I just opened Open Office for the first time.  It doesn't

t>he box.A I get some nice little boxes but no text.
Cut/past from Firefox behaves the same.

Sounds like the classic setup issue: AFAIK you need to go to the Language Settings (Tools/Options) in OO general language options, and enable Asian languages and choose Japanese (if you want a default as well). Then restart OO, and go to OO Writer options where you should now have a new option called "Asian fonts (basic)", and choose some Asian fonts there.
