I think some of the main things you need to work on are color choices and the outlines
for example the hair has really light outlines compared to the other parts of her body
and because of it her glasses sort of pop out which I think was unintentional
as for the color choices the girl looks really washed out and drab
my guess is you took Mirai's color scheme and lowered the saturation to match the dark background.
what I think you should have done was edited the colors to have a more blue'r hue
or something to blend better with the background
I conjured this up on photoshop to give a better example of what I mean

I hope this helps

Thank you for the feedback, to be quite honest I always wanted to receive constructive comments (I rarely get that from DeviantArt).
I colored her in her normal color scheme at first, then just put in a blue multiply layer above everything, this is one of the first times I've tried to incorporate environment lighting to my drawing (I usually do a plain/white background). Also I tried to mimic the way the anime outlines her hair, and tried to lighten the other outlines using dark gray. And also the colors may have been effected when I changed the resolution of the image (I mistakenly worked on a smaller resolution than I wanted, changed in finalizing the piece), I decided to keep it that way because it gave it a "misty"/"blurry" effect. Here's the link to the original resolution version "https://i.imgur.com/sUkIfGk.png", if that helps.
And your edit is beautiful dude! I'll try in the future to actually do that.
