Most fans know Junko Takeuchi (born April 5, 1972) as the voice of the titular Naruto. However, she's more than that. She has a knack for voicing Hot-Blooded Idiot Hero boys as well as Bishounen in general and can play against type if needed. She is currently married to Kenji Hamada and has 2 children.
She's also the current voice of Sanrio's Kuromi, My Sweet Piano, and Gudetama.
Not to be confused with Naoko Takeuchi or fellow seiyuus Ryota Takeuchi and Shunsuke Takeuchi.
