2B from NieR:Automata stands in a wide stance, a sword raised overhead in one hand and the other on her hip, in light haze.

The final frame puts the blade up high. 2B stands facing the camera in a wide stance, one arm stretched up to lift the sword overhead and the other hand set on her hip, chin raised behind the blindfold.

Faint haze drifts across the gray studio backdrop, and a cool key light from the front right cuts through it with firm contrast. From a slightly low angle the figure is seen at full length, and the raised arm and silver hilt form a diagonal reaching toward the upper left corner. Under that light the pale embroidery on the dress stays sharp, and the silver bob stands out against the black collar and sleeves.

After lunges, turns and guarded stances, the sequence ends on something upright and still: a confident pose held steady rather than an attack in progress.
