44 The {{Nihongo|'''Kyoto Animation arson attack'''|京都アニメーション放火殺人事件|Kyōto Animēshon hōka satsujin jiken|"Kyoto Animation arson murder case"|lead=yes|group=lower-alpha}} occurred at [[Kyoto Animation]]'s Studio&nbsp;1 building in the [[Fushimi-ku, Kyoto|Fushimi]] ward of [[Kyoto]], [[Kyoto Prefecture]], Japan, on the morning of 18 July 2019. The [[arson]] killed thirty-six (36) people, injured an additional thirty-four (34) (including the suspect), and destroyed most of the materials and computers in Studio&nbsp;1. It is one of the [[List of massacres in Japan|deadliest massacres in Japan]] since the end of [[World War II]], the deadliest building fire in Japan since the 2001 [[Myojo 56 building fire]], and the first [[massacre]] ever to have occurred at a studio associated with an entertainment company, and the [[animation industry]].
45
46 The suspect, who did not work for the studio, entered the front door carrying about {{Convert|40|L||abbr=}} of [[gasoline]] and doused the area and several employees before igniting it. After setting himself on fire while lighting the fuel, the suspect attempted to flee, but was apprehended by police about {{convert|100|m|ft}} from the building. Witnesses stated they heard him accusing the studio of [[plagiarism]]. After awaiting his recovery from life-threatening burns for more than ten months, the police arrested 42-year-old Shinji Aoba on suspicion of murder and other offenses on 27 May 2020,<ref name="nikkei_20200527_suspectarrest"/> and he was formally indicted on 16 December 2020.
47
48 In addition to condolences and messages of support from national and international leaders, fans and businesses raised over {{JPYConvert|3300000000|year=2019|to=USD|showdate=no}} in Japan and over US$2.3&nbsp;million internationally to help the studio and its employees recover. As a result of the incident, some works and collaborations by the studio were delayed, and several events were suspended or cancelled.

50 ==Background==
51 [[File:Kyoto Animation Studio 1a.jpg|thumb|260px|Studio 1 prior to the arson attack, May 2015]]
52 [[Kyoto Animation]] is one of Japan's most acclaimed [[anime]] studios, known for titles such as ''[[Haruhi Suzumiya#Anime|The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya]]'', ''[[K-On!]]'' and ''[[Clannad (video game)#Anime series|Clannad]]''.<ref name="nyt_20190717_arson"/> It has several different locations in [[Kyoto]]: Studio&nbsp;1 (in [[Fushimi-ku, Kyoto|Fushimi]] ward); Studio&nbsp;2 (the head office), and Studio&nbsp;5. Their merchandise development division is in [[Uji, Kyoto|Uji]], one train station away from Studio&nbsp;1. The building was used mainly by the animation production staff, and was constructed in 2007.<ref name="sakuga_20170310_tour"/><ref name="sakuga_20180825_kyoanihistory"/><ref name="ntv_20190719_building" />
53
54 In the year leading up to the attack, Kyoto Animation had received over 200 [[death threat]]s.<ref name="hr_20190724_arson" /> Company president Hideaki Hatta said they did not know if the threats were related to the incident, as they were sent anonymously,<ref name="nhk_20190719_deaththreats"/> but he had informed police and lawyers of them. After the [[National Police Agency (Japan)|National Police Agency]] were informed of these threats in October 2018, they temporarily patrolled the head office at the time.<ref name="hr_20190724_arson" />
55
56 ==Incident==
57 The fire began with an explosion<ref name="jiji_20190718_explosion"/> at around 10:31&nbsp;a.m.<ref name="fdma_20190718_officalreport"/><ref name="bbc_20190718_arson"/> (01:31 [[UTC]]) when the perpetrator walked into Studio&nbsp;1 and set the building on fire with {{Convert|40|L||abbr=}} of [[gasoline]].<ref name="nyt_20190717_arson" /><ref name="independent_20190718_arson"/> The perpetrator bought the gasoline {{Convert|10|km|mi|abbr=on}} away from the building, and it was believed that he walked to the building with the gasoline being carried on a platform trolley.<ref name="jt_20190730_daysbefore"/> The police believed that the gasoline dispersed on site mixed with the air, causing the explosion at the start.<ref name="ks_20190719_arson" /> The perpetrator is reported to have been shouting {{Nihongo|"Die!"|[[wikt:死ね|死ね]]|Shine!|lead=yes}} as he carried out the attack. He also poured gasoline over some individuals before setting them alight—setting himself on fire in the process—causing them to run out into the street in flames.<ref name="nyt_20190717_arson" /><ref name="kyotoshimbun_20190718_fire"/><ref name="deadline_201907_suspectmotives"/>
58
