Perfect Rhyme - Kanzenin

Japanese: 完全韻 - かんぜんいん
Perfect Rhyme - Kanzenin

...A simple rhyme is one that rhymes with stressed vowels or with a vowel plus a consonant (flee-sea; voice-rejoice; wept-slept; flower-mountain: these are common in English poetry, but do not feel like rhymes in Japanese). Next, an extended simple rhyme is one that rhymes with a consonant before a vowel, that is, with one syllable. (In English poetry, a rhyme like fair-fare is called a perfect rhyme and is avoided, but in French poetry, a rhyme like modèle-fidèle is called a rich rhyme and is recognized for its aesthetic effect. In Japanese, it can only be felt when it is a perfect rhyme like Nara-sakura.)

*Some of the terminology explanations that mention "perfect rhyme" are listed below.
