[edit] Fair use in Kamui (manga)

Though the picture is subject to copyright I (Mnkybusiness212) 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 main characters of the series.
it provides visual identification of the art style of this series.
there is no free alternative depicting these characters.

[edit] Licensing

This image is of a book cover, and the copyright for it is most likely owned either by the artist who created the cover or the publisher of the book. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of book covers

to illustrate an article discussing the book in question
on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,

qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Other use of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information.

To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as described on Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline, as well as the source of the work and copyright information. Please include in your fair use rationale details of the particular edition (publisher, market & year of publication) of the edition you have used, and also acknowledge any cover artist if such artist is acknowledged in that edition's frontmatter. If the book cover is in the public domain (see Wikipedia:Public domain), then use the appropriate public domain tag rather than this one.

This image will be shown as the first cover of the Kamui series in the article. No other use.
