I can't get Calibre to work properly with vertical Japanese text.

it doesn't have to be calibre, other epub editors of your choice would work too... (regardless whether they are able to display a preview, its the source code that matters... viewing it can be done on the reader itself)
for [vertical] japanese text, kepub is your only option anyhow. (if it worked in regular epub that would be news to me). so far I opted to edit the css in the book directly (e.g. to make furigana grey instead of black so I try to read kanji first). actually I also had to edit the HTML since the kobo does not handle furigana too well in the first place (prevents dictionary lookups, which could work better for japanese... oh well).
for more external stylesheet stuff you might have to switch to the alternate readers (koreader, coolreader), not sure if they have japanese support
