John Smith is the hero this world deserves
>cowardly terrorists ambush him and kill his friend and rather than execute the lone unarmed survivor he arrests him
GOAT
Holy fuck how do you mess up a show this badly
>regular american average joes on one side
>literal nazis and imperial japs on the other
>write the americans to be liars, cowards, cheaters, ruthless killers and all-around bastards
>write the nazis and japs to be strong, proud, honest, honorable, family-oriented, dutiful and loyal even in the face of their own deaths
Did /pol/ write this shit? It was literally impossible not to root for Tagomi, Kido and Smith.

>mess up
I'd say they did the right thing, writing Axis characters as mustache twirling baby eaters is easy, way harder to make them relatable
>tfw you will never be Obergruppenfuhrer Smith
>>67907588
but they made the "good guys" so utterly despicable that there's no way to like them. I'd consider writing nazis with all the features and characteristics of good guys and writing regular americans with all the features and characteristics of bad guys is messing it up, unless they were actively trying to make me hate that fucking karate bitch and her untrustworthy lying shitheel love-affair. Frank was a piece of shit too.

Maybe you've been rooting for the wrong people all along, just think to yourself, how can anyone who wears Hugo Boss be a bad guy?

Well, realistically, Nazis and the Japanese would definitely be more family oriented, proud, dutiful, loyal etc., it's a crucial part of their culture.
But I understand what you're trying to say, the karate bitch and the rest of the good guys are chasing those films the entire season dreaming about a better world, but I haven't seen anything too bad happening in the world they're currently in.

I mean, they kinda shot karategirls sister and gassed frank's sister, it's not like the show isn't portraying the fascists as ruthless on a societal level, but the actual characters meant to represent this regime are all super likeable and contain all the qualities of a traditional protagonist.
Meanwhile you got Joe who's a turncoat liar who only thinks with his dick and has nothing he believes in, you got karate bitch who's disloyal, dishonest, and selfish. You got Frank who's a weak coward who keeps dragging fuckers down with him, from his sister to the antiquarian to his best fucking friend. How am I supposed to root for these people, no matter the throwaway comments about the hospital burning the terminally ill on wednesdays?

Even they were killed just because of the film reels basically. I haven't read the book, but judging from the show, I don't think you have to sympathize and root for the allies and against the axis as far as the characters go. i mean it's Phillip Dick, he wouldn't resort to writing black and white characters like that.
Most of the time I'm rooting for based Smith anyway

The only likable 'good' guy was weeb and jew
