Masi Oka #1 actor On Heroes ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Masi Oka was born in Tokyo, Japan but his family moved to Los Angeles when he was 6 years old. Along with standard elemetary school, he attended… More Saturday school in L.A. where he learned English, U.S. history, etc. He graduated from Brown University with a major in Computer Science and Mathematics and a minor in Theatre Arts. Masi spent a number of years working for visual effects... I Think Here The Best actor On Heroes He Realy Funny & Vary Cool. What Do You Guy's Think..........
It doesn't mention Reno 911 on Masi's list of appearances. He plays a japanese narrator in an episode in the 3rd season. I believe it's the episode with "Fast Eddy McClintoc"

I personally think that Masi Oka was incredibly underappreciated. He plays Hiro on the hit show Heroes, and that really brought his name to fame. He's one of the biggest characters, and people love him and his actor. Masi is somewhat of nerd, it seems, but that's why he's so cool. He worked on amazing special effects in movies like Star Wars and Pirates of the Caribbean, plus he acts. At first, I was probably like a lot of people, and had no idea who he was, but then I saw Heroes and saw all of the stuff he did. He can really play a good character, so give him props!
I love Masi Oka! He plays Hiro Nakamura in Heroes so great! I think I would not love the Hiro character if it wasn't played by Masi Oka. He has a big talent. I love when he does his "Yattah" and "Flying man! Whooosh!" LOL! I just love him! I'm wondering, how come he's not been discovered sooner? He is such an great actor in his way of becoming a big, huge star! I would love to see him in a number of movies but I wish he stays in Heroes until the end! We love you, Masi Oka !
Here's what I say about Masi Oka. His Character on Heroes, Hiro Nakamura, is so funny. I love how he says Ya da. and his time traveling power is pretty cool. He should play the main character in a movie. I have also seen how he did some special effects for movies. I bet those effects were good. I've read that James Kyson Lee, who plays Ando originally auditioned for Hiro. I mean, No offense to James but, I think Hiro is better of being played by Masi. But James makes a good Ando. I hope some day Masi will have a show where it's all about his character.
I heard on an interview that his character was an after thought because the director or writer's liked him so much they decided he needed to be in it. Who knew that his character would turn out to be one of the most popular in the whole show. He's definatly my favorite. I've always been fascinated with the Japanese (who knows why??) and when I saw him for the first time I just fell in love with the character and his acting. I like his character above the others because they all seemed to have negative views about thier powers but he instantly sees himself as a super "hiro". I just love that about him. He's such a positive character and Masi Oka does a brilliant job playing him. It fits well into his personality because the character was written for him.
Really great! Yataaa! And he did the water scenes for POTC! Amazing, we love you Masi!
