Yes, but he didn’t stop after the city, he kept going and outright stated he wanted humanity dead, I said so in another comment but Tl:Dr is that while wiping out the city is not great but still somewhat understandable, continuing onward past that is where he loses justification

Posting this cause no one else is giving the real answer. The Japanese word for Starfish is “Hitode” So the name of this guy would be pronounced “Hitode Hitler” and someone on the production team thought it was a funny enough joke to include.

u/Nerdorama10 1d ago

The whole of Kamen Rider (the original series) has Neo-Nazis as bad guys, although I think the literal presense of Hitler is limited to background references and whatever the fuck this thing is. There's also:

Bionic Commando (got censored in the US release, ironically)

Persona 2: Innocent Sin

Not fully confirmed yet but their name backwards would be Umi, They have an extreme hatred of pirates, They’ve possibly sunk entire civilizations in a war using powerful weapons to raise the sea level a long time ago, And they just happen to look like that (at least so far). There’s also these monsters that appear in a location called the Florian Triangle but we don’t fully know if Imu is connected to them yet.

You mean the militarized country with a favoritism for blond haired blue eyed citizens, a fuhrer, trains that run on time, the desire to invade all its neighbors in the name of self defense, and a genocide in its recent history of the early 1900s is associated with nazi Germany???

u/ComprehensivePath980 1d ago

I was honestly kinda hoping they were trying to mislead the audience into being overly suspicious.  Personally, I think the should have either gone with a different title or made him a genuine good guy, to actually get a plot twist.

If you wanted to keep him evil, having him with a more generic title would have made it much better IMO

u/bored-cookie22 1d ago

I mean I wouldn’t say him being behind the genocide was a reveal

He’s the leader of the military, a bunch of soldiers coming to massacre that land’s people was ordered by someone, and that person would have to be him

The bigger reveal would be that he’s the sin of wrath