59 As the fire grew by the entrance, staff members were trapped inside the building. Twenty bodies were found on the stairs from the third floor to the roof, evidently indicating that the victims were attempting to escape.<ref name="asahi_20200119_report"/> Tomoaki Nishino, associate professor at Disaster Prevention Research Institute of [[Kyoto University]], estimated that the second and third floors were almost filled with smoke within 30&nbsp;seconds of the explosion.<ref name="dpri_20190802_analysis"/> The perpetrator fled the scene but was chased by two Kyoto Animation employees and soon collapsed on the street, where he was apprehended by police.<ref name="sankei_20190718_shine" /><ref name="hr_20191220_interview"/> Multiple unused knives were found lying by the scene.<ref name="nhk_20190718_knives" />
60
61 The fire was under control at 3:19&nbsp;p.m. (06:19 UTC), and extinguished at 6:20&nbsp;a.m. on the next day (21:20 UTC).<ref name="fdma_20190718_officalreport"/> Once the rescue efforts had ended, it was confirmed that all people in the studio had been accounted for.<ref name="nhk_20190718_arsonrescue"/> The building did not have [[fire sprinkler]]s or indoor [[fire hydrant]]s due to its classification as a small office building,<ref name="st_20190719_bldgfiresafety"/> but had no deficiencies in fire safety compliance during its last inspection on 17 October 2018.<ref name="fdma_20190718_officalreport"/> Initial reports claimed the studio's entrance required employee pass-cards, but the door was left unlocked as the studio was expecting visitors.<ref name="mainichi_20190718_arson"/><ref name="livedoor_20190721_doorlock"/> However, this was inaccurate: there was no security system in place and the door was always left unlocked during business hours.<ref name="nhk_20190723_door"/><ref name="sankei_20190731_witness"/>
62
63 The arson attack destroyed most of Kyoto Animation's materials and computers in Studio&nbsp;1,<ref name="ann_20190719_s1materials" /><ref name="sponichi_20190719_computers"/> though a small portion of [[key frame|keyframe]]s were on exhibition in [[Tokushima (city)|Tokushima]] and hence spared destruction.<ref name="nhk_20190722_artexhibit"/> On 29 July, Kyoto Animation reported that it successfully recovered some digitized original drawings from a [[computer server|server]] that survived the fire.<ref name="kyodo_20190730_server"/>
64
65 The attack is reported to be one of the [[List of massacres in Japan|deadliest massacres]] in Japan's history since the end of [[World War II]]<ref name="guardian_20190718_arson"/> and the deadliest building fire in the country since the [[Myojo 56 building fire]] in 2001.<ref name="cnbc_20190719_arson"/><ref name="complex_20190718_joeprice"/> It was considered "suicidal terrorism" by one criminology professor at [[Rissho University]], as the attack was reportedly intended to be a suicide mission by the suspect.<ref name="ctvnews_20190719_suicidalterrorism"/>
66
67 ==Victims==
68 Seventy people were inside Studio&nbsp;1 at the time of the fire.<ref name="asahi_20200119_report"/> Initially it was reported that 34&nbsp;people had been killed before two more later died at a hospital.{{efn|name=Victims|Many sources reported on the number of victims.<ref name="ks_20190719_arson"/><ref name="nhk_20190719_deathcount"/><ref name="asahi_20190719_count" /><ref name="nhk_20190718_death"/><ref name="asahi_20190719_deathtoll" /><ref name="sky_20190718_arson"/><ref name="livedoor_20190727_deathcount"/><ref name="jt_20191005_deathtoll36"/>}} Some victims were difficult to identify, according to the Kyoto police, because they had been burned beyond recognition.<ref name="nytimes_20190720_bodyidentify"/> [[Autopsy]] results released on 22 July 2019 revealed that a majority of victims had succumbed to burns (rather than [[carbon monoxide poisoning]]) due to the quick-spreading fire.<ref name="cna_20190722_death"/><ref name="jt_20190722_autopsies"/> DNA testing was done to aid in identifications, which lasted up to a week after the attack.<ref name="nhk_20190720_dna"/> It was reported that two-thirds of the victims (at least 20) were women, as the studio was known for hiring female animators.<ref name="nyt_20190719_women"/> The president of Kyoto Animation asked the media through the police not to release the names of the victims out of respect for their families, stating that "releasing their names does nothing to serve the public good."<ref name="reuters_20190721_reasons"/> On 25 July, Kyoto police said they had identified all 34&nbsp;victims and had started to return the bodies of the victims to their relatives.
