Search for the "Apple II J-plus" - the Japanese II+ version...

I found this regarding the font switching:

POKE -16292,0 : activates the KATAKANA font set.
CTRL T : toggles between english and KATAKANA.

POKE -16291,0 : activates inverse english text and turns KATAKANA off.
CTRL T : toggles between regular and inverse text.
