I give up. That minigame picture is just unlucky I guess. It was the snowman from spoiler[ep.26 of Aria The Natural. Alicia started it with a simple snowball, but several other people from Neo-Venezia helped make it into a big one before it arrived at this square, where it was turned into a big snowman with help from all the people living there].

Given that spoiler[7 of them were resurrected from skeletons of violently executed criminals and were then engaged in equally violent encounters,] at least 7 of them have the potential to have such a scene. As for the file name, I've seen it. It's not meaningful, since file names need not be accurate. The picture is, as far as I'm concerned, perfectly legitimate. It is merely not nearly as unique as you think.

No need to be so cynical. I know I've seen that image before, I just can't recall where, and I knew without seeing the file name that it was an X-ray image (notice that it's a cross section, not a full skeleton).

Hint #1: spoiler[This comedy series used the stuffed-animal mascot of its predecessor and made it much bigger and much more high-tech.]

Okay, limb time again Smile
Anime: spoiler[Full Metal Panic - Fumoffu!]
Character: spoiler[The karate club's Issei, getting beat up by Sousuke]
I haven't watched this series, hence the guessing.

Aww dang. I was just looking it up to confirm. Can I still change my guess? Just pretend you hadn't seen the first one..

Correct answer: spoiler[It's the opposing rugby team's captain getting kicked by Sousuke during the game. Ep.7 of Full Metal Panic - Fumoffu!. About 4:20 in this YouTube video.]

Sorry, but the one-picture one-guess rule is one of the fundamental rules of the game. Since you have already provided the answer however, I will open the field up to anyone in a first-come first-serve manner. I know this is not in the rules but there is no point in continuing with the game when the answer is already known.

I'm not angry at you, far from it; I'm happy that what I thought was an easy picture was finally guessed. However, I cannot condone the rules being broken like that. I hope you understand.

Okay, first one to post a picture gets the game. Since I cannot see a new thread having been created yet, I suppose we just use this one until jetz gets back to us.

Yah, I understand. The next person gets it then.
Bleh. If only you hadn't responded so quickly, I could've updated my guess Razz

Well yes, but since the answer was already given I had opened up the game to pictures. So someone post a picture already. Please?
