Japanese characters support on Flatpak missing

Browser Support Desktop Support
1

Using the Flatpak version of Brave, Japanese characters aren’t rendering at all, rather get’s the fail-over square box for every character.

How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. Install flatpak version of Brave from here: https://flathub.org/apps/com.brave.Browser
  2. Go to yahoo.co.jp
  3. Observe almost entire site is unreadable

Expected result:
Hiragana, Katakana, and Kanji are all to be rendered.

Brave Version( check About Brave ):
1.52.126
