I did some Googling and found a table containing a unicode
table containing kanji here:

http://www.rikai.com/library/kanjitables/kanji_codes.unicode.shtml

Finding the characters you posted worked fine in Firefox (simple
copy-and-paste into the Quick Find box). Not a very nice method
but it works.

The unicode for those 5 characters (4 kanji, 1 hiragana) seem
to be: 901a 5e38 306e 4f4d 7f6e

Sorry, don't know about vim. I use anthy in various applications
(using Linux).
