I can't believe someone actually burned down Studio Ghibli HQ before Citizen's United was.

Do you mean Kyoto Animation?

It was a few years ago I only saw one headline and it said Studio Ghibli was a victim of arson but I guess it was their animation studio.

It was Kyoto Animation that was attacked. They have quite a few similarities in artstyle and themes to Ghibli, and you could maybe call them a spiritual successor. But neither is owned by, or a part of, the other.

Ghibli recently released How Do You Live, probably their last film. With the last surviving founders retiring, Nippon TV will manage the studio and the museum.
