Hardboiled

Black-and-white Japanese manga. Skin and clothes use only white and sharp black planes. Long faces with sharp cheekbones, narrow eyes, dry hard thin lines. Simple black-and-white hair, about seven heads tall. Flat pale-grey background and white fog, a few faint distant contours. No blending. No text, speech balloons, panel borders, signatures or watermarks. Subject: An adult man and woman gaze at a small blank letter on a quay in the morning. Short hair and shoulder-length hair, plain jackets. Show faces and hands chest-up, a railing and distant shore.
