This was taken from VS Battles. But I figured I would share this with you guys because anime is a big relevant part in many social networks, and as a sign of solidarity with the victims of this attack. Here's the post:

Considering Anime, in general, is rather fairly large on this site I thought it was only natural we extend our condolences to the family and members involved in the Kyoto animation attack.

For context

"Kyoto Animation, one of Japan’s most popular anime studios, was reportedly set ablaze this morning in Japan. A man in his 40s was allegedly seen pouring a flammable liquid and setting it ablaze. He is currently in police custody.

At around 10 am, residents living near the studio called the police, saying there was the sound of an explosion and that smoke was emitting from the building, which is located in Kyoto’s Fushimi area."

as of the recent update over 25 workers have been confirmed dead and several more missing, this is an absolute tragedy.

For those of you unaware Kyoto Animation was responsible for many huge anime hits such as Lucky Star, Clannad, K-On!, Nichijou, Violet Evergarden, Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid, The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, full metal panic and many more.

For those of you who can or want to, Sentai Filmworks has a set gofundme to help those at Kyoto animation.
