Yesterday, Mazin-san visited the old SEGA HQ in Ohtorii.
Today, he discovered that the SEGA logo on the 2nd building was removed at last.

昨日まであった大鳥居2号館のセガロゴが、ついに取り外されてしまったようだ・・・。

捨てるならください。

He says if the logo will be destroyed, he would have it instead...
Or will it be used somewhere else?

3.11 is the day not to be forgotten in Japan. 8 years ago from today, a massive natural disaster, followed by a man-made disaster, destroyed the Touhoku region of Japan. There are still thousands of victims who have not recovered from that day.

Some of the voice actors of Sonic series expressed their concern and prayer for those affected on Twitter. (some examples below)

おはようございます
3.11から8年

"Good morning
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.
