Not an answer per se, but maybe bits of data giving someone else a lead: ネ
is Unicode code point 12493, or "\u30CD", which normalizes to itself in all
four Unicode normalization forms NFC, NFD, NFKC and NFKD, and which UTF-8
encodes to 0xE3, 0x83, 0x8D. I have no ideas about what the pretty-printing
or <ad>:s could be related to.
