Hiroshi Fujioka

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hiroshi, Fujioka (藤岡 弘、 Fujioka Hiroshi,?, born February 19, 1946 as Kunihiro Fujioka (藤岡 邦弘 Fujioka Kunihiro?)) is a Japanese actor best known for playing the hero Takeshi Hongo in the influential tokusatsu superhero series Kamen Rider, and the Sega Saturn mascot Segata Sanshiro. Fujioka is a cultural icon in Japan, even having the minor planet 12408 Fujioka, discovered by Akimasa Nakamura, named in his honor.[1][2] Fujioka writes his name with the ideographic comma at the end (after the kanji for "Hiroshi" (弘?)), saying "It is meant to remind me to reconsider myself and what it is that I need to achieve. It shows that I am not yet finished with my tasks and must continue working toward their accomplishment."[3]
