    Beheneko: The Elf-Girl's Cat Is Secretly an S-Ranked Monster!
    (S-Rank Monster no "Behemoth" dakedo, Neko to Machigawarete Elf Musume no Pet toshite Kurashitemasu) is a vast disappointment veiled in men's beloved gratuitous fan service.
    There is plenty of boobs & butt for the medieval world this fantasy series takes place in. But the nefarious elements of identity politics is blatant for all to see. One of the male characters in this series is conservatively gay (dresses & behaves like an ordinary straight man). He is involved with the flamboyant muscle twink that is "the Guildmaster" or he owns the tavern in which the MC stays. I don't know which status is the "guildmaster's," as once the conservative gay male character declared his sexuality, I quit watching the show.
    Note to the creators: Keep the gay in the Boy-boy Love section where it belongs.

    Live and let live, but don't try to underhandedly invade my entertainment. I don't care how awesome he is, I don't care how great his powers are, I don't care how integral he is to the progression of the story - in fact, the more prominent the gay guy is, the worst it is for the overall story - I do not live that lifestyle, and will not explain it to anyone younger as normal, and will not consume such underhanded infiltration by viewing.
    Let women watch it; they'll probably love it.

    Forced homosexuality in entertainment is a rotten potato that spoils the curry stew.

    Amazing how the only other reviewer was so averse to a gay couple merely existing as side characters in a fantasy world, but not all the main characters wanting to have sex with the cat. There are literally no identity politics discussed, with the closest thing being one of the aforementioned gay characters mentioning that he became an adventurer rather than leading his titled house because he would not be able to continue the family line. And it's not presented as any sort of oppression, just matter-of-fact-ly. There is no hint of fanservice dedicated to that couple either.

    Thoroughly enjoyable, built for fanservice through and through and unabashedly owns it. This counts a lot for me since the fanservice can't 'get in the way' when it's the point. The last two episodes though had a severe drop in quality that soured the end a bit, with the final large-scale battle having literal copy-pasted static images wiggling about for the armies and a lot of directly reused small scenes.

    A real surprise that I picked out at random, Beheneko is a playful take on the JRPG-inspired adventure genre, spiced up with some light erotica.

    Also, my previous reviewer DallasBob is a dumbass, lmao. Go watch sportsball or whatever naffers watch.
