Cultures are different…

And the Japanese culture is probably one of the most different cultures in the world.  They do care about their privacy and they do care to be social.  You won’t see too many real faces on their profiles.  Most of the communication in relationships are done through mobile texting.  In terms of the web usage this gives a better perspective (thanks to Woosung Ahn): http://www.slideshare.net/revoline/what-facebook-might-consider-in-japan-presentation

Interestingly : niconico has an english beta site.

Amusingly, they have their own theme song as well…  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VedbyCYIeLs&feature=related
