Bibtex is stupid enough to attempt to break this title over two
lines in its output, and it does so based on *bytes*, not characters.
The result is a linebreak in the middle of an utf sequence, which
is invalid. Please try this:

   title     = {{〇一二三四五六七八九〇一二三四五六七八九〇一二}},

and if that doesn't work (but it should), maybe this will:

   title     = {〇一二三四五六七八九〇一二%
                三四五六七八九〇一二},

Best wishes,
Taco
