In a recent interview, rising voice acting star Aleks Le opened up about his remarkable journey in the industry. Le, who has lent his voice to characters in hit anime and video game franchises like "Demon Slayer", "Solo Leveling", and "Ne Zha", has quickly become one of the most recognizable voices in the field.

Le revealed that his "big break" came with his role as Zenitsu in the popular anime series "Demon Slayer", which he described as his "first-ever gigantic role in terms of status and scope."
