I love Heroes b/c you never know what direction their headed in. I think Peter will become a bad guy b/c he doesn’t know his true identity. That may pan out into a good story. I didn’t like the fact that the FBI agents wife was written out. She was pregnant! I loved them as a couple. I was happy to see Hero’s real hero turned out to be Sark from Alias…he’s so hot as a jerk! The girl and her brother, the girl is from X-Men. I wonder why she killed everyone. Is she a beast or can’t control her rage when she’s in fear? She may be a nice hook-up for Peter later on. As for brother and mamma Petrelli…I’m so tired of them. I bet one of them killed Hero’s father, but we’ll see. Hero’s best friend was acting a bit odd, saying Hero wouldn’t return…fishy.

I was so looking forward to Heroes returning….but to me it was kind of a let down.

Does anyone here think, that maybe Hiro himself might take on the Takezo Kensei name and might actually be him?

I think in the end it’ll be Hiro who actually ends up being Takezo Kensei and doing all the things that he heard about in his time. Remember, what happens in the 1600’s is supposed to have an affect in the future. His father said he had a legacy to pass on to Hiro. Maybe the legacy is him doing all the Kensei deeds.

Eh, sorry for the triple post.

(WARNING: If this someone turns out to be accurate then this could potentially contain spoilers!)

To further elaborate on Takezo Kensei: I’m beginning to question if he ever was a hero, Hiro interfering or not. If you think back to Season One and the various recounts of the Kensei legend, pretty much nothing adds up:

- Kensei meeting the Dragon of Kiso Mountain and learning the secrets of the Sword Saitn from the Dragon. While the Dragon could be code for something else - or with this show, an actual Dragon - it seems a little unlikely.

- Kensei unites Japan and becomes a great Japanese leader, living in a Palace, and married to a Princess. The idea of a foreigner becoming a leader and marrying a princess if very unlikely as well.

- The Dragon comes to take the Princess’ life as a part of a deal with Kensei, but instead Kensei takes his own life in place of the Princess. Seeing as Kensei’s rumored power was immortality, this also doesn’t add up.

And, finally, in the documentary about Kensei (as a part of Heroes 360), he was clearly Japanese.

So…either the entire legend was made up entirely, or the Takezo Kensei that Hiro met in “Four Months Later” is a poser using the real Takezo Kensei’s name. >_>

Oh, and it’s bull that they just left out why and how Matt left his wife. I realize that it will (hopefully) be explained during the “Four Months Ago” episode, but by the finale all I could think about was “THE BABY IS TOTALLY HIS FRIEND’S!” and they never elaborated on it. Just a pet peeve.

I’m kind of iffy. I enjoyed it, but I’ve never been a fan of that lost and confused feeling I get when there is a sudden jump in time.

I have to say I am a big fan of Claire’s new love interest - (P.S. Is it Wes or West? I couldn’t hear just right and I forgot to put captions on!) - though I do question his motives. He just has that whole creepy stalker vibe.

The secret Molly is seeing (and saw in the finale of Chapter One) is really interesting me. Is it connected to the threats against Angela and Kaito? I kind of got that vibe, mainly due to the Helix being on the pictures as well as in Molly’s drawing. Then again, the man who shoved Kaito off the roof sent off my “SYLAR!” alarm…so…

Major WTH @ Takezo Kensei (you were close, Dustin :P) being an Englishman. How was that detail left out of the stories? Very odd and not sure I like it, but I’ll go with it for now.

(This is a major historical inaccuracy, by the way. The only foreigners allowed in Japan at that time were the Dutch - And Samurai were basically non-existent. Japanese military were already using modern firearms by then. It’s not a big deal, but still inaccurate nonetheless. >_>)

Can’t wait for next week. It was a total tease not seeing Peter until the end. Hopefully we’ll also get to see Niki next week as well - I know she isn’t a fan favorite, but I like her.

I only caught the last half hour but I really liked it as well it seemed like they were setting up the stories for this season and by the end we will probably see how they all fit together.
