A business partner did the translation for us and sent a Word document with the translation, which shows up fine. I copied and pasted the text into the Story Editor and shows up exactly as it should. Updating the text frame however replaces all the Japanese characters with red squares.

It could be a matter of font not defining these glyphs.
Be sure to use there a font that defines these glyphs.

If so and allways not good,
you could also export the document as .ODT and import it in scribus.
