- The closest related sense I'm aware of is currently sense line 3 (which needs a little reworking): perversion, sexual deviance. The English sense of hentai as a genre of manga and anime focused on sexual themes comes directly from this sense of the Japanese term. I'm not aware of the Japanese term being used as a noun referring specifically to this genre in the same way that the English term does.

- 変態 is not “hentai” but “perversion”. The manga category is typically referred to as エロマンガ. — TAKASUGI Shinji (talk) 22:03, 13 September 2018 (UTC)
