YMMV / Hussar Ballad

• Memetic Mutation: Rzhevsky was practically a Fountain of Memes in Russia, spawning numerous jokes (many of which, for contrast's sake, have him interacting with the cast of War and Peace).
• War Ship: There are some fans out there who think Shura would have been better off with the gallant Spanish officer, her one-time prisoner Salgari. There are also viewers who aren't actively involved with shipping but believe there were some sparks between the two (especially in the scene where Salgari looks and sounds oddly happy for a man who has just been defeated and captured).
