## Prompt

```text
Using REFERENCE_0 as the character base, transform the transparent/background-free anime illustration into an anime-character-in-real-life composite.

Goal: Keep the same blue angelic streetwear character design, but regenerate her as a full-body front-facing anime girl sitting on the pavement in a realistic busy city street, as if she has appeared in the real world.

Pose and character change: Change the side-profile bust view into a seated pose on the ground, facing the camera, with one knee raised and the other leg folded outward. Add oversized blue-and-white platform boots, visible legs, long ribbon straps trailing to the side, and a small white plush accessory held near the raised knee. Add a thin white halo above her head while preserving the overall angelic blue motif from the reference.

New environment: Place her in a photorealistic Japanese urban shopping district resembling {city_location}, shot from a low street-level perspective on sunlit brick pavement. Include tall glass buildings, storefront signage, billboards, and a visible large store sign reading {store_sign_text}. Use realistic daylight, lens depth, and street photography lighting.

Real-world interaction: Surround the anime character with exactly {number_of_pedestrians} real photorealistic pedestrians forming a loose circle around her. Some should hold smartphones and appear to be photographing or staring at her. Keep their faces blurred or obscured for privacy, while their bodies, clothing, phones, and shadows remain realistic.

Style: The character remains crisp 2D anime with clean line art and cel shading, while the background and people are photorealistic. Match lighting direction, shadows, and ground contact so the anime character feels physically present in the real scene. Use a vertical {aspect_ratio} composition with the character centered and slightly low in frame.

Constraints: Do not redraw her as a realistic person; preserve the anime look. Do not add captions, watermarks, or UI. Keep the composite convincing, with realistic scale, contact shadows, and crowd perspective.
