Overview
PERFECT HUMAN is a song by RADIO FISH, a Japanese dance and vocal unit assembled around the comedy duo Oriental Radio, a background that contrasts sharply with the track's self-coronating, almost anthem-like swagger. Composed and arranged by JUVENILE, the song debuted as a digital single in December 2015 and later anchored RADIO FISH's first physical CD album, also titled PERFECT HUMAN, in May 2016.
In maimai, PERFECT HUMAN joined the song list at the launch of MURASAKi and runs over a shortened version of its official music video used as the in-game background. Its stay in the arcade was brief: licensing restrictions confined the song to Japanese cabinets and led to its removal from all machines on July 11, 2019. Outside maimai, the track also appeared in Taiko no Tatsujin and DANCERUSH STARDOM, the latter of which similarly dropped it in March 2021 for licensing reasons.
