come on now, did you honestly think someone was going to outright admit they were using a pseudonym when directly asked?

Who is Estelle Link?


I know the voice... Christina Kelly is great as Sao To Me; guys, you've been dubbing things for years, names should be the easy part by now... anyway, I'd thinking Yumiko is played by Serena Varghese. At least, I think so as voice and delivery match.

I'll just go with "It's an odd choice" and leave it there. I only heard this clip. The Sao Tome thing is enough of a red flag in this trailer.


I went to Serena Varghese's Youtube channel (I made sure it was really her, and it was.) and asked if she is indeed playing Yumeko using the "Estelle Link" pseudonym, her response was "No, but I'll look into it." I'm not sure if she's lying in order to avoid breaking NDA or she's not comfortable admitting it. I'm gonna have to agree with your speculation here that Serena is indeed Yumeko, what do you think? Are you sure it's really her?
Its obviously Serena Varghese she can't fool longtime dubbing fans with such a comment.

I listened to one of her other characters. I picked her role as Asfi in Danmachi and compared it with Yumeko's voice. The voices and tones were a near perfect match so I guess you're most likely right. I'm now like 95% sure Yumeko's redub VA is Serene Varghese.

Speaking of Anime Limited, they have had the UK license for Kakegurui since 2018 and on their last update for it a year ago, they cited Netflix as the reason they have yet to release it there because of issues with getting the materials including the English dub.

So Sentai's redub wasn't exactly unexpected and it'll be interesting to see what becomes of the UK release now.


It has been confirmed now that the UK set will only have the Sentai dub.

don’t expect an answer buuut i expect the Netflix dub licensing was a problem to get, looking forward to the release either way


Yeah - it's a long and complicated story (not a very interesting one either), can't wait to release it too
