The building did not have fire sprinklers or indoor fire hydrants, due to its classification as a small office building. Ishida was the first victim to be identified as deceased by her parents. She was found dead on second floor of Studio 1, and the police determined that she died at approximately 10:40 a.m. from carbon monoxide poisoning. Ishida had worked at Kyoto Animation for 26 years.
