Yah, even in Japanese he just has to announce what he's about to do. But since it's a bravery attack it's a neccessary evil. (Though try fighting against HP attacks in kanji you're not going to be able to register quickly enough let alone read and try to figure out how to combat them. There is a reason I hate Japanese CoD so much...)
Though when Japanese!Sephiroth calls out Octaslash I am not relieved at all. Know why? Because he booms "斬る!" (Slice, cut, lop off, use a blade, kill a human etc.) which sounds exactly like "KILL!". Hearing this from Sephiroth, specifically japanese!Sephiroth, as he uses a bastard HP attack that probably WILL 斬る me...yeah, you can understand the fear.
