I just wonder why they do this kind of thing - is it
because the Japanese translators actually don't understand the English
or is it because they are just putting things there at random because
translating it correctly would be too much trouble?

I suspect it's the former.

This particular example might make you think that, but I'd need to get
someone who'd seen the whole show to really understand what I mean - the
thing is that sometimes they have the judges saying things that they
certainly didn't say at all. If I can work out how to get clips uploaded
somehow it would be interesting to show some more examples.

You are right, camera or a recorder next time on is a typical example
to unmask completely the clip for public view
