History Characters / Hunters

* HistoricalVillainUpgrade: [[spoiler;Braun]] wasn't a good person. At best, an argument could be made she was merely self-absorded and possibly severely lacking in empathy. At worst, she might have had detailed knowledge of the camps and agreed with what was happening within them. However, it's clear she wasn't a political person. Her running around trying to start a fourth Reich and happily having 'non-desirables' and even her own underlings on occasion killed is not something the historical Braun would have done if she'd survived after the war.

* LaughablyEvil: Sure he's a Nazi monster, but being played by Dylan Baker expects moments of laughter and chuckle form the character, especially with either his folksy FakeAmerican[[invoked]] accent or his actual German accent which initially made him scary in his debut, but later comedic when he has a MinorInjuryOverreaction after Millie Morris shot him before briefly apprehending him.
