there are two ways:

1. add XX-vlgothic.conf (XX<65) and set prefer list for lang=ja
2. remove 44-wqy-zenhei and 66-vlgothic, download and use my
65-language-{ja,zh}.conf files

what proper font config are you referring to?

first of all, this is already done in 65-language-{zh,ja}.conf in my
proposal,
we don't need two files to do the same thing!

second, fontconfig does need a config file to set the font orders for
non-CJK
locales, such as en_US. In my opinion, that is the exact purpose for
65-nonlatin. Add lang-tag matching only limit the rules to be effective
for CJK locales, and leave the font orders in non-CJK locales unspecified.
