Re: Konsole displays some characters wrong

Ok, Monospace is an alias of IPAGothic on your environment.

The font, IPAGothic provides double-width down-allow glyph
although Konsole assumes that the glyph should have the same width as
glyphs such as 'a' and '0'.

A solution is to use another font such as DejaVu Sans Mono.
You can change fonts from:
Settings > Edit Current Profile... > Appearance

If you do not need Japanese fonts, please uninstall ipa-gothic-fonts.
So another font is to be selected for Monospace.
