This is from aoisora2525.com/kyotoanimation_20190719/ which unfortunately doesn't provide sources for every claim: - On the day of the attack, a film crew from NHK was scheduled to visit KyoAni's studio to do some filming for a documentary. NHK wrote about their film crew having an appointment with KyoAni in the first revision of one their articles on the fire, but silently edited that fact out a few hours later: archive.fo/LWelh archive.fo/zaqIU
- NHK told KyoAni to relax security that morning so the film crew could go in and out unhindered. That's why the perp was able to simply go in and out of the unlocked front door.
- KyoAni's most renowned directors were all present in studio 1 that day because NHK said they wanted to do interviews with them.
-The NHK crew actually was very close nearby when it happened, after the perpetrator ran out he was filmed by the crew's director from his car.
- Supposedly KyoAni had locked the emergency exit on the rooftop roughly a week before because they had received complaints that some employees were throwing down cigarette butts from the rooftop.
(Abe) is behind this, his plan is to kill the SOLs and Moe
Austin Moore
I don't think this is all bad luck, but mostly planned. I am not sure, but I think NHK probably had told other studios that they interviewed before to relax the security, so all the arsonist had to do was know the date and time NHK would interview Kyoani. Then, the arsonist would also easily assume most directors would be there that day if there is a NHK interview. The rooftop might be the only bad luck if true, since there is no way to plan that out, but everything else definitely seems planned.

Easton Foster
conflicting reports about the rooftop some say the firemen report it wasn't locked chimney effect could have dragged a lot of burning smoke to the highest leak point pretty rapidly

David Ortiz
What was the reason the arsonist did this? Somebody please explain, why did he kill 34 people? This is so sad. Clannad is one of my favorite Animes.
Jordan Bennett
if only one person had gun, all these people would be alive
We don't know. But there are two popular theories: 1. It was a trainfag who was triggered that KyoAni "stole" his catchphrase. 2. The arsonist participated in Kyoto Animation's LN contest and lost. But they still adapted his novel without paying him anything. People suspect that the "stolen" series is Free. Both of these "theories" are based on speculation and I wouldn't be surprised if both of them are wrong.
Adam Davis
Aren't Abe and NHK enemies?
Nicholas Reyes
>1. It was a trainfag who was triggered that KyoAni "stole" his catchphrase. Debunked.
Kevin Young
Stealing his LN sounds dumb theory because it would make other authors not write for KyoAni if they were known to steal, and also if they did actually owe him money then he could settle it in court. Unintentionally taking his catchphrase and triggering the autism of a trainfag seems more believable. Only time will tell what actually happened.
Tyler Nguyen
KyoAni head stated that the arsonist never submitted anything to them.
Nathan Edwards
Free is based on High Speed LN (3 years after the event), so it shouldn't be free if they indeed stole his work.
Michael Foster
trainfag is innocent they're still alive and shitpopsting
Chase Myers
KyoAni used to hold a lot of LN contests, where the best ideas submitted to them would be adapted to anime. Of course, doing so would mean profit splitting. Supposedly, the guy in question sent a LN that's similar to the plot of Free!, and when he found out it's been adapted to anime even though his LN was rejected, he felt betrayed. Probably thought to himself that he lost $100M due to being copied, he burnt the whole studio down.
Matthew Ramirez
They are. NHK is trying to frame Abe
Josiah Turner
What are you even talking about? The guy was a nutjob with mental illness background and it's most likely it was all in his head
Henry Cooper
>2. The arsonist participated in Kyoto Animation's LN contest and lost. But they still adapted his novel without paying him anything. People suspect that the "stolen" series is Free. This makes zero sense if you just think about it for a few seconds, and all of these dumb theories are based on an eyewitness report that said perp screamed "they ripped me off". If that actually happened then it could literally be anything.
Huh? Wasn't it original work? How old is High Speed LN?
Cooper Wilson
This is what mental illness looks like. Why are all kyoani haters schizophrenics?
Jaxon Foster
You're forgetting that a poor NEET doesn't have the experience or money to go to court. Also, Lawyering up and suing is more of a US thing. I think both theories are wrong, trainfag just sounds like an 5chan troll who liked the attention.
Wasn't aware of that, I haven't followed this that closely. I only knew that this were the popular theories.
There's a large conflict of interest present here. Even moreso because the "stealing" if it happened was likely a decision by the president.
Mason Bailey
He was referring to the daily death threats the got in e-mail, not the LN contest.
>The suspect was apprehended for stealing underwear in his 20s
Tyler Gray

