Cover of volume 1 of the manga series Baby Pop by Yayoi Ogawa

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 main characters of the series.
• it provides visual identification of the art style of this series.
• there is no free alternative depicting these characters.

This image is of book cover(s), and the copyright for it is most likely owned either by the artist who created the cover(s) or the publisher of the book(s). 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 the copyright law of the United States. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information.
