A gritty bootleg anime VHS flyer in 2:3 vertical format, inspired by late-90s Japanese anime rental tapes, pirated fansub culture, underground Akihabara posters, worn Tokyo alleyway advertisements, and damaged VHS sleeve scans. The entire composition should feel like a rare anime OVA bootleg discovered in a dusty Tokyo rental shop in 1999, then photocopied, rescanned, fansubbed, and reposted across old internet forums for years. Reimagine the attached character as a dramatic anime freeze-frame from a lost 1990s OVA. Do not recreate the original uploaded pose or composition. Instead, redraw the character in a completely new dynamic full-body pose with cinematic anime framing, aggressive perspective, emotional action energy, and a different camera angle. The character should feel like an authentic cel animation screenshot captured mid-scene rather than a pasted PNG cutout. Use rough faded paper textures with visible wrinkles, fold marks, xerox degradation, ink bleed, crushed blacks, blown-out highlights, uneven photocopy contrast, and damaged print artifacts. Add thick white photocopy-style outlines and rough imperfect masking around the character, with subtle torn xerox edges and halftone print textures. Layer authentic VHS-era visual artifacts throughout the design including: VHS tracking distortion, timestamp overlays, CRT scanlines, subtitle burn-ins, chromatic bleed, analog signal corruption, low-resolution compression artifacts, faded barcode labels, Japanese rental stickers, production serial numbers, warning labels, tape inventory markings, fake episode numbers, and photocopy registration misalignment. Include stacked vertical Japanese typography, cryptic production codes, faded anime promo text, fansub group markings, and bold black-and-white paper cut-out typography reading: ["ENTER YOUR NAME HERE"]. The composition should feel chaotic but believable, with strong negative space and imperfect balancing like real underground anime media from the late 90s. No clean modern design, no scrapbook craft aesthetics, no smooth edges, no generic collage kits, no centered symmetry, no corporate polish. Heavy analog media decay, emotional cyberpunk anime atmosphere, underground DIY zine energy, authentic VHS bootleg realism.
