Notes
|
| Ando has the power to focus or amplify other people's powers, possibly making himself immune in the process. |
None. |
+ Ando is the only one who remembers the "original" timeline where Hiro met Charlie only shortly before she was killed by Sylar.
- Ando is next to Hiro at the Museum of Natural History, and Hiro is only able to slow time, not completely stop it (Godsend).
- When Hiro attempts to go back in time and save Charlie (Seven Minutes to Midnight), he moves back far further than the day he intended to, despite his proximity to Ando.
+ Peter begins to lose control of his powers sometime after meeting Ando (and unknowingly absorbing his power) on the night of Homecoming.
|
| Ando has the ability to speak the future. |
None. |
+ There are many instances where Ando's offhand utterances later turn out to be true. He says that he and Hiro need to find hope, only to meet a woman named Hope moments later. (Run!).
- This observation may simply be a device the writers have used to play up the need for Ando's character since Hiro learned English, or, more likely, to play up Hiro's quest for destiny.
- Sylar had the opportunity to take Ando's brain, but refused. He also mentions to Ando that he has no use for his brain. (How to Stop an Exploding Man)
- + Sylar has been shown as unable to tell whether or not someone has powers without outside information: he killed Jackie in the style he reserves for evolved humans, despite her being the wrong target, and only realized his mistake afterward.
- + He also didn't attempt to kill Hiro in Seven Minutes To Midnight, he only killed Charlie.
- + When Sylar telekinetically pinned Ando in How to Stop an Exploding Man, Sylar already had Isaac's procognitive ability so wouldn't need to gain that ability from Ando.
