That's really stretching the idea, but I did listen to the song back then, and probably the whole album because why not—but nope, no relation. Now, the Princess Superstar's song is uncannily similar, also consisting largely of banter (though with noticeable differences in delivery)—but the Japanese connection eludes me. I, in fact, first discovered ‘Perfect’ randomly and rather recently through a remix, and then listened to all the other versions, and still found no leads. Googled for Japanese covers or sources, for good measure, to no avail.