69
70 Meanwhile, discussions were ongoing with Kyoto Animation on if, when, and how to reveal the identities of the deceased.<ref name="nippon_20190725_victimid"/> Some of the families released their own findings early to the media regarding the status of their loved ones. The family of color designer [[Naomi Ishida]] confirmed her death on 24 July.<ref name="mainichi_20190724_status"/> Animator, scriptwriter, and director [[Yasuhiro Takemoto]] was confirmed dead by his family through DNA testing on 26 July.<ref name="nikkei_20190726_status"/><ref name="kobe_20190724_status"/> The first post-fire death occurred on 27 July which brought the number of deceased to 35.<ref name="livedoor_20190727_deathcount"/> On 2 August, Kyoto police released the names of ten victims (including the people already mentioned) whose funerals had finished and relatives' consents obtained, and it was confirmed on the same day that animation directors [[Yoshiji Kigami]] and [[Futoshi Nishiya]] were among the dead.<ref name="kyotoshimbun_20190802_casualtylist"/><ref name="variety_20190803_yasuhiro"/> The remaining 25&nbsp;victims were officially revealed on 27 August as the social impact of the case became a factor.<ref name="jt_20190828_victims"/><ref name="nhk_20190827_victims" /> On 4 October 2019, it was announced that one woman died from [[septic shock]], bringing the death toll to 36.{{efn|name=Injured}} <!--UNREFERENCED OR POORLY REFERENCED ADDED MATERIAL WILL BE REMOVED ASAP--><!-- Do not list the victims names here unless they are already notable as per [[WP:NOTMEMORIAL]]. For extended POV on this policy, see [[Wikipedia:Victim_lists]]. -->
71
72 It was initially reported that 36&nbsp;people were injured, but this figure dropped to 34 after two people later died at the hospital.{{efn|name=Injured|Reports on the number and identity of the injured and dead from many sources.<ref name="fdma_20190718_officalreport"/><ref name="nhk_20190718T2124+09_deathcount"/><ref name="tr_20190718_arson"/><ref name="nhk_20190719_deathcount"/><ref name="livedoor_20190727_deathcount"/><ref name="nyt_20190719_women"/><ref name="kyunghyang_20190719"/><ref name="nhk_20190720_woman"/><ref name="jt_20191005_deathtoll36"/><ref name="ann_20190918_injured"/><ref name="kyodo_20190918_injured"/>}} By 18 September it was reported that all thirty-four (34) people injured in the attack were no longer in life-threatening condition. Some still remained in the [[intensive care unit]] (ICU) with severe burns.{{efn|name=Injured}} According to the South Korean [[Ministry of Foreign Affairs (South Korea)|Ministry of Foreign Affairs]], one of the injured victims was a South Korean woman.{{efn|name=Injured}} Those who were reported safe include animation director [[Naoko Yamada]], who directed ''K-On!'', ''[[A Silent Voice (film)|A Silent Voice]]'' and ''[[Liz and the Blue Bird]]''.{{efn|name=Injured}}
73
74 == Accused ==
75 {{Nihongo|'''Shinji Aoba'''|青葉 真司|Aoba Shinji}}, a 41-year-old man, was identified as the suspect by police and a warrant was quickly issued for his arrest.<ref name="ap_20190720_name"/><ref name="nhk_20190720_aoba1"/>
76
77 According to locals, a man resembling Aoba was spotted near Studio&nbsp;1 days before the incident.<ref name="bbc_20190720_daysbefore"/><ref name="kyodo_20190726_photo"/><ref name="guardian_20190729_daysbefore"/> He was also reported to have visited several places of interest related to ''[[Sound! Euphonium]]'' around the city in days prior to the attack.<ref name="guardian_20190729_daysbefore"/><ref name="jt_20190730_daysbefore" /> Immediately following the attack, Aoba fled the scene after being chased by employees of the studio but was apprehended by the Kyoto Prefectural Police near [[Rokujizō Station]] of [[Keihan Electric Railway]], about {{convert|100|m|ft}} from the studio;<ref name="asahi_20190720_arrest"/> Aoba was then taken to a hospital with severe burns to the legs, chest, and face.<ref name="mainichi_20190718_arson"/><ref name="nhk_20190718_arsonrescue"/>
