Comment (by strangeways):

 Cannot reproduce this in 2.12.0 running on the
 [https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/tools/vms/ IE11 on
 Win7] virtual machine. I simply created an empty channel on freenode and
 gave it an alias with Japanese characters, and then verified that said
 characters show up properly in the chat window and the buddy list, as well
 as in the tooltips that appear when hovering over the name in both
 windows. See attached screenshots.
