Why is there no Japanese subforum?

[Komorebi]

日本語 is one of the most important languages in the world. Japanese is beautiful and important. Please add a Japanese subforum. We have many Bitcoin participants. Theymos, are you not a fan of Japan? I think you are. Thank you for this beautiful forums.

Local boards are added when there's demand for them and that doesn't seem to be the case yet with your local thread:

Google Translate is very poor at Japanese (and I'm not perfect). I said, "I love Japan, but I hardly ever see Japanese here, so a new section isn't necessary."

I guess why is that there were only few japanese in this forum even if we can consider that in japan bitcoin is quite known because they have their own forum for the crypto thingy?  I was just saying tho you know japanese usually has their own platform but still i am hoping that they would be here and share their knowledge

This is a good reason not to use google translate when speaking to others professionally. If both parties don't know a common language, at least disclose the use of an automated translation tool, so if something offensive is written in the translated language, the other party will know it may have been unintentional.

Maybe because there are only few Japanese users in this forum that's it's not yet added when multiple demands for a request to create a sub forum then the mods will add it. It would be a waste it they add something that had only few users in it and plus the server host doesn't have enough resources so creating a subforum should be with more users. I was wondering as well why there's no japanese sub forum. I actually love japan because of the inspiring anime's that ive watched and it's beautiful traditions and scenery's if possible i want to meet and talk to a japanese person here or in real life.

Altcoinに関する議論を活発にするため、多くの日本人メンバーが新しい区分を必要としています。
A lot of Japanese members need for sub forum to make Altcoin discussion active.

As a native Japanese speaker I can tell your Japanese is very fluent!  Strictly speaking, there exists the Japanese local board but no child boards, so the request is adding child boards for Japanese local board.  While I agree Japanese community is not that big, I do not think Japanese community is so small compared with other local communities that have child boards as well as local moderator:

Language	Posts	Topics
日本語 (Japanese)	29485	137
Eλληνικά (Greek)	31322	2333
Hrvatski (Croatian)	20875	1035
العربية (Arabic)	15169	1641

Note that the the number of posts and topics in Japanese board are data after the massive elimination of altcoin threads.  It seems to me that it is not unreasonable for Japanese community to have child boards.

Honestly, speaking there is no original forum for crypto things in Japan.
This forum was not that popular till last autumn, once it got popular but thanks to the massive delete of altcoin topics and no merit source, less and less people are coming to the forum.
I think main info source for Japanese is twitter and that is not a forum style.

Without, Japanese own child board, moderator and merit source, no more people are coming to this forum.
The late action of admin is already causing a significant loss for this forum, I hope they will react soon to stop Japanese people fading away from this forum.

GIVE US CHILDBOARD, MODERATOR, AND MERIT SOURCE.
