FWIW I am running KDE in English and am able to input Japanese in OpenOffice.

Aside from locale settings you might need to change some settings in 
OpenOffice -- under Tools->Options->Language Settings you may need to enable
Asian language support under Languages.  I also needed to change the default
font from Bitstream Vera Sans to a Japanese font under Text Document --> Basic 
Fonts (Asian) to make things visible.

I have the following in my .i18n file:

LC_CTYPE="ja_JP.UTF-8"
XIM=htt


and:

> rpm -qa | fgrep iii
iiimf-emacs-11.4-46.1.svn1587
iiimf-protocol-lib-11.4-46.1.svn1587
iiimf-server-11.4-46.1.svn1587
iiimf-client-lib-devel-11.4-46.1.svn1587
iiimf-gtk-11.4-46.1.svn1587
iiimf-client-lib-11.4-46.1.svn1587
iiimf-protocol-lib-devel-11.4-46.1.svn1587
iiimf-x-11.4-46.1.svn1587
iiimf-le-canna-11.4-46.1.svn1587
iiimf-csconv-11.4-46.1.svn1587
iiimf-docs-11.4-46.1.svn1587


> locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE=ja_JP.UTF-8
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"


I also have:

GTK_IM_MODULE=iiim
XMODIFIERS=@im=htt

Though I don't appear to be explicitly setting them myself...  Other than that
the .i18n file gets caught so httx & friends get fired up when I first log 
in...
