In the Japanese version of Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans, Kudelia Aina Bernstein is voiced by Yuka Terasaki. In the English dub, Kudelia is voiced by Cherami Leigh. Gundam’s official cast page lists Terasaki as Kudelia, and English dub cast databases list Cherami Leigh as the English voice.
Japanese Voice Actor: Yuka Terasaki
Date of Birth
Yuka Terasaki’s official Ken Production profile lists her birthday as August 4. Her agency page does not list the birth year, so only the month and day are confirmed here from an official profile.
About Yuka
Yuka Terasaki is a Japanese actress, voice actress, and singer represented by Ken Production. Her official agency profile presents her as a performer with a long career across anime, dubbing, games, radio, and live-action work, and it specifically names Kudelia Aina Bernstein in Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans as one of her representative roles.
She is also especially known for major roles such as Tenma Matsukaze in the Inazuma Eleven GO series, Roy in Pokémon, Luca in Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D’s, and Kiznaiver’s Chidori Takashiro. Those credits, all documented on her official profile, show why she is often associated with energetic young leads, emotionally direct heroines, and youthful boy roles.
Hometown
Terasaki’s official agency profile lists her as being from Kumamoto Prefecture, Japan, and adds that she was born and raised in a shopping district in Kumamoto. I did not find a more specific officially documented hometown than Kumamoto Prefecture in the sources reviewed here.
Career Highlights
For Gundam viewers, Terasaki’s key role here is Kudelia Aina Bernstein, one of the political and emotional pillars of Iron-Blooded Orphans. Gundam’s official cast page identifies her as Kudelia, and the series’ official character pages underscore Kudelia’s central role in the story’s Martian independence arc.
Beyond Gundam, her official profile highlights a broad range of recognizable roles including Tenma Matsukaze in Inazuma Eleven GO, Roy in Pokémon, Vueko in Made in Abyss: The Golden City of the Scorching Sun, Horimiya’s Sota Hori, and Heinz in Macross Delta. That breadth helps explain why Terasaki is such a strong fit for Kudelia, who requires idealism, poise, vulnerability, and firmness rather than a single-note performance style. The last point is an inference from her documented role pattern, not a quoted critical judgment.
Full Current Filmography
The list below reflects the documented credits currently visible on Yuka Terasaki’s official Ken Production profile as of March 30, 2026.

Critical Reception
The clearest formal recognition I found for Terasaki is her association with the Inazuma Eleven series receiving the Synergy Award at the 6th Seiyu Awards, where she was listed among the recognized cast tied to the franchise. That is the strongest source-backed industry recognition I found during this check.
More broadly, her official résumé shows a long run of lead or central roles across anime, games, and dubbing, especially in youth-oriented franchises and emotionally expressive ensemble casts. That helps explain why she works so well as Kudelia: the role needs conviction and sensitivity more than sheer intensity. That final point is an inference from her documented credits, not a direct review quote.

English Voice Actor: Cherami Leigh
Date of Birth
Cherami Leigh’s birth date is publicly listed as July 19, 1988, on major filmography databases. Her official website does not display her full birth date, so that date should be treated as publicly documented rather than stated on her own bio page.
About Cherami
Cherami Leigh is an American actor, writer, and producer. Her official website describes her as being known for extensive work in video games, animation, film, and television, and her credits page highlights major roles across games, anime, and live-action screen work. For Gundam viewers specifically, Behind The Voice Actors lists her as the English dub voice of Kudelia Aina Bernstein in Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans.
Hometown
Public biographies list Leigh as being from Dallas, Texas. I did not find a hometown statement on her official website during this check, so Dallas should be read here as a publicly documented birthplace/home-base reference rather than an official self-description on her site.
Career Highlights
Leigh’s official credits page shows how broad her English-language voice career is. In games, her highlighted roles include Female V in Cyberpunk 2077, Queen Sonia in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, Manon in Street Fighter 6, A2 in NieR: Automata, Makoto in Persona 5, Irelia in League of Legends, and multiple characters in Fire Emblem.
On the anime side, her official credits page highlights Lucy in Fairy Tail, Asuna in Sword Art Online, Sailor Venus in Sailor Moon and Sailor Moon Crystal, Sarada in Boruto, Patty in Soul Eater, and other major roles. Behind The Voice Actors also identifies her as especially known for Lucy Heartfilia, Asuna Yuuki, and Makoto Niijima, which lines up with the most recognizable parts of her public profile.
For this specific Gundam query, her role as Kudelia matters because Kudelia is one of the political and emotional anchors of Iron-Blooded Orphans, and Leigh’s broader résumé shows a long pattern of voicing determined, emotionally articulate lead and co-lead characters. That last point is an inference from her documented credits, not a quoted critical judgment.
Full Current Filmography
The list below reflects documented credits currently visible on Cherami Leigh’s official credits page as of March 30, 2026, plus Kudelia-specific confirmation from Behind The Voice Actors. Her official site presents selected credits rather than a complete database-style archive, so this should be read as a source-limited documented filmography and may not be exhaustive.

Critical Reception
The clearest formal recognition I found is that IMDb’s awards page lists Leigh with 7 wins and 22 nominations across credited awards listings. I was not able to verify a Kudelia-specific review from a strong primary or major critical source during this check, so I do not want to overstate reception for this exact Gundam performance.
What is clear from the source base is that Leigh’s official site foregrounds major lead roles in both anime and games, and public voice-acting databases repeatedly surface her best-known characters at the top of her profile. That is better evidence of her standing in the field than vague fan praise, even though it is not the same thing as a formal critic review.
