    Here’s a cool video of Masi Oka, who plays Hiro Nakamura on the hit American TV drama Heroes, appearing on FTV’s Mezamashi TV morning show:

    In the interview Oka reveals that he is actively involved in the translation of Japanese lines on the show, and that his famous “yatta!” scene was actually written as “bonsai!!” in the original script [the writer meant "banzai," but since many Americans could associate that word with World War II, it was changed to "yatta" in the final version].
