I know Japanese myself, and I worked very closely with our brillant translator

He's literally saying that he worked with a professional translator and when you're translating you must adapt to the local culture to land the joke. So I don't understand the problem

Yes and if he worked with a translator in any other language he would not be able to have that level of involvement.
