Flower of Life (manga)

Portion used

The image only shows the cover art of a manga volume with more than 200 pages. For that reason, and because the cover art is widely used to provide visual recognition of the series, its usage in the encyclopedia does not reduce the value of the volume as a whole or the value of the series as a whole to the copyright holder.

Low resolution?

The image's resolution is high enough to be recognizable, but not high enough to produce counterfeit and therefore does not impair the copyright holder's ability to profit from the work.

Purpose of use

The image is used to provide the reader with a visual representation of the manga series (which is the topic of the article) to allow him or her to immediately see whether they have found the page they were looking for or (for the reader who has come to the page by chance) to give a rough impression as to what the article is about. Additionally, the image provides a sample of the art style used, which (as the series is a manga) is a significant part of the work.

Replaceable?

The image is not replaceable, because not only the image is copyrighted, but also what it depicts (the characters, the Flower of Life logo, etc.). Even if a free alternative could be created or obtained, illustrating the same contents, it would not be authentic as the art style would not be the same as the style of Fumi Yoshinaga and might even hurt the interest of the copyright holder through misrepresentation.
