No idea if this was intended or not, but I laughed at the "YA!!!!" of Japan. It was just so out-of-character and hilarious. Hello Kitty seemed odd for the setting and place, particularly since China likes Shinatty-chan more than Kitty-chan, but whatever floats your boat, I suppose.
And then the last line totally sobered me up, which is pretty impressive, seeing as how I was ROFLMAO-ing badly.
Thumbs up and hats off for the open-ended ending though, I really enjoy those more than closed endings.

Hm, actually, I totally agree with that point, after WWII and everything, I don't think there's a nation that has yet to do something or another that's downright ruthless and brutal.

Black Kiku is angst win.
And generally, when I write stuff, I just spit it all out. That's it. Very little editing, spellcheck, and then I'm done. I really should wait a few days and then go look it over.
I also need to stop adding stuf to descriptions and dialogue when I'm editing. It usually to doesn't help in my case.

Er... I have no idea how to say this, but I felt that the whole of chapter two, particularly your reasoning behind using Barney and Hello Kitty as plot devices seemed really forced...

Really? How so? I will admit that stuff just kept jumping into my mind, and I just kept adding. xpp
But I was only able to write the sequel when I heard that song. Hmm...I think I added too much stuff. Next time I'll wait a while before and take some time to edit it, instead of just writing and posting.

Nations can be pretty bastardly at times, particularly when WWII is involved, or even WWI, if you think about it.

Is bastardly a word? It should be. =D
