The last character of each line will be wrapped, although none of the lines contain 76 characters.

Line breaks occur at 76 bytes, not at characters in UTF-8. Unfortunately, there is no way to change this with the current functionality of the lister.

Moved to will not be changed

Well, then you should update the TC help which currently says:

TextWidth=81
Text width (in characters)

Line breaks occur at 76 bytes, not at characters in UTF-8.

Then why doesn't this happen with UTF-16?

It also happens with UTF-16 when you have dual word characters like some Chinese ideograms (e.g. CJK Unified Ideographs Extension B, Range: 20000–2A6DF), or Emoji (Range: 1F600–1F64F).
