Fair use for Captive Hearts (manga)

Though the picture is subject to copyright I (Ninja Neko) feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

• it is a low resolution copy of a manga cover.
• it does not limit the copyright owners rights to sell the manga series in any way.
• it provides visual identification of the characters of the series.
• it provides visual identification of the art style of this series.
• there is no free alternative depicting these characters.