78
79 During his transport to the hospital, Aoba admitted to having started the fire,<ref name="ann_20190717_fire"/> possibly for revenge,<ref name="variety_20190719_motive"/> accusing the studio of {{Nihongo|"ripping off" or "[[Plagiarism|plagiarising]]"|[[wikt:パクる|パクリ]][[wikt:やがる|やがって]]|pakuri yagatte}} his novels.{{efn|name=Plagiarism|Plagiarism reports from many sources.<ref name="sankei_20190718_shine" /><ref name="cnbc_20190719_arson"/><ref name="chunichi_20190718_arson"/><ref name="asahi_20190718_pakuri" /><ref name="express_20190718_fundraiser" /><ref name="mainichi_20190719_motive" />}} In spite of this, Hatta had initially stated that there is no record of anyone submitting work to their annual writing contest under Aoba's name.<ref name="ann_20190720_presresponse"/> Subsequently, Kyoto Animation revealed that they had received a draft novel from Aoba; however, it did not pass the first-stage assessment and was forgotten, and its contents were confirmed to have no similarities to any of their published works.<ref name="jt_20190731_suspectnovel"/><ref name="hr_20190730_suspectnovel"/> It was later revealed that Aoba believed that a scene about buying discounted meat in the fifth episode of ''[[Tsurune]]'' was similar to one in the novel he submitted.<ref name="kyodo_20200718_anniversary"/><ref name="soranews_20210108_copyclaim"/>
80
81 Due to serious burns sustained during the incident, Aoba was transferred to a university hospital in [[Osaka]] for further treatment, where he received necessary [[skin graft]] surgery.<ref name="nhk_20190720_aoba1" /><ref name="nhk_20190720_aoba2" /> On 5 September 2019, it was reported that his injuries were no longer considered life-threatening,<ref name="fnnprime_20190905_suspectrecovery"/> but he was still being treated in an ICU and required [[respiratory assistance]] from a [[ventilator]].<ref name="ks_20190917"/> Aoba regained speech on 18 September and began rehabilitation by 8 October, being able to sit up on a wheelchair and hold short conversations. The police obtained a warrant for his arrest, but were required to await confirmation from doctors that Aoba could withstand confinement.<ref name="kyodo_20190918_speech"/><ref name="kyodo_20191008_rehab"/>
82
83 On 14 November 2019, he was moved to another hospital in Kyoto for final rehabilitation.<ref name="jiji_20191114_suspecthospitaltransfer"/> He recovered from most of his injuries and acknowledged responsibility for the attack. He expressed feelings of remorse and gratitude towards the hospital staff, who he said treated him better than anyone had ever done in his life.<ref name="ks_20191115_hospitalkindness"/> On the other hand, he told police that he lit the fire because Kyoto Animation had stolen his novel, and that he expected to get the [[Capital punishment in Japan|death penalty]].<ref name="jt_20191111_questioning"/> Most of Aoba's burned skin was replaced with experimental artificial skin as the victims were prioritized to receive donor human skin first.<ref name="sky_20191127_arsonskingraft"/><ref name="telegraph_20191127_experimentalskin"/> The use of artificial skin on such extensive burns is the first case in Japan.<ref name="sky_20191127_arsonskingraft" /><ref name="telegraph_20191127_experimentalskin"/>
84
