Some Anime Fans Suck: Kyoukai Art Stolen

06/04/08 0923 hours

According to Canned Dogs, ufotable’s art exhibit on Kara no Kyoukai (which takes place at their cafe) has suffered from several art thefts.

Canned Dogs reports that they don’t want to increase security at their cafe, which they want to keep as an open, communal kind of place…but that if thefts continue they may not be able to hold art exhibits like this in the future.

In other words: quit stealing shit, otaku thieves! You’re ruining it for everyone!
