Neon Katana Anti-Hero

Neon Katana Anti-Hero

9:16 frame, ultra-dramatic slow motion. A lone anti-hero walks down a deserted neon-lit street at midnight under sheets of rain. His long coat drenched, hair plastered to his face. He carries a katana that drips black liquid light, each drop leaving glowing trails on the wet asphalt. Surrounding skyscrapers are broken, their holographic ads glitching and warping into monstrous shapes and faces. A blood-red moon looms low and fractured like cracked glass. Shadows along the walls stretch unnaturally, twisting into clawed hands reaching toward him. Cinematic lighting with high contrast, rim light on the figure, neon reflections on puddles, volumetric rain shafts. Hyper-realistic textures: water beads, soaked fabric, metal, and cracked glass rendered in fine detail. Gritty cyber-gothic atmosphere, haunting and powerful mood. Shot with shallow depth of field, slight motion blur for speed and slow-motion effect, dramatic wide-angle composition. Style: artistic, creative, cinematic realism, high dynamic range, detailed post-processing, film grain, moody color grading.
