Public bug reported:

The date should be (and has been in previous Ubuntu versions) displayed
as follows (for YMD):

2018年5月4日 (the symbols clearly mean year, month, day).

Instead, they're displayed weirdly as "5月 4 2018" This is not the way a
date would ever be written in Japanese. In gnome this happens on the
lock screen as well.

If you were writing a date without the year it would be:

5月4日

it doesn't make sense to leave off the 日.
