nitaKyoto Animation President States in Interview That All Materials, Computers Were Destroyed in FIre
Anything they were working on / or had worked on at that studio is gone. (KyoAni has another studio. The fire was at studio one.)
The death toll has gone up to 34 as another victim died today.
Rumors are all over the internet that KyoAni director Yashiro Takemoto (Full Metal Panic, Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya) was one of the victims. This has no been confirmed but it is possible as he is currently missing. (The Japanese, out of respect for the bereaved, are very circumspect about not announcing the names until the death is confirmed and relatives have been informed.)
