She has thrown things at him when he's in the middle of a fight, once been about to apologize for hitting him for hugging Shampoo when under MindControl only to instead break off the apology and hit him for it again, constantly takes the side of his rival Ryoga Hibiki, accused Ranma of being in league with [[DirtyOldMan Happosai]], accused Ranma of being a PantyThief and even a potential rapist, left herself open in the middle of a fight to focus on accusing Ranma of impropriety, and in general been as much of a torment to Ranma as his rivals. That he is still attracted to her despite the constant misunderstandings, bickering and violence is morbidly impressive.

Meanwhile, Lithuania sees Belarus as a love interest, while she's not interested but still breaks his fingers while on a date. Subverted with Hungary, who beat up her future husband Austria ''before'' she became his love interest.
