${DynamicText("About this genre (loading...)")}

This implementation differs from prior [yin-yang] implementations by using shading, rather than black circle insertion, as the input.
This aligns it with [Isowatari] and other [shading genres|../new?search=shading], with the added benefit of allowing all [shading variants|../variants#shading] without adaptation.
