Prompt used for the sample

Very simple black-and-white manga. ONLY heads and hands retain ordinary shapes. The torso is a thin trapezoid PLATE. Each arm is TWO LONG, WIDE, FLAT RECTANGULAR STRIPS joined at sharp corners; each forearm is longer than the torso, ending in an ordinary hand. Shoulders are flat plates. No rounded arms, belly, muscles or cylindrical volume. Thin hard outlines, a little flat halftone, dot eyes, at most two clothing folds and one background shape. Mostly blank white paper. retro showa-era gag style: round, thick lines of even weight; eyes as white circles with black dots, a big round nose and thick lips; one or two star or spiral symbols. Finished style (where it differs from the above, follow this): hard sharp ruler-straight lines, a few flat halftone screentones in key areas, dot or dash eyes, iconic simplified face, recognizable heads and hands; torsos as thin trapezoid plates, arms as long wide flat rectangular strips joined at sharp corners, without muscular volume, the area behind the figure left white; the place suggested by only one or two simple shapes, deadpan, quietly funny mood. Subject: An adult man and woman look surprised at a broken small umbrella in a local waiting shelter. Short hair and a short bob, plain jackets. Show both complete figures from head to feet, only a bench and the umbrella.
