Pray for KyoAni :(
An arson attack on an anime studio in Japan has left at least 33 people dead and dozens injured in Japan?s worst mass murder in nearly two decades.
The perpetrator, who was also injured and has been taken into police custody, walked into the 1st Studio building of Kyoto Animation in Fujimi ward, Kyoto, at about 10.30am. He poured what is suspected to be petrol in multiple areas of the building before igniting it.

This is such a tragedy in so many ways. The loss of life, trauma, and seemingly how senseless it was. It's numbingly sad. I'm waiting for what kind of specific fund KyoAni puts forward that I can contribute to.
Rest in peace.

It isn't KyoAni themselves, but Sentai Filmworks has a GoFundMe for that exact purpose.

I find that GoFundMe to be questionable even if they fully intend to give every cent to Kyoani, so I would recommend buying from their digital store to give them money directly: https://twitter.com/zetsubouzhainu/status/1151765219976368129?s=19

Data on Kyoto Animation Server Survives Arson Attack
Data in the server on the first floor of the fire-ravaged Kyoto Animation (KyoAni) studio has been recovered intact, according to Japanese media reports. The recovered data include digitized key animation drawings.
The server was surrounded by four concrete walls that shielded it from fire and water damage. A lawyer for KyoAni, Daisuke Okeda, told the media: ?Data recorded on the server has been recovered without loss.? He offered his ?heartfelt thanks? to the unnamed specialists who had saved the data.

Kyoto Animation Arson Suspect Submitted Novel to Studio Contest
Kyoto police and a lawyer for Kyoto Animation have confirmed that arson suspect Shinji Aoba submitted a work to the company?s novel contest.
[?]
According to attorney Daisuke Okeda, the work submitted by Aoba didn?t make it past the first round of judging in the novel contest, which KyoAni started 10 years ago. The winners are turned into paperback volumes and made into animations. Because it did not progress past the first round, Aoba?s novel was not kept in studio records or shared by studio staff.
