Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly): - Kaito: A clumsy teenager with messy cerulean hair and wide, expressive eyes often brimming with tears. He wears a simple, oversized emerald green tunic with a brown leather belt and worn leather boots. His expression is one of perpetual shock or mild distress. He stands in a glowing stone chamber with floating magical runes, bathed in a soft blue light that highlights his youthful, unrefined features and slender build. His vibe is that of an accidental hero who is completely overwhelmed by his surroundings. - Aiko: A young woman with impossibly large, shimmering magenta eyes and waist-length pastel pink hair tied with white ribbons. She wears an elaborate white and gold shrine maiden outfit with flowing sleeves and a red silk sash. Her presence is ethereal and dramatic. She stands in a field of blowing cherry blossoms under a bright, oversaturated sun, radiating a sense of tragic importance and fragile beauty. Her features are delicate and doll-like, with a constant look of somber reflection.
