Hi,

I've talked to Jen and will restore the image.

The problem is that this (and the other image I deleted) are very borderline. Even if they do not portray humans, they are basically identical in form, so we have to act as though they are houman. In fact, even human-like animal forms are treated the same way as humans (if the fur doesn't give a "clothed" look, it's treated exactly as for a human)

And although, of course, manga can be considered art, that term in the Guidelines is generally used to cover old masters and other similar art.

However, there are always exceptions, and we are making one here.

You should be aware though that each time an image is (re)uploaded it is sent to our review tool for screening. That means it's very easy for us to miss that an image has been given a special pass and delete again. I will do my best not to make that mistake, but apologies in advance if that happens.
