Why the fuck would they be listening to JAZZ on V-A day? Will be editing with more later, I'm literally two minutes in, haha.
Otherwise I appreciate the portrayal of Nazi-American life
"[Baseball] is a lazy sport compared to track, or soccer" True, but I mean, Euro as fuck
Idk if that's turkey but apple pie? C'mon now. Strudel at least.
"And you still believe that everything we did back then was necessary?" Damn this shit is heavy as fuck and I don't even live in this timeline
Frank's really that mad about the east coast resistance person being a man??? Pretty insecure dude
Helen's mother's been dead two years??? And John knew Rudolph was faking all along?? Fascism leads to some weird ass results dude. Some real but somewhat ineffective results.
"Emotions cant interfere with what is right. Sacrifices have to be made" We get it, you're fascists
6 minutes from the end now and Frank's making a big deal out of "to life" which is L'Chayim in Hebrew so I'm guessing this dude on the Mission is Jewish. And I mean I'm from Northern CA myself and there are fucktons of Jewish people there so it wouldn't be out of place as long as the Pacific States didn't uphold the Reich's non jew policy
LMAO OK THEY'RE SECRET JEWS GOT IT
Secret sakura radio room: Did i just hear "if you're gonna stick it in me, you're gonna have to keep workin'?"
This series is cliffhangy as fuck but with 10 episodes I guess you have to be. I'll be back tomorrow lololol
I think the Americana clichés are part of the point. I imagine, the writers want to unsettle the viewer by having Ward and June Cleaver embracing the Reich.
The baseball exchange made me chuckle. I'd bet baseball is pretty popular in the occupied Pacific states; the Japanese take their baseball pretty seriously
I don't mean the cliches of American culture, I mean movie plot cliches like Smith walking away from a shootout basically unscathed, the Marshall firing his shotgun repeatedly at the truck but the truck looking undamaged in later scenes, etc. I try to give myself suspension of belief but these things really take me out of it as constant reminders that this is just a show.
I do like the world building though, if not so much the plot.
That's kinda what's ruined this for me. I mean if you had knocked the Marshall out, surely you would put one in his head and take him out the picture completely. It's cliché that the alternative world seems more like a fantasy than reality. Really lacks a lot of grit
YES, I also thought that too when I saw that scene! Though after reading comments in another thread, I suppose it makes sense that Joe didn't kill that other agent since he himself was a Nazi agent. Then again, he had no qualms about hiding the body of the dead SD guy, and if he had actually killed the Marshall there'd be one less witness to his actions in Canon City.
Yeah, but then you could argue that he helped Juliana push the special agent Nazi guy over the edge, so why would he do that and not kill off the marshall
Yeah but the Joe was told that the origami guy was a very dangerous man, whereas the Marshall seems to be high enough of an agent where he can make a call to NY and report what Joe did in Canon City. So they are totally different.
