  • Michio Kaku (加來 道雄) is a Japanese-American physicist and futurist. Born on January 24, 1947, he has made frequent contributions to popular science, and thus inevitably, commented on science fiction. On January 28, 2007, he hosted the Discovery Channel series 2057.
  • Dr. Michio Kaku is a professor of theoretical physics who works at Smogon University in A Just Edge. He is an eccentric man, perhaps autistic, who has very odd interactions with people around him. He seems to know what he's talking about when it comes to theoretical physics, though, even though he seems to find dark matter in every bush he looks into to. In A Just Edge, Michio Kaku leads Ryan, Kelly, Rahul, and Alex through Viridian Forest. He also has an encounter with the deranged Jesse Ventura on this trip.
  • Kaku generally appears about one-third of the way through every science show, regardless of the show's subject. After the viewer is bombarded by Deep-Voiced Narrator's esoteric and unwieldy concepts, the scientist "translates" Deep-Voiced Narrator's sentences into everymanese. Due to his everyman charm and nerd-lite persona, every viewer believes that they understand the words coming out of his mouth, and therefore the concepts that the show is describing. Although this isn't actually true, it keeps viewers tuning in to science shows that they otherwise would not, about subjects they will never understand, only claim to their bar buddies that they do - using Kaku's meaningless actual words.
