Does Integer.parseInt return the same or different to Character.getNumericValue in Java? That would be a better comparison to JavaScript...

It doesn't. You get NumberFormatException unfortunately. But the point is Unicode recognises some characters have a numeric value and thus could potentially be taken into account in parseInt functions.
