No way I'm reading a translation done by a woman when it comes to that book.

people whose whole personality is "i've never had sex" should be banned from the internet and i say this as a confirmed wizard

Seriously, why does "Le Sad Incel, Japan" need another TL?

As the translator Donald Keene points out in his introduction, the actual title is closer to the meaning of "disqualified from being human", as in he felt exterior to humanity, lacking the quality that made people human from the outset rather than some specific event or transition over time.
Like the metaphor of the Bell Jar in Plath's novel, which isolates Esther from real contact with the world, Dazai's Yozo feels that same barrier.
The problem in both characters is not that they couldn't attract other people, or weren't capable, it was that the feeling of authenticity, satisfaction and a grounding of the self to reality continues to elude them.
Both Plath and Dazai committed suicide and put much of their own lives into these novels. Neither of which had to be sexless and unlikable to be unhappy.
