Satsumi has a game voice role, but both are basically still rookies. I suspect that her Risae might be voicing Kinue, but we'll find out tomorrow.

I think the seiyuu are being picked for their Kansai dialects. So far, all three seiyuu come from the Kansai region (Hyogo, Osaka, etc.).
Now that is pretty cool if they decide to go with Risae. I don't think I've ever heard of real sisters voicing sisters in anime.

I can never tell fake ones from the real ones. My ears must not be honed enough to distinguish one from the other.
