I don't know why cp1251 et. al. work (probably they are single-byte encodings, and shift_jis is multi-byte).
However, try adding: <[EMAIL PROTECTED] contentType="text/html; charset=shift_jis" %> to your page. This will tell Tomcat that the Writer should use "shift_jis" as it's encoding. Since you can see the page as a ".html" file, you shouldn't need <[EMAIL PROTECTED] pageEncoding="shift_jis" %>, but if you ever save the file as "shift_jis", then you will need this directive as well.
