Prompt (original, unmodified)
Intense multi-shot action sequence on a rain-slick rooftop fish market in a vertical neon city, armored red crab samurai with six blades and glowing shell markings faces a swarm of sleek black security drones. He clacks his claws like castanets, tilts his helmet, then detonates into motion sideways sprint across roof tiles, six-sword circular parries, claw-grapples onto antenna masts, spinning shell-blocks against laser fire, seafood crates kicked into airborne cover. Neon signs flicker, rain explodes off metal, drone sparks scatter into steam vents. Camera: side-on tracking shot matching crab movement, snap zooms on claw catches, rotating overhead shot during six-blade frenzy, final heroic silhouette on roof edge with drones falling behind him. Saturated magenta and cyan neon, wet black rooftops, crisp shell reflections, absurd swagger mixed with disciplined samurai force, no dialogue.
