Background
"OMAJINAI★Perori" is the first single released by Perfume (then ぱふゅ→む). It was released as a regular CD only edition. The song title translates roughly to "Gulping Down a Good Luck Charm" and describes the feelings and sentiments of young girls on the first day of school. The lyrics of the pre-chorus describe writing the Japanese kanji character for "person" (人, hito) three times in the palm of one's hand and licking it up, a common aspect of Japanese folklore used to prevent nervousness and bring about incoming dominance over others (primarily with children).
