Trivia

 * The character portrayal, while humorous to some, is considered racist by others as it played upon common themes and stereotype portrayals in U.S. WWII era propaganda films and cartoons. The episode is sometimes left out of syndication rotation in some markets.
 * The look of the Japanese Sailor bears an incredible resemblance to published U.S. WWII propaganda images, including those drawn by Dr. Seuss.
