Liton,

You should install freewnn and kinput2.
Then do 'export LC_ALL=ja_JP" in your shell before running the desired application.  You should be able to input japanese into netscape, mozilla (some builds don't work for me), gnome, kde, kterm, and so on.
You should also read the manpages, some relevant howtos and the tlug archieves if things don't work.
Good luck.
