Answering myself on Japanese, this actually works out of the box:
\setuplanguage[ja][patterns={ja}]\mainlanguage[ja]
\definefallbackfamily
[archimate]
[ss]
[Hiragino Sans]
[preset=range:japanese,
tf=style:W3,
it=style:W3,
bf=style:W5,
bi=style:W5,
force=yes]
\definefontfamily [archimate] [ss] [Optima]
\setupbodyfont[archimate]
\starttext
Some text. 他のテキスト\\
\stoptext
I have no idea why this works and if stuff is missing because more is needed than just the above. Of course the translation of italics into weights is nonsense, in Japanese that would probably mean using quite different characters (katakana?)
Am I missing something?

1. You need a font to typeset japanese.
2. Add \setscript[nihongo] to your document to enable line breaks.
%%%% begin example
\definefontfamily [noto-cjk-jp] [serif] [Noto Serif CJK JP]
[it={style:regular,features:{*,slanted}},
bi={style:bold,features:{*,slanted}}]
\definefontfamily [noto-cjk-jp] [sans] [Noto Sans CJK JP]
[it={style:regular,features:{*,slanted}},
bi={style:bold,features:{*,slanted}}]
\definefontfamily [noto-cjk-jp] [mono] [Noto Sans Mono CJK JP]
[it={style:regular,features:{*,slanted}},
bi={style:bold,features:{*,slanted}}]
\definetypeface [noto-cjk-jp] [mm] [math] [pagella] [default]
\setupbodyfont [noto-cjk-jp]
\setscript [nihongo]
\starttext
\rm\tf 日本語 \it 日本語 \bf 日本語 \bi 日本語
\ss\tf 日本語 \it 日本語 \bf 日本語 \bi 日本語
\tt\tf 日本語 \it 日本語 \bf 日本語 \bi 日本語
\stoptext
%%%% end example
