My, that was sizable! I wouldn't have wanted to try to stand up during that.

But I'm really surprised at the number of buildings that collapsed in that small area. Must have been some weird movement, or ancient/shitty construction. The "shindo" was lower that what we experienced up here on 3/11, but almost no structures collapsed from the earthquake itself. Quite a few roofs had to be repaired (ours included), but no total structural failures like this one caused. Probably a movement issue, the Nagano quake being a "direct hit" which might have caused more vertical motion than the mostly lateral motion of an offshore quake.

Many of those photos are of the community hall, which is of course the place where you are meant to gather initially after a natural disaster like, say, an earthquake, before moving on as a group to the official centres...

So now they'll rebuild with something insanely overpriced just to have a "earthquake resistant" stamp on it.
