## Prompt

```text
Create TWO completely different anime illustrations from the uploaded everyday photo while preserving the same person's identity. Keep the facial shape, facial feature proportions, recognizable hairstyle, age impression, and overall personality consistent, but fully transform the image into a vibrant, high-quality anime style. Both images should be unmistakably animated rather than photorealistic, with expressive linework, clean cel shading, bold graphic shadows, vivid high-saturation colours, crisp facial detail, and a polished poster-quality finish.

IMAGE 1 — {style_one}
A playful, energetic anime poster with a dramatic wide-angle perspective and dynamic pose. The character has an expressive smile, lively hand gesture, and confident body language. Reimagine the background as a colourful anime city filled with neon signs, floating hearts, sparkling stars, comic speech bubbles, motion lines, kawaii stickers, tiny mascots, hand-drawn doodles, colourful geometric graphics, and fun sound effects. The composition should feel youthful, exciting, bold, and instantly eye-catching, with excellent visual hierarchy and strong social-media appeal.

IMAGE 2 — {style_two}
Create a completely different composition with a magical fantasy atmosphere. Use a cinematic low-angle perspective and graceful, expressive pose with flowing movement. Replace the original background with a whimsical fantasy world featuring glowing skies, floating islands, oversized flowers, magical sparkles, butterflies, glowing stars, cute fantasy creatures, ribbons, clouds, colourful gradients, decorative frames, and elegant anime-inspired graphic elements. The mood should feel charming, emotional, imaginative, and visually rich while maintaining a clean silhouette, expressive face, polished illustration quality, and a vibrant, premium anime aesthetic suitable for viral social-media artwork.
