	\| Since a gun would be completely useless if time were frozen, he uses the sword to defeat enemies. \|\| None \|\| {{plus}}Hiro can move objects when time is stopped, but there's no evidence he can allow objects (like bullets) to move of their own accord.<br>{{minus}} When Hiro tosses two playing cards while betting with the gamblers, they move and get "stuck" in air. If it is possible for Hiro to generate an action that moves playing cards freely, why can't a gun propel a bullet?
	:{{note}}The things that Hiro moves while freezing time are things he has direct contact with, and seems to stop quickly once he breaks contact. It is unclear how far a bullet would be able to travel once it left the barrel of the gun, assuming that contact through the gun handle would even "count".
	\|-
	\| Some [[evolved humans]], such as those with [[Claire]]'s [[regeneration]] ability, might have to be decapitated to be killed, as in the "Highlander" mythos, particularly Sylar.\|\| Until the tree branch is pulled out of Claire's head by the coroner, Claire's regeneration does not function. (''[[Collision]]'') \|\| {{Plus}} This seems to be correct as all powers are controlled by the brain, and without that no power would work.
	\|-
	\| Hiro's sword is actually a reference to Hiro Protagonist, a character in Neal Stephenson's book Snowcrash who also dressed in black. \|\| None \|\| {{minus}}This might be a coincidence. <br> {{minus}} It's not like black isn't a common dress color.<br>{{minus}} Hiro is Japanese, and the [[Hiro's sword\|katana]] and the samurai are both big symbols in Japanese culture, so the sword may be just an item for the character and not a reference.
	\|-
	\| With the sword, he will be a deadly adversary, since he will be able to stop time, attack his adversaries while they are helpless, then allow time to resume so that they will feel the effects of the wounds. It is hard to imagine how anyone will be able to defeat Hiro if he has enough warning to use his power to control time. \|\| When Hiro "stops time", he can still interact with people and objects that are "frozen". (''[[Don't Look Back]]'') \|\| {{plus}}This may be significant regarding Sylar's apparent resistance to bullets. The sword may be instrumental in defeating Sylar if/when the explanation behind his "bulletproof" nature is further explained.
	\|-
	\| The sword was [[Hiro]]'s. [[Future Hiro]] traveled back in time and was known as [[Takezo Kensei]]. \|\| The painting of Takezo Kensei bears a distinct resemblance to Future Hiro. Both have long hair and a soulpatch. (''[[Godsend]]'') \|\| {{note}}This is a corollary of a [[Theories:People#Hiro Nakamura\|previous theory]]. <br>{{minus}} The personality of Takezo Kensei (brutal) does not mesh with the personality shown by either [[Hiro]] or [[Future Hiro]].
	:{{plus}}Future Hiro tried to kill Sylar with his sword. (''[[String Theory]]'')
	{{minus}} In an [http://www.tvguide.com/News-Views/Interviews-Features/Article/default.aspx?posting=%7B0B10D3E0-C168-467C-90A9-F1DCD2CF97B2%7D interview], George Takei strongly implied that Takezo Kensei is Hiro's ancestor.
	\|-
	\|In the legend, [[Takezo Kensei]] finds his katana frozen in snow. Hiro could have went back in time and died in the fight with dinosaur, or at any other time in the pre-historic period, and his sword was frozen over time. Takenzo Kensei later found the sword, after Hiro had used it. \|\| None. \|\| {{note}} Isaac's paintings were not always completely perfectly accurate, so his depiction of Hiro fighting the [[dinosaur]] may have simply been how he saw Hiro posing in front of the model dinosaur after getting the replica. (''[[Godsend]]'')

	{{minus}}There is no clear evidence that the list is in any particular order.<br>
	{{minus}}[[Mohinder]] has referred to his father's belief that [[Sylar]] was [[Patient Zero]] multiple times. (''[[Don't Look Back]]'', ''[[Parasite]]'')
	<br>{{plus}}[[Chandra]] assembled [[the list]], so he would presumably know that Felipe was "Patient Zero" if his appearance as the first listed had any significance.

	{{note}}The events described in the file take place in [[Vietnam]]. "SEA:V" could refer to "South East Asia:Vietnam". The remaining characters could describe the soldiers, the mission, or the location.<br>
	{{plus}}In particular, some have hypothesized the "/P/L" refers to [[Mr. Petrelli\|Petrelli]] and [[Mr. Linderman\|Linderman]], though there is currently no evidence to support such a hypothesis.<br>
	{{note}}If the letters do refer to the soldiers, "V", "J", and "K" could represent [[Amarillo]], [[Loredo]], and [[San Antonio]], and the numbers some sort of status code. If "P" and "L" represent [[Dallas]] and [[Austin]], the separation and lack of a code number could refer to the fact that they survived the mission.
