Hiro Nakamura (中村広 / ヒロ・ナカムラ, Nakamura Hiro) is a fictional superhero on the NBC superhero drama Heroes who possesses the ability of space-time manipulation. This means that Hiro is able to alter the flow of time, teleport and time travel. In the show, he is played by Japanese actor Masi Oka.[1][2][3][4]

According to the online comic on NBC.com, Hiro is named after Hiroshima, so his family will always remember the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Tim Kring has been quoted as saying, "It's no coincidence we named him Hiro... he truly is on a hero's quest."[5] To this end, his name is often used as a pun. His co-worker and best friend Ando once called him "Super-Hiro" in jest.
