I don't think that gettext is Russian-focused. At
https://babel.postgresql.org/ I see a number of languages, including
Japanese.
Please look at the attached .pot for one of the doc files. You can use
any translation software (which supports .po (e.g. poedit, Lokalize,
...)) to translate it to any language.
And you can look at all the docs converted to .po for translation:

Unfortunately I can't read Japanese and don't understand how Japanese
FreeBSD team works (and why cant it use the gettext technologies) , but
the main FreeBSD Documentation team is moving to PO (see
https://www.bsdcan.org/2016/schedule/track/Hacking/680.en.html)
