* ArtificialLimbs: Sakuma figured out that he has a prosthetic left arm which he got from one of his past missions. [[spoiler:It turns out in “Coffin” that he blew off his arm with a hand grenade while escaping from the Germans]].



* PetTheDog: Col. Yuuki is not really a total asshole and he does show some concern to some people including his subordinates:
** After destroying Aaron Price’s spy network, he put him and his wife back together so they can rebuild their lives.
** In “Coffin”, [[spoiler:when he heard that Miyoshi died in a train accident, he rushed to Berlin to see him and take the microfilm before the Germans noticed it. Then, he closes Miyoshi’s eyes before leaving which showed that he appreciated him for what he did]].



* DiesWideOpen: His eyes are strangely peaceful at his death. [[spoiler: This is what alerts Colonel Wolff that someone has already searched his corpse because his eyes are open in the death photograph but are closed in the hospital room.]]

[[spoiler:It turns out he’s from another rival spy agency and the only connection he had with Jitsui is ''attempting to toss him off the cliff'' until the latter retaliated and put him on a choke-hold]].

One of the first D Agency spies introduced. After the initial arc, he ends up assigned to Germany posing as an art dealer using the name "Katsuhiko Maki."

* DiesWideOpen: His eyes are strangely peaceful at his death. [[spoiler: This is what alerts Colonel Wolff that someone has already searched his corpse because his eyes are open in the death photograph but are closed in the hospital room.]]
* DroppedABridgeOnHim: He made a splash in the first episode of the show, but when he reappears again much later, he's dead because the train he was on had a freak accident thanks to a malfunctioning signal light.
* DyingAlone: He bleeds to death alone in the wreckage of a train, and is buried in a foreign land with total strangers at his funeral who are only there to witness a funeral service for unidentified victims of the train crash.



* {{Omniglot}}: In "Joker Game", he's seen to be speaking English aside from Japanese.

* {{Omniglot}}: In "Joker Game", he's seen to be speaking English aside from Japanese. \n We also learn he's fluent enough in German to have lived for many years in Berlin as a successful art dealer while maintaining a small network of spies in Germany without arousing suspicion.
* PeacefulInDeath: He has an incredibly calm and satisfied expression on his face as a corpse. It's so odd that Lieutenant Bauer comments on it.



A D Agency spy working on a cruise liner heading to Honolulu.

* FriendToAllChildren: He gets quite friendly with Emily Grane on the cruise ship, even picking her up and showing her dolphins.

As homosexuality & treachery were not tolerated in this period, Honma would expect Oikawa to shoot himself to go out with some measure of honor. It just so happened that Private Yoshino killed him first.]]

[[folder: German Intelligence]]
!!!'''Voiced by:'''
A pair of German officers, Colonel Wolff & Lieutenant Bauer, who are investigating the death of a Japanese man in a train accident in the Berlin countryside.

* UsefulNotes/{{Abwehr}}: Possibly. The episode does confirm they are not part of the Gestapo, but the exact intelligence division they serve is not made clear. Best guess is either this agency or the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sicherheitsdienst Sicherheitsdienst]].
* AndNowForSomeoneCompletelyDifferent: They're the main characters of Episode 11.
* AwesomeMcCoolName: Their names are ''Wolff'' and ''Bauer'', that speaks for itself.
* ColonelBadass: Wolff has this impression emanating off of him from the moment he appears.
* CostumePorn: Simply put, their uniforms look ''awesome'', all the way up to [[NiceHat the hats.]]
* EyepatchOfPower: Wolff, after losing an eye due to a grenade explosion.
* FateWorseThanDeath: Wolff orders the passenger interrogated by them at the beginning to be handed over to the Gestapo. The man's reaction is definitely this trope.
* NoSwastikas: Despite being Nazi officers, they don't have any swastikas on them. The closest is an Iron Cross that Bauer wears.
* OhCrap: Upon realizing that [[spoiler: Yuuki has already been in the hospital and taken Maki's microfilm, Wolff collapses into a couch as he realizes the Japanese spy that got away 22 years ago has outwitted him, and he can only stare in disbelief.]]
* PhenotypeStereotype: Bauer hits a lot of the points the ideal Aryan would have, with good looks, [[IcyBlueEyes piercing blue eyes]], and [[BlondesAreEvil blond hair]].
* SherlockScan: Wolff has enough spying experience that he can spot a lot of tiny little details that a lesser-trained officer like Bauer would miss.
* TheSpymaster: Wolff is the head of the local spy agency, and is the closest foreign counterpart to Yuuki in the series.
* VeteranInstructor: Wolff is a veteran of UsefulNotes/WorldWarI and has more or less taken Bauer in under his wing in spy work.
* WorthyOpponent: By the end of it all, Wolff definitely seems to have this impression of Yuuki and the D Agency.

* EveryoneHasStandards: The D Agency works for the Imperial Japanese Army who were responsible for various war atrocities in UsefulNotes/TheSecondSinoJapaneseWar and UsefulNotes/WorldWarII. But their members never killed anyone as it’s in their manifesto, committed something that would cross the line or participated in any of these war crimes. The closest thing that they got is nearly ruining the life of Aaron Price, a British spy who is investigating their boss Yuuki. But at least, Yuuki is kind enough to put Aaron and his wife back together afterwards so that they can rebuild.
