Dr. is best known as an expert commentator on the Japanese television show ''Iron Chef''. Hattori is also the fifth president of the Hattori Nutrition College; the ''Iron Chef'' end credits mention that the program is "produced in cooperation with" the College. Hattori received a Ph.D. in medicine from Showa University. ==Career== In the English-dubbed version of ''Iron Chef'', shown on the U.S. Food Network and Australia's SBS network, Hattori was often referred to as "Doc" by the show's announcer, Kenji Fukui. After being introduced, Hattori typically responded, "Always a pleasure." While his main role on the show was as a commentator, Hattori took the place of Chairman Takeshi Kaga at least once when the chairman "boycotted" Kitchen Stadium to protest the poor performance of his Iron Chefs. (The boycott was scripted in the show, as Kaga had another taping schedule that night.) Hattori also challenged the Iron Chefs at least twice. His first battle, in 1994, was against Iron Chef Japanese Rokusaburo Michiba; truffles were the theme ingredient. In his second battle, in 1998, he faced off against Iron Chef Japanese Koumei Nakamura over tuna. Hattori lost both battles. In episode 7 of ''Yakitate!! Japan'', Hattori was a special guest of one of the judges in the baking contest. He also serves as a semi-regular commentator and judge on the Japanese TV program ''Ai no Eepuron'' (''Apron of Love''). Hattori's voice in the English-dubbed version of ''Iron Chef'' is supplied by Canadian-born voice actor Scott Morris. Hattori taped an appearance in season 2 of ''The Next Iron Chef''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Yukio Hattori」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
