Fair use rationale[edit]

It is believed that the use of this image, Megatokyo - 0619.png, qualifies as fair use in the article Megatokyo because:

• The image resolution has been greatly reduced from the original, so copies created from it would be of very inferior quality.
• The use of this image does not impair the copyright holder's ability to sell the original work in any way.
• No substitute is available under a free license, nor could one be created that would provide the same information.
• The image contributes significantly to the article, due to it being used as an illustration for Megatokyo's technical similarities to manga, such as panel layout, prose style and character interaction, as well as the type of subtle humor displayed in the later strips.
