She was meant to perform in musical 'My Fair Lady' at a theatre in Sapporo - the capital of the mountainous northern Japanese island of Hokkaido where she died - on Saturday, but didn't show.
Takako Matsu - who voiced Elsa in the film alongside Kando - said she was "speechless" at her co-star's death.
