Ultimately, I just gave up and bought kbdedit, and that seemed to do the trick.

I tried using the method indicated in the webpage I linked above, but couldn't get it to work. The other program that I found, kbdedit, that allows you to do this, is locked behind a paywall. Normal keyboard layout editors, such as Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator 1.4 do not allow you to edit VK_KANA, which is the virtual key code that controls kana input. This webpage explains how you can use Visual Studio and Windows Driver Kit to edit a registry file called kbd106.dll to make japanese input compatible with ANSI.

I have configured my custom keyboard so that punctuation and numbers are in a different place.

If you have a keyboard configured with qmk that is physically not identical to the japanese JIS standard, you will have trouble using both languages.