>KyoAni's most renowned directors were all present in studio 1 that day because NHK said they wanted to do interviews with them. Yamada's safety was confirmed quite early on, so she likely wasn't at the building at the first place. Ishihara and possibly Ishidate are also said to be safe.
>Supposedly KyoAni had locked the emergency exit on the rooftop roughly a week before because they had received complaints that some employees were throwing down cigarette butts from the rooftop. Firefighters confirmed it wasn't locked.
Austin Long
No, the characters are based on the LN. High speed is also released in 2013 and it is written by other person. The story is mostly based on Haru's trauma so I don't really know what they stole.
Wyatt Kelly
Yeah the door wasn't locked. When the dude set fire on the staircase it became like a chimney, the people who used it would have to go up a staircase without breathing in the pitch black of the smoke, they had no chance.
Liam Taylor
It's completely bizarre if you think about it. He claims they stole something from him (police stated the man said the word "novel" in conjunction with "stolen"), but KyoAni only adapts works and doesn't make original content. All their works can be tied back to a very specific author, so if anyone was to blame, wouldn't it be the original author and not the studio? The only thing that he could be referring to is KyoAni's novel submission for amateurs, but he never submitted anything (neither in death threats nor to the contest), and even if he did, which work would it tie into?
It makes me wonder if he's even talking about his own idea being stolen. Could he simply be a crazed fan of a novel that they adapted and he feels like they "stole" it from just by adapting it? Maybe it wasn't even about anime at all, and the guy was just sperging about something else that was loosely related to the studio. Or maybe it's minor like, a single episode of something episodic played out sort of like a story he wrote or thought up and he flipped his shit over that. The motive, if plagiarism is blurry as fuck.
Michael Cox
Isn't that magazine a tabloid? Do they have a proof?
Kevin Sanchez
The eyewitness is a lady who helped the arsonist from being burned in front of her household. She actually heard the guy screamed that line to the police who questioned him before they took him away. It is not a theory, unless the perp lied to the police.
Adrian Bennett
>KyoAni's most renowned directors were all present in studio 1 FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK. JUST GIVE ME CLOSURE ON TAKEMOTO ALREADY.
I just looked it up, anime and the light novel came out at the same time, but anime must have been in production for a 1.5~ years, so most likely novel was written to expand the anime series. Anyway, Free is a six year old franchise. If Kyoani had stolen his idea, he could have sued them or at least complained on 2ch, which is what happens in these kind of situations. The fact that he hasn't said a thing about it on 2ch or anywhere else on internet, just further proves this "stole his ln" story is pure bullshit. There's not even any source for this story, it's all speculation based on a single eye witness report saying he screamed kyoani ripped him off.
David Thomas
>Many victims of an arson attack on a Japanese animation studio were young with bright futures, some joining only in April, the shaken company president said on Saturday, as the death toll climbed to 34.
>"Some of them joined us just in April. And on the eighth of July, I gave them a small, but their first, bonus," he said.
>Fifteen of the victims were in their 20s and 11 were in their 30s, public broadcaster NHK said. Six were in their 40s and one was at least 60. The age of the latest victim, a man who died in hospital, was not known.
>Fumiko Shimizu, 91, who lives close to the building and watched the fire from her balcony at home, said she regularly greeted the staff she met in the street.
>"I used to see them going to the convenience store in groups of six or so to buy lunch boxes. There were a lot of young people, in the twenties and thirties. They died so young when it would be alright for somebody like me to die anytime," she said.
Ryder Foster
In those fucking news report that aired on Japanese tv channels? There are a few of them on youtube.
Logan Sanders
What he said was パクりやがって, that's not something you can make a conclusion out of
as long as he's got functional eyes and a mouth there is hope
Luis Jones
The lines were "小説を盗まれた" and followed by "パクりやがって". Seriously, user. I am not convinced that Kyoani actually ripped him off but as for now, that is the only thing we know after he was sent to a hospital and left unconscious until now.
Mason Kelly

