Essay 1-02b: HEROES

Do you know HEROES? HEROES is an internationally-broadcast science-fiction drama in the United States in September 2006. It is broadcast by about 40 countries. Recently, it's very famous in Japan. HEROES is people who discover they have special abilities. For example, control between time-spaces, flight, reproduction of tissue cell, marvelous physical strength, telepathy, prospect in the future and more!

HEROES has 5 season episodes. But, season 5 are still considering wrapping up the show in a webseries or movie. I had already watched season 3. Season One contains 23 episodes and consists of one volume, entitled "Genesis". The first season of Heroes begins on the day of a solar eclipse. Various people throughout the world discover they have super-human abilities. The story revolves around the attempts to prevent an explosion threatening to destroy New York City.Season Two consists of one volume, "Generations", and includes 11 episodes. Season Three consists of two volumes. The first 13 episodes are Volume Three "Villains", and the last 12 are Volume 4 "Fugitives".

HEROES cast are very very cool and beautiful! I like Claire Bennet(Hayden Panettiere), Hiro Nakamura(Mashi Oka) and Peter Petrelli(Milo Ventimiglia). Claire Bennet is a high school student. She has a reproduction of tissue cell ability. She is a cute girl. Hiro Nakamura is japanese man. He is Otaku(maniac). He always "yatta-!" said. Peter Petrelli has empathic mimicry. He is a doctor. He absorbs various abilities.

HEROES are written by creator/writer Tim Kring. It's an award-winning internationally-broadcast. But, HEROES's 5 season is still considering wrapping up the show in a webseries or movie. Because HEROES audience rating is bad. It's feel very sad to me.

HEROES is mysterious and strange drama, but it's interesting and exciting for me.
