Kyoto Animation marks 5 years since fatal arson attack

What a terrible crime.

Aoba, 46, who was sentenced to death in January at the Kyoto District Court for the attack, has since appealed the ruling at the Osaka High Court.

Smoke inhalation didn't kill all of these people. Quite a few burned to death, just about the most horrible way to die. They produced some of the great anime and were a force in the field. The loss of talent was huge. This was one of the worst acts of murder ever.
