I believe they should be deleted because these snow sculptures of copyrighted works and characters (Dragon Ball Super, Peanuts, Kamen Rider Ghost, Macross, Attack on Titan) were taken in Japan. Per COM:FOP Japan. --IDCM (talk) 14:58, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

 Keep I admit I'm not much of an expert on file eligibility criteria. But I suppose that ice sculptures, regardless of their realism, cannot be considered as products derived from the licenses concerned. --Ellicrum _{{bablute [...]}} 19:31, 5 April 2024 (UTC)

 Comment According to this website[1], Japanese copyright law also applies to ice and snow sculptures. --IDCM (talk) 15:02, 7 April 2024 (UTC)

•  Delete per nom and replies - snow sculptures are copyrighted. I think the two logos exceed COM:TOO Japan as they show some creativity/artistry. Consigned (talk) 20:56, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
