[Origami] Akira Yoshizawa reference
I concur with Joseph Wu, the Jackie Chan cartoon had a villain "Origami Man". His secret identity was Kunihiko Kasahara. I had posted about seeing the cartoon when it was first shown. Dee, I was watching just like your kids back then. Shortly after it shown and repeated, Kasahara was a guest at the OUSA Convention in NYC. I gave him a video tape copy of the show - yes it was that long ago that video tapes were common. He told me that it was the second time that he had appeared in a cartoon. Mark Kennedy

When I went to see what was going on - they told me that the bad guy on Jackie Chan was Akira Yoshizawa!! I didn't realize I had talked about him often enough for them to have remembered. I looked it up just now - and they don't mention the villain's name, but the episode is called "Origami" and the villain is an art thief that can fold himself into different things.(And it was only 12 years ago ... so they would have been 11 and 9 :-) Dee
