No, sorry. But a remark regarding your settings:

You don't need and probably should not set LC_ALL, because that
overrides all other LC_* variables. Also if you already exported
XMODIFIERS above, you don't need to specify it when starting the
application.

So this should be sufficient:

export LC_CTYPE=ja_JP
export XMODIFIERS="@example.com=kinput2"
kinput2 -canna -xim &

application &

Much less to type :-)
