By: Dan Castellano Samurai Factory president Kenichi Kashiwagi explains the motivation behind the campaign. “At the time of the earthquake and tsunami in March, we knew that there would be great instability in the lives of the people of Tohoku. Through the power of manga we aimed to provide a means for those affected to unwind and find some peace of mind.” Kashiwagi says that the initial goal was to collect 20,000 books, but due to the intense response they were able to collect over 70,000 books from all across Japan, and that books arrived from each of the 47 prefectures of Japan and from China and Korea as well.
