天下制覇

There's the hyena pseudo penis fun fact I've been waiting for.

Apparently the simulcast version of this episode was exceedingly censored, both visual and audio. Just a heads up, I suppose.

Impressions:

This is a minor thing to get hung up on, but the ending bit where they finally actually engaged in female (or female hyena) sexuality brought the problem with the premise to a head. If you wanted to review a whole species, you'd need more than one representative of it, and when you're reviewing 'being female' as a species, that really brings it to a head. Like, you have a hardcore sadist and a tentacle rapist matched against… I hesitated to call anything in this show normal, so let's go with manual stimulation. And it's all kind of brought down at the end by them going "Wait, he's bi? EWWWWWW. GROSS." And yet, just having characters open to exploring being tentacle raped to experience the other side still might make this one of the more open-minded shows in Japanese media lately, and isn't that a scary thought?

They could've done so much more with gender swapping the cast though, so it still feels pretty disappointing. I can't help but think to Futurama's Neutopia episode, which mocked all the random differences between the sexes and the conceptions they have about each other. We could've done that instead of having a terminology lesson in the middle, or rehashed the "elves are actually super old" joke for the fourth and fifth times and still had plenty of time for all the censored cheesecake shots and moaning at the end.
