There's tons of Japanese wordplay that is completely untranslatable to other audiences. The story obviously appeals to an international fanbase, but it's very much written from a Japanese perspective and takes place in Japan. It happens all the time in U.S. media as well - you can't translate certain phrases because without the lens of U.S. culture, they make absolutely no sense.
