Still waiting for Japanese support. At the moment the only decent Japanese keyboard on Android are either GBoard or Microsoft one unfortunately.

Have you tried fcitx with the Anthy plugin? I use that for Japanese.

Thank you for bringing up the app to me!

I started learning Japanese as I started using Heliboard, for now I just swap back when I need it. GBoard doesn't play nice with the language button switching between apps so I just use the OS keyboard button and have the language button disabled everywhere, which also frees up some space!
