Tekken series producer Katsuhiro Harada took to X to comment on the devastating wildfires that are currently impacting southern California. In his post, he revealed that his father is a former firefighter who wishes that he could travel to California to help deal with the disaster. 

Furthermore, Harada stated that his father was once involved in joint training with the Los Angeles Fire Department. Apparently, firefighters from LA were invited to Japan to learn about Japanese firefighting techniques. 

Wildfires are continuing to spread through drought-stricken southern California, with the ongoing Palisades fire already becoming the most destructive fire in LA’s history (source: New York Times). Harada’s post has already attracted many positive responses, with users thanking him for his father’s concern and praying for people’s safety.
