Windows is just a very bad operating system if it doesn't even allow you to have folders with colons in their names.

I'll try changing kitsunekko-tools to sanitize folder names before they're created. Until then, you can always use GNU/Linux to work around this issue.

The repository doesn't have any names with colons anymore so you should be able to clone it on any machine now.

error: invalid path 'subtitles/18-sai, Niizuma, Furin Shimasu./.kitsuinfo.json'

This name doesn't contain colons either. I suspect this is a different issue from this one.

I think this is because of the ? symbol.
