htmlspecialchars() turns this japanese text submitted from a form:
&#12463;&#1252: &#26085;&#26412;&#35486;&#12398;&#34920;&#31034;&#12486;&#12473;&#12488;

into:

&amp;#12463;&amp;amp;#1252: &amp;#26085;&amp;amp;#26412;&amp;#35486;&amp;#12398;&amp;#34920;&amp;#31034;&amp;#12486;&amp;amp;#12473;&amp;#12488;
