The odd thing is that I can revert back and forth between the two
versions. If I remove the Japanese text and resave the templates
non-ascii text will no longer work. If I add the Japanese text back it
will work again. I have explicitly saved the templates as utf-8 from vim
using the ':set enc=utf-8' command on all the templates before saving.

I am thinking it may be something with TT, but I have set the ENCODING
option in the TT view module.

I will keep investingating and let you know what I find.
