No one owns it because it's disputed. Taiwan's claims are just as legitimate as anyone else's. Read up on the history of the islands. It's no more Japan's than Taiwan's or China's, that's why it's disputed and it's hard to settle the dispute.

What is absolutely true is that Japan currently administers it, and neither Taiwan nor China likes it.
