Dragon on the Pagoda: An Anime Serpent at Dusk

An epic anime-style dragon coils around a tall, multi-tiered pagoda at twilight. The dragon has iridescent emerald-green scales, a serpentine body, long whiskers, and sharp horns, with flowing fins along its spine and glowing eyes. The pagoda is wooden with red lacquer, gold trim, and ornate upturned eaves; warm amber lanterns hang between tiers. Mist swirls at the base, cherry blossoms drift through the air, and distant mountains glow in blue-pink dusk. Composition: cinematic low-angle view from beneath, dragon circling the roof and gripping a ridge beam with its claws. Lighting: soft dusk glow, lantern warmth, subtle rim light on scales. Style: ultra-detailed anime illustration with crisp cel shading, vibrant colors, dynamic pose, inspired by Studio Ghibli and modern manga aesthetics. 8k resolution, high-detail textures, painterly atmosphere.
