 In addition to condolences and messages of support from world and national leaders, fans and businesses raised over ¥3.3&nbsp;billion 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 cancelled or suspended.
