In English, you would say it directly. The Japanese refuse to say it directly, and are thus incapable of translating it into English. The Japanese are full-blooded Orientals and can't not conform to their local norms. Japanese translators are forced to stop at a Frankenstein pidgin which is a horrible desecration of both Japanese and English.
Perhaps it's best to not even mention the many fan translators who are fluent in neither English nor Japanese, but the Japanese are so crippled it's only a marginal problem.

New failcomment system also fails to publish my comments, it's not limited to yours. Keep trying, it will usually work, eventually.
Blogger deliberately trying to kill itself, I expect.
Captchas should be off. If it gives you one anyway, it's against my explicit instructions.
