A Japanese man reportedly angry that his ideas had been stolen admitted Tuesday to starting a fire that killed 36
The blaze that ripped through the studios of Kyoto Animation in July 2019 shocked the anime industry and its fans in Japan and around the world.
He is accused of breaking into the studio’s building, spreading gasoline around the ground floor and setting it alight before reportedly shouting “drop dead”. Aoba’s motives were unclear but there have been claims that he accused the studio of stealing his work, which Kyoto Animation has denied. The doctor, Takahiro Ueda, said he was not allowed by police to talk about the incident, but he told Aoba that “taking someone’s life is not acceptable for any reason”.