85 By January 2020, Aoba remained hospitalized, and was unable to stand or eat unassisted.<ref name="nhk_20200118_suspectstatus"/> On 27 May 2020, Aoba was judged to have sufficiently recovered from his burn injuries, and he was formally arrested on suspicion of murder and other charges.<ref name="reuters_20200527_suspectarrest"/><ref name="bbc_20200527_suspectcharged"/> He was [[indictment|indicted]] on 16 December 2020 on murder and other charges.<ref name="asahi_20201216_murderchargefiled"/><ref name="variety_20201216_murderchargefiled"/>
86
87 Aoba had a prior [[criminal history]] and a [[mental illness]]. In 2012, he robbed a convenience store with a knife in [[Ibaraki Prefecture]] and was subsequently jailed for three-and-a-half years.<ref name="docomo_20190718T1923+09_suspecthistory"/><ref name="cna_20190719_motive"/> It is speculated that Aoba's mental illness may reduce his maximum penalty for the attack from a death sentence to [[life imprisonment]].<ref name="japantoday_20190817_mentalillness"/>

89 == Aftermath ==
90 One month after the arson attack, the victims began to return to work at the other Kyoto Animation studio.<ref name="soranews_20190809_returntowork"/><ref name="soranews_20191021_returntowork"/> As of October 2019, while the number of Kyoto Animation employees decreased from 176 to 137, 27 of the surviving 33 victims returned to work with several having decided to take extended breaks to cope with the stress and anxiety brought by the attack.<ref name="soranews_20191021_returntowork"/><ref name="asahi_20191019_press"/><ref name="yomiuri_20191018_press"/>
91
92 The company has issued an official statement, requesting respect for the victims and their family members, and also stating that all future statements will be either through the police or their lawyers.<ref name="kyoani_20190721_statement" /> The demolition process of the building was completed on 28 April 2020, with no further plans for the site revealed.<ref name="nhk_20200428_demolition"/> In an earlier interview, Kyoto Animation's president Hideaki Hatta stated that he was considering replacing the building with a green public park and a [[memorialization|memorial monument]].<ref name="ann_20190720_presresponse" /><ref name="yomiuri_20190720_presresponse" /> However, residents in the neighbourhood did not wish for a memorial to be built as it would destroy "the peaceful lifestyle [of local residents]".<ref name="soranews_20191226_nomemorial"/>
93
94 Due to recovery efforts, Kyoto Animation had suspended the 11th Kyoto Animation Awards, an annual award to discover new stories.<ref name="comicbook_20190815_futureplans" />
95
96 In November 2019, the studio had decided to continue [[Vocational education|training programmes]] for aspiring animators, in which trainees would be trained in movies, sketching and animations. Upon graduating from the programme, outstanding trainees could be recruited by the studio after being examined further.<ref name="jt_20191122_kyoanitraining"/>
97
98 ===Impact on productions===
99 In response to this incident, a publicity event for the upcoming 2020 film ''[[Free! (TV series)#Films|Free!]]'' was cancelled. Kyoto Animation's ''Sound! Euphonium'' collaboration with [[Keihan Main Line]] was delayed, as was episode 4 of ''[[Humanoid Monster Bem|BEM]]''.<ref name="bem_20190730_ep4delay" /> The third episode of [[David Production]]'s ''[[Fire Force]]'', an anime series about firefighters and people dying from [[Spontaneous human combustion|spontaneous combustion]], was delayed for a week and released with the colours of the fires and narration modified.<ref name="bbc_20190719_name" /><ref name="fireforce_20190719_suspension" /><ref name="comicbook_20190719_delays" /><ref name="ann_20190726_fireforce" /> Subsequent episodes of ''Fire Force'' were dealt with in a similar manner.<ref name="ann_20190726_fireforce" /> The studio decided to push on with premiering ''[[Violet Evergarden: Eternity and the Auto Memory Doll]]'' on 3 August 2019 at Germany's [[AnimagiC]] convention as originally scheduled.