Copy and generate

Create a retro 2.5D anime thumbnail in a cinematic 16:9 frame, showing a close-up of {argument name="character name" default="a mischievous gothic anime girl"} leaning toward the camera in a cluttered analog electronics room. She has long straight {argument name="hair color" default="black hair"} with blunt bangs, teal-green eyes, pale skin, small blush marks, pointed ears, and a wide unsettling grin with sharp triangular teeth. She wears a black top and a thin black choker, with her face centered and dominating the composition, shoulders cropped at the bottom, direct eye contact, playful but eerie expression. The background is a dim retro tech studio with exactly two visible CRT televisions: one large CRT on the left displaying bright cyan static and one darker CRT on the lower right with a small blue glow; include shelves, cables, ceiling pipes, hanging wires, old equipment, and a high window with washed-out daylight. Use a NORINORI CORE-inspired retro 2.5D aesthetic: cel-shaded anime character over a semi-realistic grungy room, thick ink outlines, muted olive-gray shadows, teal and magenta chromatic aberration along edges, VHS scanline noise, slight fisheye wide-angle distortion, low-light atmosphere, crisp face details, gritty analog texture, 1990s cyberpunk anime mood. Keep the image text-free, no logos, no watermark, no extra characters.
