IDENTITY PRESERVATION INSTRUCTION: Using the uploaded pet photo as reference, preserve the animal's exact physical characteristics including breed-specific features, fur color patterns, eye color, distinctive markings, size proportions, and unique facial features while transforming into anime style.

TRANSFORMATION DESCRIPTION: Convert the pet into a high-quality anime character illustration. The transformation should maintain the pet's recognizable identity but reimagined with classic anime aesthetics: expressive large eyes with detailed highlights, stylized fur texture using anime shading techniques, dynamic pose or action stance appropriate for the pet's personality, and anime-style accessories or background elements that complement the character. The pet should look like it belongs in a popular anime series-cute, expressive, and full of personality.

STYLE AND AESTHETIC PARAMETERS:
- Art style: Japanese anime/manga style with cel-shading and vibrant colors
- Character design: Chibi to semi-realistic anime proportions (adjustable)
- Eye treatment: Large, expressive anime eyes with sparkle highlights matching pet's eye color
- Fur texture: Stylized anime fur using flowing lines and gradient shading
- Lighting: Soft cinematic lighting with rim lighting for depth, anime-style color gradients
- Color palette: Vibrant and saturated anime colors, maintaining original fur colors
- Facial expression: Cute, heroic, or adventurous expression fitting the pet's breed
- Background: Optional anime-style background (cityscape, nature, magical realm, or simple gradient)
- Additional elements: May include anime-style accessories like scarves, collars, or fantasy items

TECHNICAL QUALITY PARAMETERS:
- High resolution, 4K, detailed
- Sharp focus on face and key features
- Professional anime illustration quality
- Clean line art with smooth edges
- Consistent shading and lighting throughout
- Recommended aspect ratio: 1:1 (square) or 4:3 for character portraits

NEGATIVE PROMPT GUIDANCE: Avoid: distorted animal anatomy, unrealistic proportions that break character recognition, blurry facial features, loss of pet's distinctive markings, poorly drawn paws/ears, inconsistent art style, low resolution, oversaturated colors, uncanny valley effect, mixing multiple anime styles, excessive noise or artifacts

USER CUSTOMIZATION: {additional_context}

TIPS FOR BEST RESULTS: Use a clear, well-lit photo of your pet's face with visible eyes and distinctive markings. Front or slightly angled photos work best. Specify in additional_context if you want a specific anime style (e.g., "Studio Ghibli style", "Shonen action style", "Cute chibi style", "Pokemon-style", "Sailor Moon style"). You can also specify desired mood, accessories, or background preferences.
