As I mentioned weeks ago, and finally got the time to finish writing and revising - here’s my second fill for this request. Have a try at yandere Japan, with a side of proto-yandere proto-North Korea.
March 1919
Mansei was the cry that went up across the peninsula - mansei, from the same kanji as banzai, calling for ten thousand years not for the Land of the Rising Sun, which would have been well enough if surprising, but for something that no longer existed even if its former avatars still did. They paraded, an army without weapons, as though they could recover the fallen Korean Empire through the sheer force of their voices.
Kiku allowed himself the luxury of staring for a brief time (Was it fear that stayed his hand, fear that moved it? Surely not). Then he began to issue his commands.
Like his twin brother, Yong Su came without resistance once caught. As Kiku’s officers took hold of his arms and pulled the flag from his hands he turned back to the white-clad crowd with head high and shouted “Mansei!” once more before being

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-
THIS. THIS STORY OF YOURS. WINS MY WHOLE HEART.
As a koreafag (well, a first generation one) and an anime otaku, I always found troubling how bad Japan and Korea get along. Sometimes I wish they didn't hate each other so much; your story granted my wish, if only for a little time and as fiction.
You sir should write some more, because this is truly amazing.

Oh. Oh wow, I'm so glad to hear that.
As it happens, I'm currently in the slow process of writing some more of this pairing for another request - wherein things are more mutual and Japan is less of a creeper than in this instance. When it's completed and posted (whenever, er, that may happen), I hope you'll like it as well.

I really liked how insane Japan is. He's like one of those crazy obsessed stalkers wanting everything from their love. It was sad yet it fitted the historical facts so well. So yeah even though they don't actually get along, it's not because Japan thinks Korea is trash; he just wants his love (in a crazy way)
So yes, I do look forward to your stories. Maybe there are hopes for one were Japan and Korea are actually getting along? that would be insanely cute. Shit; now I want to draw that.
