Hentai is a compound of ‘hen’ and ‘tai’, which mean ‘weird’ and ‘appearance’, respectively. Hentai means ‘transformation’ or ‘abnormality’. If we’re talking about sex, it’s usually shortened from ‘hentai seiyoku’, ‘abnormal sexual want’, or to put it bluntly, perversion.
Well, it kinda, sorta does.
