It seems that Sqlite FTS don’t support searching Japanese characters according to my experiments , and discussion here.
#select * from tblEvent_shortdes where short_des MATCH 'BSジャパンの見どころ'
#return nothing
select * from tblEvent_shortdes where short_des MATCH 'パンの見'
Customize tokenizer in FTS seems to be the way to accomplish this but I did not found any promising open sourced tokenizer for Japanese. Will ICU tokenizer do?
You might take a look at ChaSen and MeCab. It has been several years since I used either – and it looks as though neither has been updated recently – but both proved adequate at Japanese tokenization.
