Everybody loves Hiro Nakamura

Played by Masi Oka, from NBC’s Heroes. Ok first of all, if you are not yet aware of Heroes, go watch it. I guarantee you will be addicted. For me it was like 300, over-hyped yet more than lived up to expectations. And second of all, Hiro Nakamura is the shit.

Some research

Apparently (just a bunch of Wikipedia facts), Masi Oka has an IQ of 180 and was in the cover of Time magazine in 1987 for an issue called “Those Asian-American Whiz Kids.” He also worked for George Lucas’ special effects company, Industrial Light & Magic, toiling on special effects for films like “Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest,” “War of the Worlds” and the three “Star Wars” prequels. Masi also has had guest appearances in the following shows: “Dharma & Greg,” “Gilmore Girls,” “Yes, Dear,” “Austin Powers in Goldmember,” “Along Came Polly”, and a recurring role in “Scrubs” as Franklin.