Jeremiah Powell
stop being a retard across every thread, you already know hes gone. if he was fine and just 'missing' someone would have called his cellphone by now.
the only reason they havent pronounced them dead is because they haven't sifted through the buildings ashes enough to find whatever remains of his bones
the only other scenario would be that he's in bad enough condition that he'd be better off dead and will never be able to live any semblance of a normal life again, coma, then permanent life support and forever infected wounds submerged in burn tanks
>But they still adapted his novel without paying him anything. People suspect that the "stolen" series is Free But he's still credited as the author of the novel, no? Or did they slap some random name instead and refuse to give him the credit?
Isaac Robinson
>if only one person had gun, the gasoline would have been ignited even earlier
Isaac Ortiz
I don't know, user. We might just know the truth once the arsonist wakes up and confesses to the police of his actual motive. But for now, the novel and ripping him off are the only thing that are being reported in the news so far, besides he making loud noises in his neighborhood making other residents uncomfortable.
Bentley Rivera
I still can't believe Barisaku-kun would do something so terrible.
So let me get this straight >abe wants increased birthrates >NHK want decreased birthrates >abe would burn down kyoani to force moeshitters and fujos to go outside >NHK burns down kyoani to make it look like abe did it >... >raise birthrates in the process or are you implying it's a sort of depression double cross where the trauma forces the otaku even deeper into NEETdom?
Jace Cook
The thing is those are just theories, and probably false. The most likely scenario is that he had an idea or wrote something, and KyoAni animated something similar unrelated to his work. We know he was not mentally healthy. The only fact we for sure know is that he said they stole something from him, we don't even know what. He may have been just rambling random stuff for all we know.
Cooper Morgan

Keep in mind a lot of this is just shaky rumours. Don't take something as fact just because other people repeat it.
Barisaku isn't a single person. No one can shitpost at that level by himself.
Nathaniel Wright
I hope nips grilled NHK. Lax the security when many people and higher-ups present please, this is a crazy and very stupid request. KyoAni also not without blame, there were only so many workers there, with most being young women, I'd imagine that they would know the smokers in question. Just scold them or cut their salaries, now the poor door ended up being blamed and guilt because it won't opened because some stupid fucker decided to lock it.
Carter Adams
Dumberry.
Thomas Perry
>It was a trainfag who was triggered that KyoAni "stole" his catchphrase Already debunked.
>The arsonist participated in Kyoto Animation's LN contest KyoAni's president said the arsonist had never participated in any of the contests.
Cooper Cruz
How close is Kyoani to the nearest train line? Maybe he just needed a bigger light source?
Honesty, the possible theory is just he's bullshitting while spouting some generic tropes that he claimed his or what he meant by "stole/rip-off" is he thought Kumiko would be Reina but ended up with Suuichi (meaning he's a butthurt y/u/rifag). However, if the latter is true, the media should already publish it since they already went to the home (I don't know if they entered the house or not though).
Josiah Brooks

Samuel Richardson
I don't think that Kyoani did steal anything, but there's nothing that straight up debunks the theory. But the evidence is just based on conjecture and eyewitness reports that the aronist said that they "ripped him off". I'm 99,99% sure that this is false. The truth will come out with time.

The ripping off theory is completely out of the question just because kyoani is so devoid of any original thought, it's impossible for them to steal anything from anyone.
Asher Sanchez
Wouldn't the heat have damaged the lock by the time the firemen got there?
John Carter

Dominic Adams
>2. The arsonist participated in Kyoto Animation's LN contest and lost. But they still adapted his novel without paying him anything. People suspect that the "stolen" series is Free. that's inventive, but not the original theory.
The original theory bouncing around 2ch was he submitted a LN to Kyoani to get published and was rejected. Then a similar LN pops up as a Kyoani "award winner". This guy thought Kyoani rejected his idea then had one of their in hour authors steal the concept and rewrite.
There never was any mention of "free" or any specific novel, or even mention of an anime in production with the original rumor.
Levi Anderson
The perpetrator is known to be a mental case. Dude tried to steal a convenience store not so long ago so the prospect of him doing arson for petty claims of plagiarism isn't so far fetched.
>Dude tried to steal a convenience store >steal a convenience store
that's an ambitious crime? what gave him away? the 7/11 being dragged down the street?
Nathan Torres
from* but yeah. I don't think we can trust a word from a crazy person if he claims something that can't be backed up.

Nicholas Martin
They are guns you faggots, not flamethrowers, the gasoline won't just spontaneously combust like it does in a movie upon being shot
Xavier Cox
Nothing to do with yuri or trains. He thinks Kyoani stole his light novel since anyone who submits their work to Kyoani's light novel contest gives them the rights to it. > It works like this: KyoAni holds a contest, writers submit their entries, and the best are adapted into anime. Chunnybou, Free, Kyoukai no Kanata and Violet Evergarden were born from this system. But their adaptations are very loose and free. They take what someone poured their heart and effort into, and turn it into something else entirely. Their novels are never licensed to the west. They usually end after 2 or 3 volumes, despite the anime series going on for many seasons. To me, this feels like KyoAni doesn't really care about these authors, but only uses them as stepping stones for their projects.
What's the point? The chance they actually copied him or that he submitted anything is very fucking low. What's the point of this speculation and theory crafting?
Brandon Baker
The perfect crime.
Connor Sanchez
A gun bullet is propelled by burning combustible material, and the bullet itself is very hot. It can light gasoline easily.

