are you using a UI config with foobar? It may be the font used by the skin that doesn't have non-english characters

Does it work with other fonts? It could be a problem with the tags in your files. Try typing in the correct title/artist/whatever in the properties window and saving it to see if it's then displayed correctly.

What happens if you select another script in the font dialog?

Maybe the tag has to be written as UTF-8, not in the japanese codepage (Shift-JIS, ISO-2022 or any other). Check that.
