Japanese promo poster featuring Goku.

Evacuate now

“Evacuate now!” That was the loud and clear message that my folks got earlier on today. Their whole hood were under mandatory evacuation due to some crazy fire going on in there. Many houses already burned down and hoping their house will survive.
