Manga Story
Create a manga page in a dark, atmospheric shōnen/seinen style. Panel 1: A wide establishing shot of an old, isolated tower-like building on a hill. The architecture feels ancient and slightly ominous. Trees and uneven terrain surround it. The mood is quiet and foreboding. Panel 2: Inside the building, show a stone pedestal or altar with a small object or figure placed on top. The room is dimly lit, with shadows and ritualistic atmosphere. Panel 3: Leave this panel mostly empty or minimal — it represents a pause or transition. Panel 4: A close-up of a hand reaching out, tense and dramatic. The hand is detailed, with strong shadows and emotional intensity. Panel 5: A symbolic geometric shape (diamond-like or sigil-like), floating or centered. It should feel mystical, important, and connected to the ritual. Panel 6: Leave this panel blank or minimal — it represents a silent beat before the next page.






![[Manga Page 1 Prompt: The 3rd Rhythm - Flashback Intro]
Create a high-quality full-color manga page, Page 1. The page should be divided into 3 distinct panels with a clear narrative flow.
Overall Tone & Style: Gritty Seinen Manga, Urban Grunge aesthetic. Detailed line art, vibrant but slightly desaturated colors, sharp focus on character expressions and internal monologue.
Panel 1 (Top - Medium Shot):
Content: The protagonist (Ryo - 182cm, muscular build, stoic face) is sitting on his stock Honda Wave 110i motorcycle with a Line Man delivery bag, stopped at a city red light. He's wearing his black baggy oversized sweater, light blue baggy jeans, and a retro half-shell helmet (no visor), showing his messy hair and silver ear piercings.
Action/Expression: He looks straight ahead, calm and expressionless. The background shows blurred city traffic.
Dialogue/Text: None from the protagonist.
Panel 2 (Middle - Wide Shot, slightly above the protagonist's eye level):
Content: Shifts focus slightly to the sidewalk beside the protagonist's motorcycle. A small, innocent boy excitedly points at a passing military truck (or a prominent military poster), looking up at his mother with bright, hopeful eyes.
Dialogue/Text (Speech Bubble from boy): "Mom! I want to be a soldier when I grow up!"
Mood: Hopeful, innocent, a stark contrast to the protagonist's inner world.
Panel 3 (Bottom - Composite Panel, showing a split flashback):
Content: This panel depicts a dual flashback, a direct visual response to the boy's dream. The left side of the panel shows a dark, gritty flashback of the protagonist (younger, more intense) fiercely punching a heavy sandbag in a dimly lit boxing gym. Sweat is flying. The right side shows him wildly playing drums on a dimly lit, smoky stage, hair flailing, with extreme intensity, a drumstick possibly breaking.
Mood: Intense, raw, powerful, and slightly melancholic or regretful. The colors in this flashback should be darker, more muted, with strong contrast, emphasizing the lost passion or intensity compared to his current quiet life.
Dialogue/Text (Thought Bubble from protagonist): "A dream, huh..." (The text should appear slightly faded, emphasizing it's an internal thought).](https://media.mangaai.com/1f122118-6566-429c-b8cb-917044e6a62f.png)
