I check your two cases, it looks correct to me:
1) assumed utf-8 character shows as (c) on us-ascii terminal (7-bit
approximation by lynx chartrans), and
2) -raw mode means input characters mapped directly to terminal
unless they are restricted by the terminal charset (both bytes >127
in your example, they are not available in us-ascii repertoire,
so they are ignored silently).

This was not changed since 2.8.3 at least.

I see the other starange thing here:
pressing '@' will not change anything for me with your sample,
switching cjk-mode in O)ption menu do change in fact.
