He dabbled in botany, fencing and arctic survival skills. What else can we say about him? Oh, and in the movie "Generations" we finally learned that he actually had a first name!

Sulu was always one of my favorite characters. He got sent down on landing parties when Kirk didnt feel like taking charge, and he gotleft in command of the ship several times.

When you think about it, lieutenants probably do all the work on a starship. The senior officers just get the credit when things go right.

Id go along with that, Admiral. It looked like he and Uhura pretty much took care of things.

Uhura probably needs a topic of her own, too. But... does anyone know where the name "Hikaru" came from? The first I heard of it is in the movie "Generations."

It was first mentioned in the novel The Entropy Effect according to Wiki and established in canon in Star Trek IV which is...The Voyage Home. It's a unisex Japanese name meaning, among other things, "light".
Interestingly it seems that in the Japanese version he's known by the common Japanese name "Kato".

I don't remember any mention of it "The Voyage Home", but it could have been included in the novelized version. They are always adding additional dialogue.
And last night I was watching "Mirror, Mirror" -- how about the alternate universe Sulu? Was he a tough guy or what? He was security chief over there, which means that Sulu is the only character I can think of who wore all three uniforms -- blue, gold and red -- at one time or another.

Yeah. That ugly scar down the side of his head. He was tough all right.

That was not only my favourite episode of Star Trek: The Original Series, but Sulu's alternate-self was definitely the best character on that episode, with the exception of Spock perhaps.H+

Chekov was also swaggering around a little bit in that one but he didnt pull it off with the same flair that Sulu did.
