It’s perfectly normal unicode. It is merely not English. English isn’t the only language, and international domain names and TLDs have existed for over two decades now.

Luckily all internationalized TLDs are translated to punycode so you can type them with ASCII characters

.みんな = .xn–q9jyb4c

You can switch to a japanese layout, or use a compose key. Or just copy paste. :)
