Mega. Or you might not be in Japanese locale, so it is trying and failing to give the files the correct characters.
Ah, yeah I ain't even gonna bother if its requiring me to change my locale lol, even using the emulator it fails so I'm calling it a wash
You just need to change the setting for non-unicode programs. The rest of your computer will still be in whatever language you use, but some niche ones might change to japanese. The only issue I've ever had with it is asus ezupdate for updating my bios is in Japanese.

How do you go about changing locale? And is it possible to change back afterwards?
Windows settings-> time and language-> language-> administrative language settings-> administrative-> language for non-unicode programs.
Pretty much has been necessary for maximum compatibility for years in various forms.
Edit: There is a "beta" setting there which I haven't seen before though, which is REALLY weird for my standard install of windows. I'm not even opted in for any betas right now on windows 10. I'd leave that unchecked.

Can someone please reupload with the correct locale (so I don't see scrambled text on the files)?
I can't do the locale trick on Android and I've been playing a lot of games from here that are correctly displaying japanese file names...

cant be done. image writing the game in japanise, thats the situation. when you launch the game its going to try to read it in english; but since its not in english, it dosnt know the language. adding japanise to system local is like teaching your computer to read jap code.
adding subtitle language options is very diffrent from the game itself being written in another language
How to fix naming issue: use WinRAR for files that contain japanese text. This works both ways, conserves jap filenames when storing, AND lets you fix broken encoding when extracting. (Open a broken zip in WinRAR and press ctrl-e, select 932 Japanese Shift-JIS, extract like normal)
Note: You can still use other apps like 7z to *store* as other formats, but winrar itself is needed to fix already broken ones. It's specifically .zip format that breaks asian text in filenames.

www-img-titles1, for me it was the first thing in there, it had a crazy name. I just re-titled it but uploading this and deleting that should fix it!
There's still a ton of files that have Japanese names so the issue will show up eventually just download WinRar and follow the instructions like here
