* [[Sibling Yin-Yang]]: [[The Big Guy|Holland]] and [[Bokukko|Belgium]]: Belgium is all smiles when Netherlands shows up in Spain's home, but he's all growls instead. Double in the anime, which adds the contrast between Belgium's cheery and somewhat high-pitched voice and Netherlands's much deeper tone. Also, according to Vol 3 notes:

* [[Chekhov's Gunman]]: It's not as apparent in the webcomic/manga ([[Schedule Slip|as Himaruya has been known to update things ''years'' later, and the manga comes out around two times a year]]), but so much in the anime: She first appeared in the very first episode, only to become more or less important ''93 episodes later''--in other words, ''four seasons later''.

* [[Shorttank]]: She seems to be the adult version of this trope. As well, despite looking like [[The Ojou]] when she was younger, her personality seems more suited to this.

* [[Tsurime]]: While not nearly as pronounced as Netherlands' Belgium's eyes are often drawn a bit sharper than the other girls'. This is especially apparent when comparing her to Hungary, Liechtenstein, or Taiwan.

* [[Strong Family Resemblance]]: When his [[Letting Her Hair Down|hair is down]] his bangs look almost identical to Belgium's. This is even more prominent when you compare his un-styled hair to [[Gender Flip|Belgium's Nyotalia counterpart]].

* [[Tsundere]]: He is described as a Type A. Might have been confirmed in canon, as Netherlands speaks and acts very roughly but is still willing to keep contact with isolationist!Japan, putting up with his [[Hikikomori]] quirks rather patiently and bringing his pet bunny around. In fandom with [[Foe Yay|Spain]], this is his main characteristic.
