Additional Comments

You should, of course add the appropriate fonts to the fine fonts dir, but you need to do the same thing on Windows too.

Before you install wakan copy from a Windows installation (or from somewhere over the internet) to your local fonts dir (~/.wine/drive_c/Windows/Fonts) these fonts: 'mingliu.ttc', 'msmincho.ttc', 'msgothic.ttc', and 'simsun.ttc' - they are required in order to display the kanji and the kana. After you install and run the program for first time the application will start a bug message would pop up with three options: 'Quit', 'Send e-mail' or 'Countinue'. You need to click in rapid succession 'Countinue' Several times (in my case arround ten) in order to get the past the bug message and start the application. This issue occurs only during the first run and it will not bother you after that.
