I would hope that Sentai's Go Fund Me is for the victims and their families. Sentai should make it clear if that's the case. |

I want to send my deepest condolences to Kyo Ani, the entire anime industry, and to Japan in entirety for this terrible incident. I feel terribly for their suffering this horrible and senseless violence the current society unleashed on this group of people who only wanted to entertain and delight their audience.

I can’t imagine the pain those people went through, being burned alive is one of the worst ways to go.

Most deaths in a fire isnt from the fire itself but rather smoke inhalation. Shortness of breath leading to headaches and disorientation into unconsciousness then death. The only way someone went out in actual fire is if there was an actual explosion and fireball. Those that died most likely didn't go in an agonizing way. Its not much comfort though. |

What the Hell!?
Why would anyone just set off a random fire?

33people... that's roughly half of the people within the building. Even if the crime was pre-meditated and planned out, I wonder how the death count got so high in the first place. Did the fire spread really quickly onto the upper floors?
What's even more sickening are the responses of many people from outside the anime-community. I've browsed a bit on Facebook and people seem to be having fun making jokes about "why didn't they Naruto run out of the building?" to "at least there's less anime". People get worked up over murders of a single person and then there's those who take the chance to make jokes out of this because it's anime-related. |

Dear God.
May the souls of those who died find peace. This is heartbreaking. |

We live in an age where on the internet there are several not-so-nice-people. So although it is sad, in reality there are many people who are happy with this tragedy. |
