As I posted on your G+ page, this is atrocious over-reaching. You are clearly posting fair use reviews and not "scans". Because of your site and your site alone, I've bought over $250 worth of art books of various types (mostly Japanese, too).
I think to prevent other idle low-level middle management wannabes from doing the same, you might want to put an information link in the top bar (Maybe simply "日本語") where it takes you to a page which clearly explains, in Japanese:
* Your site is for reviews only
* Fair use policy
* Your scanning/video review policy
* Testaments from us that they make sales because of your blog.
...followed by your Japanese translated review stream.
Basically get in front of the issue before it hits you again.
Maybe one of the translators in the audience could assist here?
