I still haven't figured out a way to *reliably* extract Japanese SJIS zip files on Linux. unzip/7z work on files with extended UTF-8 filenames. unzip always mangles SJIS. LANG=C 7z passes through SJIS and convmv can convert to UTF-8, but that mangles UTF-8 extended zips.
Windows has never done UTF-8, like, anywhere. They jumped on the UCS-2 bandwagon then got screwed with the horrible-every-way UTF-16 mess, and still use whatever the legacy local encoding is for non-Unicode files and APIs.

And if you think that's fun, consider that Japanese Windows still has that horrible hack where fonts have ¥ glyph for \. As in they literally display U+005C the same as as U+00A5, making those two characters indistinguishable, and giving a lovely C:¥> prompt.

Hahaha that's the one! Fun thing is also changing your console to 65001 on windows. Works with some, doesn't with other (e.g. python3 vs python2)
