Masayori "Masi" Oka (born 1974 in Tokyo, Japan) is a Japanese-born American actor, comic, and special effects artist (and pianist. And kendo practitioner. And director. And probably something else we've forgotten). [[http://www.etonline.com/tv/147395_hawaii_five_o_masi_oka_shares_his_new_video_game_plans/index.html?viewFull=true Now also makes video games]] with his studio Creator/MobiusDigital. Previously worked at Creator/IndustrialLightAndMagic as a programmer and helped with special effects on things like the ''Franchise/StarWars'' prequel trilogy, ''Film/MenInBlack'', and ''Franchise/PiratesOfTheCaribbean''. Of note, the water effects he helped write engine script for in ''Pirates'' were adapted to model the explosions in ''Film/{{Avatar}}'', since fluid dynamics are quite similar whether you're talking liquid water or superheated plasma.

* CharacterTics: According to him, it's a way of adding humor; any time you can make a character's actions identifiable, you have something to [[PlayingWithATrope play with]]. Thus we have Hiro not only [[AdjustingYourGlasses constantly pushing his glasses up by the bridge]], but also throwing his arms in the air (usually while shouting "Yatta!" but sometimes while shouting other things), and squinching up his face as tight as he can while using his powers. Often got {{Lampshaded}} or otherwise gently poked fun at.
