Hello

This also happens for me.
The same phenomena is happened when using octgave-gui built on mingw.

This might be default code page (for me cp is 932) of the command prompt 
dependent.
Perhaps Octave-gui terminal uses console2 technique.  However, console2 does 
not work correctly for Japanese version of windows.

Anyway at least fior Japanese version windows, terminal of octave-gui does not 
work as expected.
