The basic trope is "a woman who gets dangerous after being wronged by her lover". This is just a rampaging female, and well, it may illustrate a number of different tropes.

I'd be fine with pulling, although for the sake of not leaving things imageless, here's some suggestions for replacement: [1] [2]

Very weak but suggesting images for pages that don't have one is 10x more important than improving pages that do have one, let alone removing without replacement (which should really only be done when the image is harming the page, because it's misleading or otherwise worse than nothing).

Here is 1.1 with the bug painted out: [1]

I don't like the current because it's really tiny. :(

I kinda like 1.1.

[up] I also kinda like that. :)

It is what it is.

I've had this one on my to-do list for ages now, thanks for making a thread about it. [tup] The current needs to go regardless of replacement, it's completely reliant on the caption. 1.1 is alright, but the man looks like he's using the woman in the middle as a human shield and that hurts its effectiveness for me. I dunno if 1.2 will look good at wiki size.

I could whip one up from a scene in Stand Alone Complex where Motoko goes into an unstoppable rage and fires an anti-material rifle point blank into her enemy's cockpit hatch, but that would require multiple shots. I'm not really seeing the scorn or rage from either suggestions.

Well, if the suggested images in the OP isn't a particularly good illustration, I'm fine with having the page BUPKIS, because the current image is too small, ugly, and seem to illustrate Roaring Rampage of Revenge (or just rampage, really) rather than this trope.

That said, some more suggestions:

[1][2] [3] [4]

Similar to 8.4 except with politer language. [1]

Just realized that 8.3 would be a better illustration for If I Can't Have You…, which doesn't have a page image yet.

8.3 can go on If I Can't Have You… for me. I somehow like 8.4 and 9.

Do we need to get permission for 8.3?

8.4 is great...9 works but isn't quite as effective.

I still dig the OP's suggestion @ 2.1.

I just think this is funny.

[up][up]For 8.3, I didn't see any Copyright sign (unless the "By Moses David" qualifies) and it's being used in many other sites and blogs, so I don't think it's necessary. I don't really know which one is the original source, actually.

[up]It's blurry though.

[up] Here it is cropped, wiki-sized, and PNG'ed. Better? It's fake, but I like it just as much as 8.4.

EDIT: Here's a different version:

Current must go as it's ugly.

I favor 1.2 or 8.1, personally.

A crowner might be in order.

Done. Didn't add in 8.3 since it's more illustrative to another trope.

Is it alright if I upload that one on If I Can't Have You…?

Yeah, go ahead; if we get a takedown notice from the artist we can always remove it. Make sure to tag that page for this thread.

[up]Isn't Death by Woman Scorned more about the justification of the murder (and how it made the murderer more sympathetic), rather than the murder itself?

I can live with the leader going to Death by Woman Scorned if that's what it comes down to.
