To enter Japanese in XEmacs, you don't really need XIM and SCIM.

Anthy alone is already enough.

Select the anthy input method with

   M-x set-input-method RET japanese-anthy RET

or even make it the default input method by adding

   (setq default-input-method 'japanese-anthy)

in your XEmacs init file (usually ~/.xemacs/init.el).

Switch the input method on and off with C-\.

Many XEmacs users prefer this to SCIM and XIM. With SCIM and XIM you
get "over the spot", with the XEmacs built in input methods you get
"on the spot" input style.

I mostly use the 'japanese-anthy input method in XEmacs as well, I use
SCIM and XIM in XEmacs mostly only for input methods XEmacs doesn't
already offer.
