1* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: China, instead of his usual happy disposition, is pliant, silent and broken. Japan is psychotic, obsessive and violent under a thin veil of creepy calmness that sort of resembles a twisted version of his canon inscrutable and polite character.
2* FridgeLogic:
3** A possibly rather unfortunate example in an otherwise TearJerker of a scene that would probably make your head explode if you tried to think of it too deeply: [[spoiler:Kiku murdering Asahiko... and said emperor having a relationship with a nation in general]]. Good luck trying to figure out how the heck that would translate to real life, as this is still supposed to be an alternate history, with the nations representing their, well, nations. This is probably why most Hetalia fanfiction trying to be realistic try to keep normal humans and nations separate. [[spoiler:Even if the assassination was supposed to be analogous to a successful coup or something, Kiku’s “affair with China” motivation would be a MindScrew in it of itself to translate]].
4** Also, [[spoiler:Korea straight-up dies at one point via being thrown out a window, [[PlotHole his nation immortality seemingly having stopped working]]]].
5* MindGameShip: Japan x China, if it wasn't made obvious already.
