Look at the documentation:

    /**
      * Returns the language used by this object. The domain AND the
      * library translation must be available in this language.
      * 'C' is default, if no other available.
      *
      * @return The currently used language.
      */
    QString language() const;

So if you don't have the japanese library translations installed, it will 
return "C". 

You can use 

QString lang = locale->languageList()[0];

if you are interested in what language would return if the translations would 
have been installed :)

Bye,
Matthias.
