Monta Mino (?? ???, Mino Monta), born Norio Minorikawa (??? ??, Minorikawa Norio, born 22 August 1944), is a Japanese television presenter. Mino is recognized by the Guinness World Records as being the TV host with the most hours of live TV appearances in a week (22 hours, 15 seconds), as of April 2008. This breaks his earlier 2006 record of 21 hours, 42 minutes.
On his country: "Everyone has the capacity to do it, but the majority just don't want to, and that's a terrible waste. Japan used to be known as a land of hard workers. Now it's just the opposite."
