What were they doing this season? Anything that may have set someone off? This certainly seems like a targeted attack...

Nothing was airing currently, but they had a few films in production this year, such as film sequel to their Netflix-show Violet Evergarden, a film for Euphonium! as well as Free.

I hope for a speedy recovery of all injured. Kyoani is one of the best, I hope they come back stronger.

They definitely shouldn't be putting the show ahead of actual lives, but uh... that's some pretty strong hyperbole if I've ever seen any. Nevermind that the show is pretty wholesome about non-traditional families, but who cares!

Not to derail but there will be a character introduced in the series who is basically as small as Kanna with tits larger than Lucia, so they probably are referring to that

Hope everyone pulls through.

Also, can folks stop quoting that post. If you have a problem report it lets not turn this into a dogpile thread.

HOLY FUCK. How the hell did this happen? Who the hell could have done this.

I pray they recover quickly. This is awful.

Legitimately horrific :/ Why would anyone do this to one of the few places in the industry that doesn't seem to treat its workers like shit?

Do buildings in Kyoto follow a good fire code? Kinda crazy that many people affected so fast.

Damn. Hope everyone makes it through their injuries okay and the studio gets back on its feet. They are one of the big players in the industry.

It's definitely wholesome how the big breasted one kept trying to rape the young boy

Hopefully those injured recover, and RIP to those who didn't make it.

This is so sad. I love so much of their work. I actually just watched A Silent Voice a few weeks back for the first time and really enjoyed it. I hope those critically injured pull through. I can't believe someone would do that.
