## Prompt

```text
Goal: Create a dramatic vertical anime magazine-cover poster inspired by Neon Genesis Evangelion, combining a realistic full-body teenage boy in the foreground with a colossal biomechanical mecha bursting through destruction behind him.

Canvas: Vertical 2:3 poster, high-resolution, cinematic composition, pale off-white sky background with black typography and purple energy effects. The top is dominated by an oversized luxury-fashion serif masthead reading {main_title}, spanning nearly the full width and partially overlapping the mecha.

Layout: Foreground subject stands slightly left of center, low-angle camera view, full body visible from shoes to head. Behind him, one giant purple-and-green Evangelion Unit-01 mecha lunges forward from the upper right, head and shoulders huge, one clawed hand reaching in from the left, glowing magenta eyes and mouth details. The bottom third shows cracked black rubble, reflective wet ground, sparks, dust, and purple lightning streaks cutting diagonally upward. Use strong depth of field: sharp subject and mecha, smoky background debris fading into haze.

Subject details: A slim teenage boy, about 14 years old, confident but neutral pose, one hand in trouser pocket and the other relaxed at his side, looking forward. His face should be intentionally anonymized with a soft rectangular blur/mosaic over the facial features while keeping hair and body visible. Outfit has exactly 6 visible pieces: short-sleeve white school shirt, dark blue undershirt visible at the collar, black belt, loose high-waisted black trousers, white low-top sneakers, and short dark brown hair. Lighting on the boy is realistic, with cool rim light from purple energy and soft shadow under the chin.

Mecha and action details: One massive EVA Unit-01, angular armor plates, black and deep purple body with neon green accents, long horn, red glowing eyes, open mechanical jaw, aggressive crouching motion. Surround it with exactly 12 large floating rubble chunks at different depths plus many tiny dust specks and sparks. Add jagged violet lightning bolts, shattered concrete, smoke plumes, and a chaotic battle-damaged city ground plane.

Text content: Include exactly 11 distinct printed design elements on the poster: 1) the huge top masthead {main_title}; 2) small left label "NEON GENESIS EVANGELION"; 3) large left issue number {issue_number}; 4) a small black hatched rectangle under the issue number; 5) left label "TEST TYPE"; 6) large Japanese unit label {japanese_unit_label}; 7) small quote "God's in his heaven. All's right with the world."; 8) right-side character name {character_name}; 9) Japanese name text "碇 シンジ"; 10) small labels "THIRD CHILD", "THIRD CHILDREN", and "PROJECT EVA" grouped under the name; 11) a small NERV-style emblem with tiny motto text and barcode near the lower right. Add tiny technical microtext in the bottom-right corner reading "SPT", "BUSY", and "0x0x0".

Visual style: Premium anime key art mixed with editorial fashion magazine cover, ultra-detailed digital painting, sharp contrast, gritty rubble, glossy armor, violet and magenta energy, black elegant serif typography similar to high-fashion magazine type. Keep the composition poster-like, dramatic, polished, and print-ready.

Constraints: No extra characters, no additional mecha, no speech bubbles, no watermark, no modern UI frame. Keep all typography black or very dark, readable, and integrated into the poster design.
