You cannot mix different charsets/encodings in the output to the browser. So you can either send UTF-8 OR Shift-jis.
You can use UTF-8 internally and in an outputfilter convert the complete output from UTF-8 to Shift-jis (using mb_convert_encoding).
Smarty is not (really) equipped to deal with charsets other than ASCII supersets (like Latin1, UTF-8) internally.
