Storyline

- TriviaExtensive research was done for the cultures, particularly areas such as costuming, technology, and music, to develop an alternate world which merges aspects of WWII Nazi and Imperial Japanese cultures with the cultural progress of mid-1950s America. Although the series is set in 1962, the use of the 1950s for many touchstones suggests the cultural stagnation that would have occurred under totalitarian occupation.
- GoofsThe Japanese sign in the aikido dojo says Habu Yakkyoku in Japanese which means Lance-Head Snake Pharmacy.

Featured review
Nevertheless, it was a great show and I recommend watching it for everyone.
I watched the fourth season with sheer pleasure. I was afraid that the ending of the whole thing could outgrow the creators, as in the case of GoT and ... unfortunately, it was like a blow with a rusty knife right through my guts. Sigh. I gave 8/10 for the whole series, and the last episode promised to be strong 9/10, but in the last minutes, it fell apart into a dishonorable 3/10.
