This might not be perfect, but I thought it could still be useful, so I'm sharing it.
(Feel free to modify it.)
I turned internet search on for the first half.
It felt like the camera work got better with it on.

-----------------------------------
A cinematic, high-intensity anime sequence set on a pirate ship in a violent storm at night. Strong emphasis on physical realism, dramatic lighting, and dynamic camera control.
Environment & Physics
Heavy rain, strong wind, turbulent ocean <<<Image4>>>
Visible whitecaps continuously forming and breaking.
Ship motion:
Pitching (forward/back tilt)
Rolling (side tilt)
Deck instability affects all character movement (staggering, slipping)
Water spray, wet reflective surfaces, rope tension reacting to motion
Lighting (lightning effects)
Lightning functions as:
Rim light
Strobe effect
Creates sharp shadows, silhouettes, and dramatic reveals
Princess Setup <<<Image2>>>
Princess starts near the mast
Visibly anxious, struggling to balance due to pitching
Subtle stagger and unstable footing
Kraken Emergence & First Impact
<<<Image3>>>
Ocean splits, tentacles erupt through crest waves
Tentacles wrap the ship and slam the deck
Reaction:
Princess staggers
Crew panics: shouting, slipping, colliding
Destruction
Tentacle breaches the hull
Wood splinters, debris bursts
Interior partially floods
Movement to Attack Position
Princess regains footing
Grabs fallen knight's sword
Moves toward the bow only during the attack phase
Camera: aggressive tracking with ship pitching
Heroic Attack Sequence (insert slow motion)
Pre-Attack Build
Lightning flash -> freeze-like tension
Camera begins a slow zoom-in with easing toward the princess
Leap (slow motion starts)
Princess jumps
IMPORTANT:
Enter slow motion (about 0.3-0.5 seconds)
Rain droplets, hair tips, and cloth edges become visible in detail
Lightning acts as a strobe, freezing micro-movements
Slash (maximum zoom)
At the peak of motion:
Camera:
Ease-in zoom -> accelerate into a fast zoom
Action:
Sword swings
Effect:
Bright sword trail / afterimage
Clean, sharp "slash" feeling / impact frame
Motion blur + light streaks
