* {{Anvilicious}}: The series portrays a futuristic dictatorship caused by the modern threat of biological hazard, but the order's nationalistic tones, conservative ideology and general imagery all evoke very deliberately the old Francoist Spain, including some amusingly anachronistic 1940s-style clothing and atrezzo. This is not only another example of how Francoism is still the first thing Spaniards see when they think about authoritarism and dystopia, but also an unsubtle reminder to the viewer that yep, the series takes place in a very ''bad'' place.
* ClicheStorm: Many reviews, both positive and negative, tend to note that the series takes after many famous works of the dystopian genre and plays its tropes straight.
