title: Having trouble with Japanese character "〜" in Android
body: <p>I don't know how to read Japanese - I don't know what this character means. </p>
  
  <p>We are using encoding UTF-8 in our XML file and can see all other Japanese characters in our app except for "〜", which shows up as a box. "〜" shows up in Eclipse, tried replacing it with a tilde (~), but the tilde is smaller and looks slightly different (〜 vs ~) in our app.</p>
  
  <p>On Google Translate, it interprets the character as a tilde <a href="http://translate.google.com/#ja/en/%E3%80%9C" rel="nofollow">http://translate.google.com/#ja/en/%E3%80%9C</a></p>
  
  <p>In Android, we have used &amp;#12316; and \u301C but they both show up as boxes.</p>
  
  <p>An example of how the character is used "気分が悪いよ〜！"</p>

  <p>My question: This is the only character that's missing for us (we have an American Android phones and changed the language to Japanese). How do we make this character show up?</p>
