I find it funny how the lexicographer in the Dictionary Corner gives an incomplete definition: “Hentai is brilliant, yes, it’s a sub-genre of Japanese manga and anime et cetera, very well done.”

I can do one better: hentai-y, an adjective used to denote something as being similar to hentai

PHYTANE, TINTYPE, or ANTITYPE bingos all. (“Phytane??” Sure, y’know phytane is an isoprenoid alkane formed when phytol, a constituent of chlorophyll, loses its hydroxyl group - everyone knows that!")

no, that’s mixing two languages.
If you must express that nuance, it would be linguistically correct to say “hentai-poi”, staying in all Japanese. (変態ぽい).
I am not sure if I should be embarrassed for knowing this.
