The blaze in Kyoto killed 36 people and left more than 30 others badly burned or injured.
A man accused of an arson attack at an animation studio in Japan has pleaded guilty to the murder of 36 people.
In a statement, Aoba said the attack was all he could think about at that time but that he never thought so many people would die. He now thinks he went too far, he said, according to the reports. About 70 people were working inside the studio in southern Kyoto, Japan’s ancient capital, at the time of the attack.
The company, founded in 1981 and better known as KyoAni, made a mega-hit anime series about high-school girls and carried out training.On Tuesday, 500 people lined up outside of the court to vie for 35 public seats available in the courtroom for the first hearing. There will be 30 more trial sessions this year before a verdict, which is expected in January.
