This image is an illustration of a character or characters in a comic book, video game, or animated television program or film. The copyright for it is most likely held by either the publisher/producer and/or artist(s) producing the work in question. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of character artwork: for commentary on the character or characters in question, where no free equivalent is available or could be created that would adequately give the same information, 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. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information.

Fair use true

Fair use for Black Moon Clan edit

This image is being linked here. Though the picture is subject to copyright, I, Masamage ♫, feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

• it is a low-resolution scan from a Sailor Moon art book;
• it does not limit the copyright owners' rights to sell the wider copyrighted work in any way;
• it provides identification and illustration of these thirteen characters in the series, and is to be used solely for this purpose.
