* The Smiths have three children in the Nazi-controlled world, yet in the alternate world where the Allies won, Thomas is an only child. Nazi propaganda strongly encouraged large families among those it deemed racially suitable.

* At some point, Alt-John will have been gone long enough that being on one of his business trips can't account for it, and Alt-Helen and Alt-Thomas will realize he is dead, with idea how or why and no body to bury.

* Imperial Japanese occupation in the book is less oppressive and racist than it ever was during the war, to the point where it may seem as if the book is whitewashing Japanese atrocities. But the book is not set during the war. It is set in an alternate 1962, at which point almost two decades have passed since the war and Japanese culture has shifted and is beginning to liberalize -- just as the USA's culture did in real life.

* In Joe's conversation with the police officer who helps repair his truck's tire in the first episode, we learn that the officer was a veteran from the Second World War. He mentions that "it's been so long I can't even remember what we were fighting for." Mere seconds later, ash from the local "hospital" begins to rain down. How quickly we get used to horror.

* Tagomi travels to a timeline where he is alienated from his family. His family regard him with some hostility, but do not question his presence. Later, we learn that you can only travel to dimensions where your equivalent is dead. This means that in Tagomi's alternate timeline, his family is ''so'' alienated from him that they didn't even realize that he had died.

* Kido arresting Yamori is very well planned. He knows he can't openly defy Yamori, who is powerful enough to lock up even the Crown Princess. Instead, he lures Yamori into a situation where Yamori will be fairly lightly guarded (the execution of Grand Admiral Inokuchi), and the soldiers there will be loyal to Kido. Kido waits until the soldiers have already loaded and aimed at Inokuchi, because at that point they will be less hesitant to turn on another high-ranking officer.

* When Lido is locked in the gas chamber in Kempeitai HQ, it turns out that the gas tanks are empty. That may be because the Japanese stopped using the gas chamber after Admiral Inokuchi advocated 'a lighter hand'.
