Which input encoding are you using? Are you doing this at the command line or in the UI? I think things only work for non-Latin alphabets (this should change soon) if you use the terminal (./factor -run=listener) with the UTF-8 encoding in your terminal. It might be labeled "Unicode" rather than UTF-8. If this doesn't work, there's probably a bug.
Support for various Japanese encodings (ISO 2022, Shift JIS, EUC-JP) hasn't yet been implemented, unfortunately. However, internally Factor uses Unicode for everything. All source code read from a file is assumed to be in UTF-8. All strings can contain any code point and the I/O library supports several file encodings.
