You may have thought I’ve forgotten about poor Hiro and decided to just leave Masi Oka alone. Sorry, Wolf Gnards just wouldn’t be Wolf Gnards if we didn’t kick a nerd when he was down.
Chapter 4 of Heroes: -1 Asian Points
Last time Hiro did nothing, he got rewarded with a nice fat zero. This time, he gets a negative one. This is just because we’re only 4 episodes into the season, and Hiro’s already been missing in action twice. NBC manages to squeeze in Peter Petrelli and Claire into every episode. They could make the effort to squeeze in Hiro time. A little too early to be missing again.
The other reason, Hiro’s in the red is because Masi Oka is just too nice. If you want something, you have to take it. If you want your character to do something or be something, tell the writers. Hayden Panettiere wanted a lesbian love interested… POOF, she’s kissing a girl. Oka’s primary problem is he’s just happy to be on the show, and therefor lets the writers do whatever they want with him.
So, Masi, this is a message broadcasted directly to you. Make demands. It doesn’t need to be anything groundbreaking, but don’t be afraid to make a demand or two. Start small, ask for more a mustache or something.
