I don't use ja_JP locale as default, because I'm learning Japanese as a foreign language. I have the package "language-selector" installed and already tried to switch completely to a Japanese desktop. I realized that there's a file called language-selector.conf in /etc/fonts/ (which links to /usr/share/language-selector/fontconfig/ja_JP) with everything needed to display the font nicely. Unfortunately all the other fonts began to look fuzzy, so I limited the content of the file to the Japanese language, which seems to work.
