(masterpiece, best quality, minimalist sumi-e illustration, clean ink brush strokes, limited detail, wide negative space),
a lone swordsman in simple silhouette form, standing or frozen mid-slash,
black ink character with flowing ponytail and kimono shapes suggested by minimal curved strokes,
the only color: a single vivid slash arc trailing from the katana — glowing in red, blue, and gold,
abstract background: faint bamboo outlines or soft ink gradients fading into white space,
composition: large empty margins, strong contrast between black figure and colorful slash,
flat paper texture effect, no shadows, no excessive detail,
atmosphere: poetic, symbolic, quiet power, elegant restraint,