Cooper Long
Literally speculation out of thin air. All we know is he's a nutcase who said something about them stealing a novel. What does that quote about submitters have to do with it? He was obviously not someone whose work was adapted by them, his name is already fucking public. Who wrote that quote anyways
>All we know is he's a nutcase who said something about them stealing a novel That's what I said
>What does that quote about submitters have to do with it? Explaining how Kyoani's contest works
You're trying to suck Kyoani's dick so hard you turned off your brain and lost your reading comprehension.
Grayson Clark
Based NHK Making the anime industry great again
Ryan Gomez
The only LN that they adapt faithfully is Violet Evergarden, really. That's because the work is actually winning the award. Most likely the other LNs are licensed because they liked the characters (but don't really like the story). This is why all the stories they "adapted" from contender winners are almost original despite the characters are in the LN.
Brayden Murphy
You're trying to make it sound like there's anything to it when that is EXTREMELY unlikely.
Gabriel Sanchez
Yeah, kyoani almost went full fujoshit with their new way. Now we can go back to cute girls doing cute and fun things!

Anthony Nguyen

Cooper Hall
unless the bullet is an incendiary/mine/tracer it’s not going to be setting off gasoline easily. Gasoline has a very narrow concentration range in which it will ignite, the high temperature spark or open flame needs to contact that region of the vapor concentration gradient to ignite. stuff like hydrogen gas on the other hand will deflagrate at practically any concentration range if oxygen is present
Mason Sullivan
Alright, I'm retarded and so are all the other people peddling this shit. A quick look at nip wikipedia reveals that Free anime is loosely based on the High Speed light novel which was one of the honorary winners of the 2nd Kyoto Animation Award (2011). The only original kyoani series is Tamako Market and that one was created by Yamada, Yoshida & Horiguchi. There's also Munto but that was made long before they started doing the annual KA award and publishing light novels under KA Esuma Bunko label. Can we put this stupid theory to rest now?
Also, looks like KA paid good money to the winners. On top of a publishing and potential anime adaptation deal. Fucking psychotic assholes were slandering kyoani by calling it a scam. They've been hard at work slandering their name and trying to justify the massacre by saying kyoani plagiarized the guy, and also stole other people's works, so they deserved it. How and why did kyoani attract the craziest of haters?
Josiah James
You seem like one of those people that needs to understand why it happened. Here's the thing: there was no meaning. These deaths are meaningless. They died for no reason, as hard as it may be to accept.

if the building had been equipped with an ejection system this could have been avoided, like a fighter jet canopy they have cordite in every door and window and in case of fire or earthquake it blows them all out at once and the people can escape as a series of rockets shoots them out the side of the building and they land harmlessly in the grassy fields surrounding the building
Gabriel Thomas

I fucking hate smug assholes trying to look cool while polluting the air. Of course Kyoani couldn't afford an extra janitor to put and clear bins on the roof or a containment room for smokers, which is supposed to be a norm in offices now.
The roof door was not locked according to the firefighters.
Anthony Bennett
No official statements yet. Only missing one we keep hearing about is Takemoto, and only confirmed alive one is Yamada.
Isaiah Garcia
You don't even need a janitor to do this. It's such a simple task that anyone can do it in seconds which is why this story about the door being locked for this reason sounds like nonsense to me.
Owen Adams
No one wants to smoke in a smoke box and of course they can't be smoking in the office proper.
They could start a fire.
Matthew Morgan
Japanese companies don’t use a janitor for this, regular employees do it on a rotating schedule smokers don’t smoke to look cool, it helps them calm their nerves and gives them a kick to get some more work done. smoking addiction may be shit and I hate cigarette smoke, but there’s a reason salarymen smoke so much and it’s not to try and look cool

You could mandate ownership of full-auto AKs in Japan, and their crime rate would stay low. Just as the crime rate among white Americans is low. Niggers in half a dozen shithole big cities account for the vast majority of gun crime in America. Taking rights away from white people because niggers can’t responsibly handle them is like telling a grown man that he can’t have a steak because babies can’t chew it.

Luis Smith
Besides the fact that gasoline isn't that easy to ignite, an armed man would have initially asked him to drop on the ground, and he would have probably complied, or otherwise would have taken careful aim before shooting.
Ian Lopez
He wheeled in two 20l jerrycans of gasoline and also had a bucket to spread it around. As soon as the fire started there was an explosion probably the cans igniting.
