History YMMV / TheLegendOfKoizumi

* EvilIsSexy: Skozerny, Ruddel, Rommel, Tristan and Isolde. Arguably, Yulia and Putin, before banding together along with the other good guys.

** "[[IncrediblyLamePun GOD MOUPAI!]]"

* SugarWiki/DevelopmentHeaven: The manga alone is chock-full of real-life details about the politicians, such as Taro Aso's Roman Catholic faith, that are used to build the characters and story development -- more so than you'd ever expect from a WidgetSeries.

* DoingItForTheArt: The manga alone is chock-full of real-life details about the politicians, such as Taro Aso's Roman Catholic faith, that are used to build the characters and story development -- more so than you'd ever expect from a WidgetSeries.

* ActuallyPrettyFunny: Turns out that Taro Aso and Shigeru Ishiba, both of which have had fictionalized versions of themselves appear in the manga, are fans of the series, and recommend it to people. Of course, they had fairly positive portrayals in the manga, so it isn't too surprising.

* HolyShitQuotient:
** [[spoiler: Mengele vs Tymoshenko. Poisoning? Damn. Gonna die if it reaches your brain? Double damn. What do you do? YOU TAKE MENGELE'S SCALPEL AND SLIT YOUR THROAT TO BLEED THE POISON OUT.]]
*** [[spoiler: And it somehow worked, without Tymoshenko bleeding to death.]]
** [[spoiler: A revolution on the moon? But who would be leading it? MOTHER FUCKING ROMMEL.]]

** Yulia makes a Chernobyl joke [[spoiler: to Joseph Mengele. They're practically dancing on the line]]

* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments: [[spoiler: The baseball flashback in chapter 19 of the manga. George Jr... never did forget. You didn't fail him, Papa Bush. [[ThemeMusicPowerUp You didn't]] [[TookALevelInBadass fail him]].]]

** After [[spoiler:Skorzeny's death]]: "Return home [[spoiler: Skorzeny.]] This world is full of corruption."

* GeniusBonus: As this page shows, the series has sneaky {{Shout Out}}s for everything from Greek mythology to ''DragonBall'' to the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics.

* CrowningMomentOfAwesome: Every chapter seems like it is the best one yet... [[SerialEscalation Then the next chapter comes out.]]
** Every time someone pulls out their FinishingMove. Every. Time.

* LesYay: Tymoshenko and Eleonora come across as... quite a bit more than just friends. They've occasionally been described as a [[http://everything2.com/title/D%252Fs "D/s couple"]], but that isn't ''quite'' accurate since Tymoshenko would never willingly hurt Eleonora... or let anyone else hurt her, either.[[note]]There certainly is no question as to who "wears the pants", however, which is especially hilarious as Eleonora's MildlyMilitary outfit does include pants.[[/note]]

* MagnificentBastard: EVERY major character to some degree, but Nazi Special Operative Otto Skorzeny in particular. But then THE MagnificentBastard HIMSELF shows up...

* JustForFun/XMeetsY: Politics meets mahjong meets ''TabletopGame/YuGiOh'' or ''Manga/{{Saki}}''-styled duels on [[ThisIsYourPremiseOnDrugs whatever cocktail of drugs gave us]] ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann''.
