Hanging out with Masi Oka in Akihabara
Heroes star Masi Oka was recently in Japan, and one reporter got to go on a “Akihabara Date” with him:
Oka, who will be appearing in the movie Get Smart, explains to the reporter that there is a sort of Otaku boom in America, and many people have heard of Akihabara, and that tour groups often visit Akihabara.
When they arrive at a shop, they encounter the DVD display for season 2 of Heroes. We also find out that Oka is a fan of the Bayside Shakedown movies. After buying some DVD’s, they play soccer with remote controlled robots.
The segment closes with Oka describing his dream for the future. Instead of remaining an actor, he would like to have a chance to work as a director and make something for kids.
