Hate being in the position of having to hope that my favorite director was 'only' badly burned or something.

Hard to say how much of it will still be usable for future projects - character designs meant to be overseen by anyone who's passed away might need to be redone, for instance, or stuff that was designed to be used in context with other material that wasn't scanned before the fire - but at the very least that's a huge relief for animation history.

IIRC (from Shirobako...) this is a big deal because an animation studio's archives are an important resource as references for training new animators.

Oh yeah, I hadn't even thought of that angle. God, that's immense.

A good thread that offers some context on what the loss means for the studio's future.
