Art style: Lo-Fi Anime.
Wide shot of the Protagonist standing abruptly in the middle of the room, looking around in fear. The room is now darker, with shadows seeming to move in the corners of his vision. His breath is visible in the cold air.

FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt):
Render this image in the following art style:
16-bit pixel-art blended with modern webtoon comic illustration in a retro 90s anime aesthetic — crisp thick black outlines, cel-shaded coloring with flat colors and hard dramatic shadows. Gritty urban lo-fi hip-hop vibe. Moody atmospheric lighting with vibrant neon accents (purple, magenta, red) on dark backgrounds. Subtle CRT scanline overlay, glowing elements, expressive sharp anime-influenced features, streetwear clothing.
Every surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in this idiom.
Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly):
- Protagonist: A man in his late 30s, with tired eyes and a melancholic expression. He's dressed in simple, modern clothes that contrast with the old house. His hair is slightly disheveled.
