Suggestion: Razor Sharp Hand

Id like to suggest a replacement for the current picture which in my opinion is pretty unclear.

This screencap from Lucky Luke Ballade of the Daltons might work better. Drawback: its kind of a potentially offensive stereotype of a Chinese person. Im personally Asian and not really offended by it but some people might.

Depicting a person with any ethnicity in a style that involves exaggeration or caricature is going to offend someone by definition. I think if we can get a clearer version of that picture, we should go with it.

This is fine, in terms of offensiveness.

The only problem is the image quality, not the content. Find a higher quality screencap and we're good.

I can't see what's happening in either the current or the OP. Can I vote Remove Without Swapping Yet (RWOSY)?

We can sure pull the current; I have no idea what's happening there.

[up] He's supposed to be launching Sword Beams with his hand, though it's not very visible and it doesn't really show the trope.

If you can get a version of the OP that isn't so horribly artifacted, then that will work fine.

The suggestion is better. Not good, but better.

...What is the attitude towards manga scans? I found a pretty good image from Toriko, but I could only find the manga version, and I don't want to accidentally break any site rules by linking to a scan.

Number 10 fixed the issues I had with the page image and I think it's good.

10 is good. It's swapped in. potholed, and tagged. Caption or no? I lean toward no.

Support @10, do not like @17 for being more of an In-Joke.

I'm partial to the punny caption myself.

I love the pun. It's up, but the last word is potholed to Pun instead of Incredibly Lame Pun. Locking up.
