YMMV: Axis Of Time
  • Complete Monster: Rear Admiral Jisaku Hidaka, who is considered a scumbag - even by Nazi collaborators. invoked
    • The series was criticized by some for making nearly all the Imperial Japanese forces this, even with Truth in Television - every town they've been through is in ruins.
    • Arthur M. Snider turns out to be responsible for raping and murdering Captain Anderson and Sub-lieutenant Miyazaki. Julia vows to expose him and destroy his good name now that the war is over, but the novel ends before we see him get his comeuppance.
  • Magnificent Bastard: Lieutenant Ali Moertopo manages to talk his way out of execution and torture while in Japanese custody, and even ends up becoming the governor of Indonesia, first under the Japanese, then under the Americans. While under the former's thumb, he secretly builds up an anti-Japanese guerrilla army to support the American invasion/liberation of the islands.
