I think this anime is a keeper, I give it a 8/10, if it didn't have the cross dressing guy's in it I would happily give it a 10/10
A guy get's reincarnated into the form of a cute little cat that can grow up into a Behemoth, and keep's meeting girl's that want to have babies with him lol.
He maybe the Elf girl's pet by choice, and call her his master, but he stay's by her side to protect her whenever she get's into things that are to deep for her.
From wikipedia I'm a Behemoth, an S-Ranked Monster, but Mistaken for a Cat, I Live as an Elf Girl's Pet, also known simply as Beheneko, is a Japanese light novel series written by Nozomi Ginyoku and illustrated by Mitsuki Yano.

As an ecchi anime fan, Beheneko caught my eye when it was announced. The promise of charming girls paired with a medieval epic infused with J. R. R. Tolkien-esque flair had me hooked from the start. I pictured a world of grand battles, deep lore, and playful fan service-everything I crave in a series like this.
When 2025 rolled in, Beheneko arrived, and I was ready to dive in. Is it bad? Not quite. Is it good? I wouldn't say that either. It's like rooting for a sports team tipped to win the championship, only to see them fizzle out in the playoffs. The potential was there-Aria's quest, Tama's mysterious power, a kingdom teetering on ruin-but it never ignited. The narrative stumbled, feeling flat and uninspired. By episode 5, I could've walked away without a second thought.
The characters intrigued me at first. Aria's determination and the quirky harem had charm, while the world hinted at a rich history of ancient relics and shadowy foes. Yet, the storytelling failed to capitalize on this foundation. It dragged, lacking the excitement to pull me in, leaving epic battles-like the demon lord clash in the finale-as rare bursts in a sea of mediocrity.
The fan service? Average at best. There were moments-Tama's transformations, a few playful scenes-but nothing memorable or applause-worthy. For an ecchi fan, it barely scratched the itch.
It pains me to say Beheneko is an anime that "could have been." It's not terrible, but it fades into the attic of forgettable series, lost among countless others that never rose above the crowd. The finale was decent, yet it couldn't salvage the unfulfilled promise.

We got reincearnated as a spider , as a dog, as a mop , as a slime , as a dragon , as a vending machine , a sword and now a cat . . .
This anime was alike dog reincarnation one and im sorry , all characters had their souls sucked out of them . The writer did not bother give characteristic ideas to any character . Why would they ?
If all characters had own interest and backstory they may not want a cat for romantic interest maybe?
Was not a great watch . I had even found myself checking time to how much of the episode left remaining.
I only watched frist 6 episodes of frist season but i think that is enough.
This is more watchable than reincarnated as a dog . Does some things right . Still---another junk added to isekai garbage mountain.
