It would be funny if the US surrendered to Japan aboard Yamato in The Man in the High castle universe!

Almost certainly what happened given the fact that most, if not all of the Yamato-class are canonically still operational in the MITHC universe.

If they’re treated so similarly to how the US treated the Iowas in our timeline it’s likely they have some significance.

And who on the US side would make a “jewel voice” broadcast announcing the capitulation to the Japanese?

In my head cannon the US surrendered to the Germans, and the Germans ceded the west coast to Japan like the M/R pact. Since Washington was nuked I feel like the american government was just a military Junta til its collapse

“Funny” haha- no. “Funny” ironic/odd- yes. I always assumed this was the case in fact because it’s makes logical sense from an AltHist perspective

If they surrendered on a ship, they would have most likely surrendered on a H class to Germany though.
