* Task: Professional translation of an HTML fragment from Japanese to English.
* Rules:
* Output only the translated HTML.
* No preamble, no markdown code fences.
* Keep all HTML tags, attributes, and order exactly as-is.
* Translate only visible text.
* Keep numbers, percentages, and dates unchanged.
* Do not translate brand/site names (Stripchat, Chaturbate, CamSoda, Cam4, BongaCams).
* Maintain a neutral, factual tone.
* Do not add or remove content.
* *Paragraph 1:* "2026年7月27日から8月2日までの1週間を対象に、主要なライブ配信サービスにおいて「日本語が通じる」と表示された配信者の割合を調査しました。全体の日本語対応率は2.2%にとどまり、多くの配信では日本語でのコミュニケーションが難しい現状が浮かび上がりました。以下では、サイト別の傾向と、そのデータから読み取れる特徴を整理します。"
* *Translation:* We investigated the percentage of streamers listed as "Japanese-speaking" on major live streaming services for one week from July 27 to August 2, 2026. The overall Japanese support rate remained at 2.2%, highlighting a current situation where communication in Japanese is difficult in many streams. Below, we organize the trends by site and the characteristics that can be read from the data.
* *Heading 1:* "全体傾向：極端に低い日本語対応率とサイト間の格差"
* *Translation:* Overall Trends: Extremely Low Japanese Support Rate and Disparities Between Sites
* *Paragraph 2:* "今回の集計では、対象となった5サイトの配信者数合計約7.2万人に対し、日本語対応が確認できたのは全体で1,555人、率にして2.2%でした。これは、100人の配信者に出会っても日本語で話せるのが2人程度に過ぎないことを意味します。さらにサイト別に見ると、この低い割合は均一ではなく、特定のサイトに日本語対応が偏っている状況が明らかになりました。Stripchatが6.2%と唯一1%を超える対応率を示した一方で、他の4サイトはいずれも0.1%から0.5%の範囲にとどまり、日常的に日本語で配信を楽しめる環境はごく限られています。"
* *Translation:* In this tally, out of a total of approximately 72,000 streamers across the five target sites, Japanese support was confirmed for 1,555 people in total, a rate of 2.2%. This means that even if you encounter 100 streamers, only about 2 of them can speak Japanese. Furthermore, looking at it by site, it became clear that this low percentage is not uniform and that Japanese support is skewed toward specific sites. While Stripchat showed a support rate of 6.2%, the only one to exceed 1%, the other four sites all remained within the range of 0.1% to 0.5%, meaning the environment where one can routinely enjoy streams in Japanese is very limited.

* *Translation:* Stripchat: Out of 23,015 streamers, 1,433 are Japanese-speaking (6.2%). It has the highest number of streamers among the target sites, and the number of Japanese-speaking streamers is also prominent.

* *Translation:* Chaturbate: Out of 20,882 streamers, 28 are Japanese-speaking (0.1%). Although the base number of streamers is the second largest after Stripchat, Japanese support is extremely few.

* *Translation:* Bongacams: Out of 9,748 streamers, 23 are Japanese-speaking (0.2%). Only a few Japanese-speaking streamers can be found per day.
* *List Item 4:* "Camsoda：配信者数9,689人中、日本語可は47人（割合0.5%）。0.5%という数字は、他の低率サイトの中ではやや高いものの、依然として日本語で話せる可能性は低いといえます。"
* *Translation:* Camsoda: Out of 9,689 streamers, 47 are Japanese-speaking (0.5%). While the figure of 0.5% is slightly higher among the other low-rate sites, the possibility of being able to speak Japanese is still low.
* *List Item 5:* "Cam4：配信者数8,499人中、日本語可は24人（割合0.3%）。こちらも全体平均を下回る水準です。"
* *Translation:* Cam4: Out of 8,499 streamers, 24 are Japanese-speaking (0.3%). This is also below the overall average level.
* *Paragraph 4:* "このように、Stripchat以外のサービスでは、日本語対応の配信者数が20〜40人台と非常に少なく、配信を探す際に日本語が使えるケースは稀であることが分かります。"
* *Translation:* As such, in services other than Stripchat, the number of Japanese-speaking streamers is very low, in the 20s to 40s, showing that cases where Japanese can be used when searching for streams are rare.
* *Heading 3:* "データから見える視聴者への示唆"
* *Translation:* Implications for Viewers Seen from the Data
* *Paragraph 5:* "この集計結果は、日本語で配信者とやりとりをしたい視聴者にとって、Stripchatが相対的に可能性の高い選択肢であることを示しています。ただし、Stripchatでも日本語対応率は6.2%であるため、10人に1人も日本語が通じない計算になります。そのため、日本語対応のタグやプロフィール表示を手がかりに配信者を絞り込むことが、効率的な体験につながると考えられます。一方、他のサイトでは日本語対応がほとんど見込めないため、言語のサポートを重視する場合は配信者数に惑わされずに、あらかじめ対応率を踏まえた選択が有効でしょう。全体として、今回の期間におけるデータからは、日本語が通じる配信は依然としてニッチであり、利用にあたっては言語面の期待値をあらかじめ調整しておくことの重要性がうかがえます。"
* *Translation:* These tally results indicate that for viewers who wish to interact with streamers in Japanese, Stripchat is a relatively high-probability option. However, since the Japanese support rate is 6.2% even on Stripchat, it calculates to fewer than 1 in 10 people understanding Japanese. Therefore, narrowing down streamers using Japanese support tags or profile displays is thought to lead to a more efficient experience. On the other hand, since Japanese support can hardly be expected on other sites, if language support is prioritized, it would be effective to make a choice based on the support rate in advance without being misled by the number of streamers. Overall, the data from this period suggests that streams where Japanese is understood remain niche, and it highlights the importance of adjusting language expectations in advance when using these services.

Overall Trends: Extremely Low Japanese Support Rate and Disparities Between Sites
In this tally, out of a total of approximately 72,000 streamers across the five target sites, Japanese support was confirmed for 1,555 people in total, a rate of 2.2%. This means that even if you encounter 100 streamers, only about 2 of them can speak Japanese. Furthermore, looking at it by site, it became clear that this low percentage is not uniform and that Japanese support is skewed toward specific sites. Stripchat showed a support rate of 6.2%, the only one to exceed 1%, while the other four sites all remained within the range of 0.1% to 0.5%, meaning the environment where one can routinely enjoy streams in Japanese is very limited.
Figures and Characteristics of Each Site
The number of streamers and the status of Japanese support by site recorded during the investigation period are as follows.
Stripchat: Out of 23,015 streamers, 1,433 are Japanese-speaking (6.2%). It has the highest number of streamers among the target sites, and the number of Japanese-speaking streamers is also prominent.
Chaturbate: Out of 20,882 streamers, 28 are Japanese-speaking (0.1%). Although the base number of streamers is the second largest after Stripchat, Japanese support is extremely few.
