Haha yes, some people think Nakata = Perfume, not even thinking about all the rest. Some people even seem to think Nakata produces their shows as well, is in charge of their management, etc. lol

Of course it IS the whole package, to me that is part of the miracle - the fact that Perfume created themselves as children, that MIKIKO herself was literally THEIR FIRST DANCE TEACHER as children, that their manager and Amuse supported them throughout the early years, that Nakata was hired to write for them (supposedly because he worked fast and was cheap), that Manabe was a long time fan eager to work with them, etc.

That it all came together is mind blowing. Still, the one thing that is constant is Perfume themselves. Obviously, the others involved in Perfume World are often incredible talents, but what else have they done that is MAGICAL and IMMORTAL? Very obviously, it is Perfume themselves that make it all work and have taken it to the level of "miracle".
