Its something I have long wanted to ask someone in involved about. Perhaps Barron or another official felt children may not understand him when they filmed so that is why he did not have much more than simple lines and grunted. I found a link here that suggest just this and that Obata could not speak English. While I agree we could learn a few lines of another language and say it for the film so logically so could the Japanese actor,but its just not the direction the creators went in.
