Japan/Taiwan

Japan/Taiwan is a pairing in the series Hetalia: Axis Powers. It involves the two characters Japan and Taiwan.

Fan Speculations
So far, Taiwan has not had any shown interaction in the webcomic with Japan, but an early illustration by Hidekaz Himaruya has her poking China on the cheek and telling him to leave Japan alone, which indicates that she prefers Japan over China (Though some fans think China is in love with Japan as well) and has led some fans to believe that she has a crush on Japan.

Due to their lack of canon interaction, fan interpretations of Japan and Taiwan's relationship are largely speculative, but it's generally assumed that China raised the other Asian nations as a family unit and that Japan and Taiwan hence likely grew up together, which would have given them time to interact with and potentially develop feelings for each other (Some fans argue that Japan or Taiwan could have developed feelings for any of the Asians, having been raised with all of them.)

A common depiction of their relationship has Taiwan's feelings for Japan being purely one-sided with Japan viewing her as only a little sister and Taiwan nonetheless being quite clingy or yandere towards him in a similar vein to the Belarus/Russia pairing.
