The Terminal now supports Unicode (UTF-8), in principle, but whether it really works or not seems to depend on what process is running.
I have some folders with Japanese names. If I use "ls", the name is just displayed in the Terminal as a row of question marks. With "ls | more", though, Terminal displays the Japanese characters properly. With "ls | less", Terminal displays a set of codes. There seems to be no way to "cd" into a folder with a Japanese name.

try 'ls -v | less -r' instead
