Prompt Text

A Japanese Edo-period Ukiyo-e woodblock print (浮世絵 木版画). The overall feeling is a surreal collaboration between masters like Hokusai and Hiroshige, reimagining modern technology through an ancient lens.

**The Scene:** {argument name="现代场景" default="繁忙的涩谷十字路口"}

**Edo Transformation Logic:**
Characters wear Edo-era kimono but perform modern actions. All technology is transformed into surreal Edo equivalents:
* **Smartphones** are glowing, illustrated paper scrolls being read intently.
* **Metro stations/Trains** are giant articulated wooden centipede carriages shuffling through crowds.
* **Skyscrapers** are reimagined as endless, towering wooden pagodas reaching into dramatic clouds.
* **Robots/Mecha** appear as giant, armored woodblock golems.

The composition uses a flattened perspective with large, bold, hand-carved ink outlines (太い墨線). The background features heavily stylized Ukiyo-e wave patterns and dramatic, swirling clouds, with a distant Mt. Fuji visible on the horizon.

The image must look like a physical print, not a digital painting.
* **Texture:** Strong visible wood grain texture (木目) and rough paper fibers throughout the piece.
* **Printing Imperfections:** Pigment bleeding is evident. Crucially, simulate hand-pressed plates with slight **color misalignment (版ズレ)** for authenticity.
* **Color Palette:** Strictly limited to traditional mineral pigments. Dominant use of Prussian blue (浮世絵ブルー), vermilion red, and muted yellow ochre.
* **Lighting:** Soft, flat, shadow-free lighting with no digital gradients.

* **Aspect Ratio:** 3:4 vertical poster.
* **Extras:** Include vertical Japanese calligraphy describing the scene and a traditional red artist seal stamp (落款) in a corner.
