You'd think it'd be faster to check before reporting that they might be able to recover it.

a) the government said it will use public money and etc and etc.....
b) why? no fire insurance? or is arson not covered? or what! anyone know?

also.... amazed that they don't automatically back up everything at least twice, in different locations.... obviously such a catastrophe wasn't on the radar, but this is earthquake country. anyway, good that all seems to be recoverable....

What's not recoverable are 35 lives. Who's going to take responsibility for the building's nonexistent fire safety measures and pay compensation to the victims' families?

It was a main server and contained many important files and all were recovered successfully.
Much generous and kind support has come to KyoAni from within Japan, from both the Anime community, other studios who are generously planning help, and the government to help support KyoAni which is a major national Cultural Heritage. The works of KyoAni are much much much much more than "high school girls"..tho the school genre is a very significant one throughout anime ..for many reasons. KyoAni is one of the very best anime studios, making superlative series, with very fine and high quality art schemes, animation and stories. Japanese animation or Anime started in 1919, and has flourished into a vast literature of stories of every possible genre, and a high level of artistry and talent. Sadly the western view of anime is skewed by lack of understanding and awareness, and the very limited nature of western esp American Animation which is far less sophisticated. KyoAni also has maintained the highest standards of support for their staff of any Japanese anime studios, offering full regular salary, support of all kinds including child care and a compassionate and caring atmosphere of appreciation and encouragement for many fine animators, many of whom got their start at KyoAni which holds classes and training for various aspects of anime production.

Its been mentioned many many times already, but the building was up to code and was highly regarded as quite safe. Fire safety measures are made to combat accidental fires, not incendiary bombs... Nothing short of automatic fire compartmentalization of the building would've saved those people. A sprinkler system would also have done zilch in these circumstances. A supposed 60 seconds before thick, noxious gasoline-fire smoke filled the entirety of the building.
So to answer your question:
The building has sufficient fire safety measures in place.
The accused will be the one to pay compensation to the victims' families
