This is expected behaviour. Due to space constraints, we can only fit a few language packs on the CD, and Japanese is one of them. These can be downloaded post-installation (well, or automatically during the installation, if there is network and Internet connectivity), which is why we show the notification message below. > 3.

Up until here this is expected behaviour. See http://testcases.qa.ubuntu.com/Install/NonEnglishLanguage#Installation% 20No%20Network > > 5.
