Art style: Lo-Fi Anime.
A modest soccer training field under bright midday sun. Vertical medium shot from slightly low angle showing a lean teenage boy signing a paper while coaches watch with skeptical expressions. Harsh sunlight creates strong contrasts on the grass. Mood is tense and pivotal. Palette of vivid greens, bright whites, and golden yellows.

FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt):
Render this image in the following art style:
16-bit pixel-art blended with modern webtoon comic illustration in a retro 90s anime aesthetic — crisp thick black outlines, cel-shaded coloring with flat colors and hard dramatic shadows. Gritty urban lo-fi hip-hop vibe. Moody atmospheric lighting with vibrant neon accents (purple, magenta, red) on dark backgrounds. Subtle CRT scanline overlay, glowing elements, expressive sharp anime-influenced features, streetwear clothing.
Every surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in this idiom.
Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly):
- Young Pele: A young boy around ten years old, lean build, expressive dark eyes full of focus and hope, short curly black hair, warm brown skin, strong jawline, energetic and resilient vibe, lit by harsh sunlight casting sharp shadows on dusty ground, standing in an open dirt field with distant favela buildings in soft focus.
