On my linux box (with english locale and texlive 2014), the following code will generate warning.

\documentclass{article} 
\usepackage{luatexja-fontspec}
\begin{document}
\end{document}

LaTeX Font Warning: Font shape `JY3/mc/m/sl' undefined
LaTeX Font Warning: Font shape `JY3/mc/m/it' undefined

How can I suppress these warnings?

The reason is that luatexja does not define \slshape and \itshape for Japanese fonts as default.

Minimal example:

\documentclass{minimal}
\usepackage{luatexja}
\begin{document}
\itshape
\end{document}

Almost all Japanese (and Chinese?) fonts do not have italic shape. For example,

\documentclass{minimal}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\begin{document}
\fontspec{IPAMincho}\itshape
\end{document}

generates

LaTeX Font Warning: Font shape `EU2/IPAMincho(0)/m/it' undefined
(Font)              using `EU2/IPAMincho(0)/m/n' instead on input line 4.
