Cain's actor is, like his character, Japanese-Canadian, but from Toronto instead of Montreal. Hiroto Masamune barely outstrips his character in age at 25, and while he's done stage and minor American television work before--along with J-drama work when he was a bit younger, having moved back to Japan for a few years--this is his first major role in English.
Where Cain is trollish and sharp-tongued, Hiroto is genuinely nice. His goggles have the fandom wondering--helped by the potential foreshadowing in one of his scenes with Mort. The fandom isn't sure what to make of him, but they're sure he's bound to be a villain.
He's sitting next to Masato, waving a little and wearing a wide grin. Hiroto is excited to be a part of this. And, naturally, those goggles are sitting on his forehead. Just to give a little tease.
