Overworked Office Hamster Manga

Full prompt
Goal: Create a black-and-white Japanese manga diary page about an overworked office hamster employee, in a humorous slice-of-life tone. Use detailed pencil/ink shading, screentone texture, thick black panel borders, expressive manga speech balloons, and a clean modern office background.
Canvas: Vertical manga page, approximately 2:3 aspect ratio, monochrome grayscale, high-resolution print look. Arrange exactly 6 panels: three narrow panels across the top row, two panels across the middle row, and one large dramatic panel spanning the full bottom row.
Setting and main character: The protagonist is a small round fluffy hamster office worker with shiny black eyes, tiny paws, soft fur, and a serious but cute expression. The office has rows of desks, monitors, swivel chairs, fluorescent ceiling lights, filing cabinets, glass entrance doors, a landline telephone, and an analog wall clock. The visual humor comes from treating the hamster like a normal salaryman.
Panel layout and content:
1. Top-left panel: Empty office after hours. The hamster has collapsed into a melted exhausted heap on the floor beside a small low desk with stationery. Add steam-like fatigue lines rising from the body. Vertical label reads {argument name="four hours later label" default="4ๆ้็ต้"}.
2. Top-middle panel: Same office, one hour after arriving. The hamster sits upright at a desk, still cute but blank and tired, with papers and a pencil cup. Vertical label reads {argument name="one hour later label" default="1ๆ้็ต้"}.
3. Top-right panel: Morning entrance scene by glass office doors. The hamster walks in carrying a small black business bag and politely greets the office. Include a speech balloon reading {argument name="morning greeting" default="ใใฏใใใใใใพใผใ"}. Vertical label reads {argument name="third obon day label" default="ใ็ไธๆฅ็ฎ"}.
4. Middle-left panel: The hamster holds an oversized black landline phone receiver with both paws, standing beside the phone base. It looks earnest and professional. Include two speech balloons: one calm balloon saying {argument name="phone answer text" default="ใฏใใใใใฎใใ ใงใ"}, and one jagged loud reply balloon from the other party saying ใใใผ๏ผใใ ใใใใใ!!ใ.
5. Middle-right panel: Lunch break at the desk. The hamster happily eats noodles from a bowl with chopsticks; steam rises from the bowl. A large landline phone sits in the foreground, and an analog wall clock shows noon. Add sound effect text ใใใซใซใซใซใ near the phone. Vertical label reads ใๆผไผใฟใ.
6. Bottom full-width panel: Dramatic dark background with strong radial speed lines and heavy contrast. The hamster is now angry and intense, gripping the oversized phone receiver, with a manga anger mark on its forehead. On the left, add a large white burst caption reading ใใใฎใใใฎๅบๅคใจใใใธใงใตใใใใชใ. On the right, add an ornate flower-decorated thought/speech bubble containing vertical Japanese complaint text: ใใใฎใใใๆฅใๅฏพๅฟใใฆใปใใใใฎใใใฃใฆใใใๆผไธญใชใฎใซใใใใชใใใใใฃใจใใ็งใฎไฝใฃใ่ณๆใใกๅบใใใใกใใฃใฆใโฆโฆใใ ใใใซ็ดใใฆๆฌฒใใใใงใใ
