Thanks a lot!
Now I can start programs such as sylpheed with a jap look, and I can look at kanji with ease;
but I still can not write anything other than romaji.
What am I missing?

Anyway, here's my .session :
if [ -z "$XAUTHORITY" ]; then
        XAUTHORITY=$HOME/.Xauthority
        export XAUTHORITY
fi

LANG=it_IT@euro
export LANG
LC_CTYPE=ja_JP.eucJP
export LC_CTYPE
LC_MESSAGES=it_IT@euro
export LC_MESSAGES
/usr/bin/X11/kinput2-canna &
xmodmap -e 'keycode 96 = Kanji'

And the script:
#!/bin/bash
XMODIFIERS="@im=kinput2i-canna" LANGUAGE=it_IT@euro LANG=ja_JP.eucjp
LC_ALL=ja_JP.eucJP $1 &
