Fanboy moment for MrBeast

MrBeast, a known Naruto fan, briefly fanboyed during his conversation with the renowned voice actress and didn't shy away from expressing himself while hearing Takeuchi's impression of him. Reportedly, Takeuchi will be one of several performers in charge of dubbing MrBeast on YouTube. As of now, YouTuber has plans of producing dubbed videos in Spanish, Portuguese, and Japanese. No other well-known anime voice actors are known to have signed up for the project, but with MrBeast's expansion in Japan, that may change.

Another feather on Takeuchi's hat

Takeuchi has extensively worked as a voice actress for various roles, and voicing MrBeast for YouTube would further strengthen her resume. However, the voice actress is most recognized for voicing the character of Naruto Uzumaki for the well-known popular Japanese anime series, 'Naruto'. The 51-year-old has lent her voice to characters in several television programs, including 'Hunter x Hunter,' 'Digimon,' 'One Piece,' and 'Gintama,' to name a few. She has even worked in Japanese dubs of popular films like 'Toy Story 4' and 'Zootopia.'

If you're wondering, Takeuchi is still the voice behind Naruto Uzumaki, who is currently the Hokage of the Hidden Leaf Village. The anime hero has been a crucial part of the show 'Boruto: Naruto Next Generations,' although it's currently on hiatus after running for six years.
