usually happens when the language is set to a language that isn't installed (or the language is set to a language of incorrect case f.e. en_gb is not the same as en_GB)

your log shows
en_gb is installed and locale is set to en_US.UTF-8

try changing the language in Kodi

if that does not help then verify the files are accessible and installed correctly


being that you installed a build provided by Manajo you may need to seek their assistance as if it is not the above issues then it is a packaging issue


sidenote: your log also indicates virtualbox may be in use (kodi is installed in a virtual machine?) - if this is the case then you need to compare to a bare metal installation as virtual environments are not supported

Yes I've tried  fresh install of manjaro with virtualbox but my sistem is native installed.
I can't install any addon because menus are empty. I'll try to install by hand and change via web interface.

Make sure you have necessary Noto fonts installed - in Debian we install noto-fonts-hinted | noto-fonts-unhinted

I've installed manjaro in English language, everythings working fine. I'm suspecting missconfigured locales on my native system. I'll check asap.

Thanks for your advice.
