Legal issues
In March 2019, Taki was arrested on suspicion of cocaine use and his latest video game, Judgment, was withdrawn from sale by the publisher, Sega.[3][19] His appearance has been removed in the Western release.[20] He was later released on bail on April 4, 2019.[21] After he admitted to using cocaine, the Tokyo District court sentenced him to eighteen months in prison, suspended for three years.[22]
His voice acting roles were also replaced such as Olaf from Frozen.[23][24] Home video releases of Frozen were removed in Japan.[25]
Since then, Shunsuke Takeuchi became the new Japanese dub voice of Olaf.