<ref name="animagic_2019_programme" /> The Japanese theatrical screening dates were extended by an extra week<ref name="twitter_20190727_violetextended" /> and honored the victims in the end credits.<ref name="kyodo_20190905_endcredits" /> Despite earlier news reports stating that the upcoming ''Violet Evergarden'' film would premiere as scheduled on 10 January 2020,<ref name="livedoor_20190726_nodelay" /> it was later announced to be delayed to 24 April 2020, but as a result of the [[COVID-19 pandemic]], the premiere was again delayed to 18 September 2020.<ref name="ann_20191109_violetrescheduled"/> An episode for ''[[Animation x Paralympic]]'', originally due to be aired in August 2019, was eventually announced as cancelled on 28 February 2020, citing that they would be unable to complete it in time for the [[2020 Summer Paralympics|2020 Paralympics]].<ref name="ann_20200228_paralympics"/>
100
101 === Measures to prevent recurrence ===
102 The [[Fire and Disaster Management Agency]] and the [[National Police Agency (Japan)|National Police Agency]] issued a notice on 25 July 2019, requiring gas stations to maintain sales records of people purchasing gasoline in refillable containers, which conform to fire safety regulations.<ref name="fdma_20190725_gasolinesaleregs"/> Each record is to contain the buyer's personal information such as name, address, the purpose of the purchase, and quantity purchased.<ref name="fdma_20190725_gasolinesaleregs"/> Although the notice had no legal backing, most buyers complied with this additional requirement voluntarily.<ref name="ks_20200131_gasolinesaleregs"/> This measure was formalised with the relevant regulations revised and coming into force on 1 February 2020 to make the sales records mandatory.<ref name="ks_20200131_gasolinesaleregs" /><ref name="ann_20191027_gasolinesalelaw" /> Post incident, the Kyoto Municipal Fire Department formulated guidelines for evacuation in the event of arson or terrorism and encouraged the installation of evacuation ladders.<ref name="asahi_20191017_evacuationguidelines"/>
103
104 As a result of the attack, police in Japan are becoming more vigilant with each death threat directed at other companies (especially [[Khara (studio)|Khara]],<ref name="ann_20191016_kharathreat"/> [[Square Enix]],<ref name="siliconera_20190809_squareenixthreat"/> [[Animate (retailer)|Animate]],<ref name="japantoday_20191215_animatethreat"/> and ''[[Clannad (visual novel)|Clannad]]'' developer company [[Key (company)|Key]],<ref name="soranews_20190908_keythreat"/> all of which alluded to the incident and also received similar Kyoto Animation-referenced death threats), were able to identify the source of the threats, and arrested anyone who sent the threats before any further attacks transpire at these companies.
105
106 === Memorial ===
107 A tribute video was published, one year after the attack, on 18 July 2020.<ref name="twitter_20210718_memvid"/> The company had considered holding a memorial ceremony, but in light of the [[COVID-19 pandemic in Japan]], decided against it.<ref name="kyoani_20210702_nomemvisit"/> Similarly, at 10:30&nbsp;am JST on 18 July 2021, Kyoto Animation's YouTube channel streamed a 13-minute video to "provide a place for everyone to share their thoughts and feelings".<ref name="youtube_20210718_livestream"/> In the video were messages and tributes from the studio, from staff members, and from the families of some of the deceased. The company requested that fans not visit the former site of Studio&nbsp;1 on the anniversary of the incident to respect the wishes of local residents.<ref name="kyoani_20210702_nomemvisit"/>
