Have desktop Google Chrome language settings different from Android OS language

I have an Android phone synced with my Google Account. I changed the language settings to have both Japanese (as first choice) and English as a second for the entire OS.



Android (OS wide) language settings





Back to Desktop:



Now this is, for some reason, changing my accepted languages in Google Chrome and most sites appear in Japanese, but I want all of my sites to be in english.



Note: Google Chrome itself IS in english, the websites however are requested in japanese.



My Google Chrome settings are as they should be, with English as my first option. I have even tried removing Japanese and no dice.



Google Chrome language settings



I have checked



C:UsersMYUSERAppDataLocalGoogleChromeUser DataDefault



and locales are always



{"accept_languages":"ja-JP,en-GB,ja,en-US,en","charset_default":"windows-1252"}



and even if I close Chrome and change the order, save the file and open the process again, it (probably) syncs again and it's back to the same settings, with accept_languages starting with ja-JP.



Has anyone encountered a problem similar to this or has any pointers into what I can do to have Android in Japanese and Google Chrome on desktop in english requesting sites in english?



Thank you!



EDIT: My Google Account language settings only have English as an option.
