Anyone know what's going on in this one? There's one guy, and some other guy, and they're talking in broken English about...something related to the trope, I guess?

In any case, it's confusing and JAFAAC-y, and we should get rid of it.

It works, but it's very clumsy.

Can't see anything here.

I don't think it works, and agree on getting rid of it.

Same here. For a page image, it's unnecessarily wordy.

I honestly think either panel on its own would work, though the second on its own would overlap considerably with Graceful Loser.

It works (they're complimenting each other's fighting prowess) but I agree that it's clunky and needs to be replaced with something more text-efficient and elegant.

Well, I'd be fine just pulling it, but if you think we need a replacement, the bar isn't very high. Skimming the examples, something around this one or these few here might work.

[up] No to both of those. If you can't show it in one or two images, it's not very good.

It's got to be an incremental improvement at the least.

The clock is up; consensus is that the pic doesn't work very well, so it's pulled and the page is tagged. Locking up; no further action is to be taken based on this thread.
