"Draw a cute, expressive cat in the style of Japanese manga. The cat has large, round eyes with sparkling highlights, a small nose, and a playful expression. Its fur is soft and slightly fluffy, with clean, bold lines defining its body. The cat is sitting with its tail curled around its paws, looking up with curiosity. Use a minimal color palette with soft pastels, and add subtle shading to give depth. Include a few small details, like whiskers and paw pads, that enhance the manga aesthetic while keeping the overall design simple and adorable."
