NEVER MIND. I figured it out:
; detects japanese characters
; contains-japanese-characters? str -> bool
(define (contains-japanese-characters? s)
(or (regexp-match #rx"[\u3041-\u3096]" s) ; Hiragana
(regexp-match #rx"[\u30A0-\u30FF]" s) ; Katakana (Full Width)
(regexp-match #rx"[\u3400-\u4DB5\u4E00-\u9FCB\uF900-\uFA6A]" s) ; Kanji
(regexp-match #rx"[\u2E80-\u2FD5]" s) ; Kanji Radicals
(regexp-match #rx"[\uFF5F-\uFF9F]" s) ; Katakana and Punctuation (Half
Width)
(regexp-match #rx"[\u3000-\u303F]" s) ; Japanese Symbols and Punctuation
(regexp-match #rx"[\u31F0-\u31FF\u3220-\u3243\u3280-\u337F]" s) ; Misc.
Japanese Symbols/Chars
(regexp-match #rx"[\uFF01-\uFF5E]" s))) ; Alphanumeric and Punctuation
(Full Width)
