This is one of the most controversial series out there, and although I know that's the DVD cover, this image is not doing us any favours.

Volume 1 cover and group shot.

Wow, that vol. 1 cover is even more an example of Covers Always Lie than the current image.

None of those show anything about what the series is about.... Any better DVD covers out there?

If that vol. 1 cover is used, then the current caption would be even more appropriate. But, I prefer the vol. 12 cover, as it shows the male lead as well.

[up] That first part makes me lean toward the vol. 1 cover as well, paired with the current caption.

Showing what this series is about SFW would be very difficult...

There's this kind of thing, but it's not safe given our status.

[up] Yeah, that's really not any better than the current. Here's the vol. 1 cover at 300 px.

I don't see what's wrong with the current

It really straddles the line I'd say, seeing as there's a lot of breast visible. And we're kinda in an emergency situation so...

We could just crop the current one so there isn't as much boobage.

Wouldn't that be like cutting the image in half, seeing as the boobage is right in the middle of the image?

It looks really clumsy with the boobs cropped. [1]

This any better? Same picture, same pose, just less emphasis on the boobs.

No way. We're gonna get accusations of Gorn on that one.

Fair enough. What about a crop of just the cover of this one? [1]

That's an interesting one. We'll have to crop the point where her breasts show, and maybe just keep the right side only, but it could be a good candidate.

Agree on cropping to just the right side. Not sure about cropping where the breasts are since that's also where the title of the cover is. Plus, there's nothing wrong with just a little bit of cleavage.

Crop the right side is quite good.

[up] agree nothing bad about the way that is, you see more just walking around Walmart. (Usually not the good kind too tongue.)
