Even if it was a swaistika I'd still post it. You didn't design the character, and you obviously don't support the cause. I have a comedy cel of two men in a rather compromising position (and act) on my site and I haven't heard one single peep from other people. Generally speaking, cel gallery patrons are easy going.
Hope this helps

That was the show I was thinking of, but sorry if I was a little vague. When I said I'd seen other art from it, I didn't mean settei or genga. I really liked the show so I have been to several sites, and in character shrines or synopsis areas, I have seen pics of him with the patch. As far as I know nobody complained.
If you get any complaints, you could always just put a black bar over the patch close-up. The one on his face you can't see the symbol, so if you just blacked out the close-up with photoshop nobody would have a problem and I don't think it would detract from the artwork.
Personally though, I think you can just put it up with an explanation like others suggested.

Yep, this is an ancient symbol and was used in many societies. I still feel bad for the fact that this beautiful symbol will always be associated with what the Nazi did.Dustie wrote:
It's a norse pagan symbol, representative of stars and heaven. (I haven't seen it used in Buddahism, but then, haven't studied Buddist symbols either. I know that, but doubt many other people will. I agree with Baakay. I'd maybe put something in the text to explain.

I was not completely awake apparently because I meant to say does NOT jump out at you!!! 
I can't believe I didn't catch this sooner!!!Please forgive my stupidity!
