Works fine for me in previous versions, and in the current version. Of course, 
I don't know what encoding to use, so I just get nonsense. Please supply a lua 
script which prints japanese for us to test with.

"It is not displayed"

Does this mean that you get a blank screen, or that you get garbage?

So, "It is not displayed" means that you get a blank screen.

Is this the script which printed japanese in old versions of bizhawk? It's just 
one line of code. In fact, I need the whole script, as an attachment, so that 
whatever text encoding that file is using makes it through.

We've researched the issue further and actually disbelieve that japanese text 
ever printed in bizhawk, so before we can proceed, we need proof.

Bizhawk 1.6.1 work.
The sentence currently used for Lua is only this. 

while true do
gui.text(0,120,"てすとテスト手巣戸TESTtest")
    emu.frameadvance()
end

I've tried to reproduce your success with 1.6.1, and have not succeeded.  I've 
tried both GDI and D3D renderers, and various encodings for the .lua file, all 
resulting in the file failing to load or producing gibberish.  In addition, 
looking at the LuaInterface source code, there's every evidence that it mashes 
up character encodings soundly.

I believe you, but I think it worked for you in 1.6.1 due to some happenstance 
in matching encodings in various things, possibly aided by locale setting and 
other such stuff.

Moving forward, I want our Lua system to support unicode text, but I don't 
think it ever really did before and so I'm entering this as a feature request 
and not a bugfix.

We need *THE WHOLE SCRIPT, AS AN ATTACHMENT, SO THAT WHATEVER TEXT FILE 
ENCODING THAT FILE IS USING MAKES IT THROUGH*. Put it a in a Zip file.

Also, perhaps the OS language (the current locale) is involved in how some of 
the text processing gets done at one stage or another.

Bizhawk 1.7.3 and 1.7.4 not work.
lua is contained in the Zip file.
As for Japanese and some signs, no indication is given.

The file you provided doesnt work for me in bizhawk 1.6.1. Maybe as goyuken 
says, your OS language or encoding is relevant. His analysis is still valid: if 
this ever worked, it was an accident, and we need to undertake it seriously 
when the time comes.

Bizhawk 1.9.2 not work.
lua of the name decided by the character 2 bytes doesn't normally work.
