I know that on the Taiwanese side there was definitely a feeling among the "pro-Japanese" that adding military service to the obligations of education and tax would help make them more "legitimate" Japanese citizens. There is a well-known short story written by 周金波 whose title is in fact, "志願兵." I haven't yet read it myself, but it was often criticized as being "collaborationist" literature. Great topic.
