Hi @TeamYouTube my entire channel with 183k subscribers had just been demonetized, this channel is my job and only income. I can't just lose the monetization like this, I have rent and bills to pay. What is happening? HELP @grandayy

Using an image of a show falls under fair use.

yes but like i just said, legally 'fair use' doesn't exist, YouTube can be held accountable now and even sued because you used a copyrighted image without permission. Fair use or not, in a court of law it doesn't matter.

Music artists from around the world let people use their songs but the artist claims the revenues which is more than fine. I don't see a problem with a channel using a background picture of an anime in a video. Ghibli studio won't go to court over a video with 10k views even 100k

You are basically saying ''I'm not going to get caught, so I'm doing nothing wrong''.
