I didnt even think that Adam could be in the old-folks society!
I still want to find out what Peter's mom, Ninja girl's aunt/grandma's, and Nakamurasan's powers are. I want to learn more about them Also, this last episode helped the mexican's story a tiny bit. They REALLY need to focus on making it better, I mean, Its all there.. but they're just not doing anything interesting with it.

leave for no raisin:
I think Hiro is supposed to be a little older that 25-26.  In season one there was a flashback sequence with Hiro's father dated sometime in the 70s (can't remember which year specifically), and Hiro looked maybe 6 or 7.  I remember doing some math based on my estimation of his age in that scene, and it put him closer to 30  Based on Hiro's age in that flashback, I figured he was probably born in the late 70s.  I may be wrong, but I really do think he's a little older than 25.

Oh, and THE SIBLINGS AREN'T MEXICAN.  They're from Honduras.  They've been in Mexico a lot because they've been driving into the US, but they aren't from there.

Ladybug:
I don't think he's that much older than 25-26. Because in the scene, if I'm thinking of the same scene you are, Claire's a baby, isn't she? And she's supposed to be 16 or 17? And he can't have been older than 10 in that scene (I haven't gone back to check, but I think I remember him looking younger than that), and if we add Claire's age, he's a maximum of 27 (again, not sure how old Claire is supposed to be), and I'd think a little bit younger than that even.

And before I posted this, I looked him up on Wikipedia, and it said this:

--- Quote ---Thirteen years before the start of the series, Hiro's father, Kaito Nakamura, puts Claire into the hands of Mr. Bennet. In the background, a ten-year-old Hiro plays his Game Boy, not paying attention to them.
--- End quote ---
..which makes no sense? Because if Claire was a baby 13 years ago, she's supposed to be 13 now, which doesn't even make any sense.

I may be completely off here, because I have a tendency to easily forget stuff in TV series, especially ones with looots of stuff going on like this one, but I figured I'd throw it out there. I'm sure they've mentioned Claire's age, but I've appearently forgotten.

Edit: Went back and checked, and in Company Man (episode 17), Bennet gets Claude as a partner 15 years ago, and then in another flashback 14 years ago, we see Claire as a baby and Bennet being told to adopt her, with Hiro in the background, looking..well, I suck at placing kids based on their age, but not that old. 5-7, maybe. Which puts Hiro in his early twenties, if I'm guessing his age right in that flashback.

0bsessions:
The seventies is WAAAAY off on that flashback.. Guesstimating, I'd peg the year of that one at about 1991 or 92.

The big detail on the timeframe: The scene focused around Kaito giving Claire to Noah. Claire was eighteen months old at the time of the fire, and this was soon after. With Claire being recently sixteen in early 2007, dependant on when her birthday is, it was likely late '91, early '92 give or take a year with my absolutely abysmal math capabilities.

It's hard to judge, but I'd say Hiro looks between seven and ten, pegging him to be currently between 23 and 26. There's no way he's older than his mid-twenties.

Edit: For clarification's sake, I have the entire first season on my iPod. I ran through and checked the episode "Company Man." Not a chance that Hiro's older than ten in that scene. I'd guess eight or nine, but give a window of seven to ten as mentioned. He's not older than 26 and bare minimum 20 as he and Ando were in a bar in the first episode with the Japanese drinking age as twenty. early mid-twenties is most likely guess.

leave for no raisin:
I think I'm thinking of a different flashback.  I also just might have made up a flashback in my head.  I just remember doing some math once and ending up with a 27-28 age for Hiro.

It's be awesome if there were just some official bios of the heroes that list their dates of birth for the sake of piecing together a timeline.  There might be, but I haven't looked.
