### Affected Language

🇯🇵 Japanese

### What type of report is this?

Suggested Improvement

### Affected Service (Game name, hub, or menu):

Hide and Seek taunt

### Affected Text

アホロートルのバルーン

### Suggested Text

ウーパールーパーのバルーン

### Explanation of Issue

The Japanese translation アホロートル is a direct translation of Axolotl.  
However, the official Japanese name in Minecraft is ウーパールーパー so I think using ウーパールーパー would be more appropriate.
