While the Hondo and Nokotsudo were untouched by fire, there are concerns about smoke and moisture damage. The temple is assessing the repair costs, and a restoration fund has been set up.
The temple sees this as an opportunity for renewal and remains committed to its mission. Updates on the restoration can be found on their website.
