I can't read the text, but I have the book and I can fold the model from the diagrams. What step(s) in particular are you having trouble with? I might be able to help you even without translating it.

i have this book as well and as you are an intermediate folder, if you cannot understand these diagrams maybe you should try something simpler and work your way up to more complex models. that way you will inherently understand what is going on in any diagram. then you can eventually try models with really complex diagrams like robert j lang, satoshi kamiya, or hojyo takashi. try picking up a copy of "Origami design secrets" by robert j lang(the second edition should be coming out soon). in this book he has a great chapter explaining how things are diagramed and what all the symbols mean. its all in english and will help you to understand the universal language of the diagram, because quite honestly, if the diagrams are well done(and kawasakis are) and you are an expereinced folder, you should easyily be able to interpret any diagram, no matter what language barrier is in place. good luck!
