It's been 8 years since 3.11"
-- Nobutoshi Kanna (voice of Knuckles)

【あの日、私は…】
新宿高層ビル群のクリニックに健診で訪れ、内視鏡検査の直後でした。まるで荒波の船内にいるようでした。グニャッと曲がりながら揺れる高層ビルの恐ろしい光景は今も忘れません。出来ることから少しずつ。#感伝祭2019 #日俳連 https://t.co/H8Tc4QPxRe

"[On that day, I was...]
Right after a check-up endoscopy at a clinic in a high buildling of Shinjuku. It was like being in a ship in raging waves. I have not forgotten the fearful scene with bending scyscrapers while they were shook. We do what we can do, step by step."
 --- Junichi Kanemaru (voice for Sonic)

🔵Voice actors for Sonic series are praying for the Tohoku region, which was struck by earthquake, tsunami and nuclear power plant meltdown 8 years ago from today.
