Aw I mean, misinterpretation, rather than mistranslation. but just my opinion.. Anyway, love this song.

A little thing, but the third line is actually “To become a woman liked by ‘you’”. A little mistranslation, definitely not “men” here. Also, this whole song sounds like saying to a particular loved person.

I’m not sure if I understand the “peach’s and plum thing” percisely, but I do get a crazy feel to this song, it’s that aweosme!♥

[...] songs are rather subdued than the high-octane, otaku-pandering stuff they do for games…. Their lyrics are still rather quirky though. So far they’ve done songs for three anime, firstly Mamotte! Lollipop’s ending theme [...]

It sounds like it’s one of those things that could easily be a double entendre, there are a few in English (anyone old enough to remember Mrs Slocombe from “Are you being served”, and “Her Pussy”? Just the title today would have a whole different meaning in the USA ;-).

Generally peaches are commonly meant to resemble backsides in Australia at least.

Given the other lyrics in the song I thought it was some reference to family, since the tongue twister on which the author says it is based refers to plums and peaches, being of the same family.

Don’t get hung up on the name, it is probably because it is a common Japanese tongue twister that it made it as a title – so lets not try to read too much into it.

I’ve seen releases by 3 different groups, and the lyrics are all slightly different.

Great show though, gives me a good laugh

Thanks to the author for the explanatory notes.

Orochi Singapore says:
The peach, in Japanese culture, represents a women’s vulva.

Japanese culture??? Is it not obvious when you look at the split side of a peach and its color?

If not for the fact that some people above me spilled the secret…I still wouldn’t get the meaning of the song…how slow I am…

Most lewd lyric I have seen in a while. And thus automatically the best lyric I have seenin a while. XD

Thank you, DM, for this translation. This OP has gotta be among the better ones this season.
