First: The image is backwards. It's an english wiki, put your stuff in the english direction

Two: The image is all text. It works as well as a quote:

No matter what I may do, I will always be forgiven. Why you ask? It is because I am beautiful!

Look ! We've lost nothing, and in fact, this is EASIER TO READ!

Seems ok to me....Didn't we already have this thread?

Pulled.

[up][up][up]We did already have this thread, but I have to agree with Ghilz and INUH. The image itself is completely superfluous. And might actually detract a little, as the woman doesn't appear to be especially attractive.

The image is fine, but a properly-sized cut would be better.

[up][up] good point... I was more talking about the pulling because of right to left was a bad reason alone which the other thread went over.

I am drawing a blank on a replacement image though.

Yeah, really, this had no reason to be pulled. Can we find another image? Maybe. But as it stands it's a good enough image.

Un-pulled until we come up with a better one.

She's a great example, but that image doesn't show the trope.

[up][up] Doesn't show she gets her way because of her looks.

The text bubbles of the former image say: "No matter what I do, I will always be forgiven. Why, you ask? It is because I am beautiful!" The graphics communicate virtually no information, except possibly that a female is speaking, which seems unimportant.

Depending on many variables, it may be okay if the text does a lot of work, but all of it? Bad image.

There is a scene of she literaly kicking a puppy in the anime, only for everyone to promptly cheer her on after she fakes a moe apology.

Two screenshots couldwork, maybe?

I'm thinking just put that line of hers in as a page quote and leave it at that. I did a search but this is about all I could come up with, and that's not much better than the current one.

^ That one, cropped and stacked.

some caption text

...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.

[up] That doesn't really fit the "Screw the Rules" part of the trope very well.

Rhymes with "Protracted."

Yeah, it needs that first panel for the setup.

Bump...should we go with a new version of the last webcomic example or just leave this with a quote or two and no pic?

[up] Looks good, but I'd resize it down to a small enough point that the smaller text in the last panel is still legible...as is, it'll be huge on the page.

I think the last panel alone works for the trope.

[up] Mmmmm...no, the last panel alone feels like a trope other than this one.
