Summary

An image of

Fair use for Sailor Mars

Though the image is subject to copyright, I, Scott7261, feel that its appearance in the article qualifies as fair use because, in my opinion,

• the image is contextually significant in that it is a manga drawing by the character author, one that broadens the reader's understanding of the origin, history, and identity of the character;
• it is a low-resolution image;
• it is not likely to replace the original market role of the drawing or the manga in which it appears.
