I just played around with this two weeks ago. All you need is a Rakuten.co.jp account. Set it up in Japanese, then use that login with your American device or desktop app. Then you’ll have access to all your Japanese purchases.
There is something new happening in Japan this fall. The industry is pushing manga rentals like there’s no tomorrow. Most of the free manga are actually limited rentals now. I haven’t tried renting a manga yet and accessing it from Kobo Desktop, but what you’re describing sounds like regional lockout.
