It will happen only if the user option `w3m-language' is set to
"Japanese".  The default value of `w3m-language' is determined
according to whether Emacs' language environment (actually the
value of `current-language-environment') is "Japanese" or not.
Haven't you set it to "Japanese", e.g.,

(set-language-environment 'Japanese)

, for some reason?  Even so, you can set `w3m-language' to nil
in the ~/.emacs file (not the ~/.emacs-w3m.el file) before
loading any emacs-w3m module.
