I guess, if you remove all of the logos if there are any, and add a disclaimer, and other legal phrases. Plus if they ask them to be removed just remove them.

Am I the only one who finds it a bit...disturbing that the question is not "is it legal to download anime" but "is it legal to post screenshots from anime I downloaded"?..

lol nice point. To the OP like everyone else said, the chances of it being an issue are so slim, that it's not worth caring about. Say it's fair use, and go about your day.

Don't tell anyone you downloaded them, problem solved. Just tell them you recorded them straight from TV when they aired.

Maybe it's just because the anime downloaded is for private use, while the screenshots at the blog are open for the public view. So in that way it makes a lot of sense.

Because Crunchyroll and licensed anime doesn't exist! ALL ANIME IS ILLEGAL! IF YOU SCREENSHOT, THEY'LL KNOW!

^ To be fair, I would be surprised if the licensing agreement allowed unrestricted use of the anime licensed.

But yeah, someone already said fair use...not that anything is ever likely to come up.

I say its ok because its just examples of the anime you watched; its not the sound or the moving video just screen shots...

Uh, private use doesn't make it legal lol

That aside, I'm pretty sure theres a law somethere that lets you use clips and images from copyrighted content legally, for purposes of review and/or education for no profit. Isn't that "fair use"? Sadly, people misinterpret this to mean "upload copyrighted content ftw" :/

Fair use media, as long as your not making money off of it in some way your fine.
It doesn't think, it doesn't feel, it doesn't laugh or cry..... All it does from dusk till dawn is make the soldiers die.
