Aren't Gibbering Mouthers tentacled?
What sources are you wanting? Restricted to just the Pathfinder Bestiary?
What do you got so far so as not to bear repeating, or are your victims ... er players ... read these forums?
From the Bestiary alone, you have:
Chuul
Froghemoth
Medusa
Mimic
Ochre Jelly
Otyugh
Roper
Shambling Mound
Shoggoth (duh!)
Vargouille
Violet Fungus
Yellow Musk Creeper / Zombie
Any of these creatures have a direction you're shooting for in your anime inspired game? I have a bunch of books sitting around here to pull from.
There's also the Dharculus, the Deepspawn, the Displacer Beast, Dolgaunts, other Daelkyr, the Mind Flayer, the Aboleth and the Neolithid.
Maybe David should be propping open BESM for ideas?
Pseudonatural creatures and Devastation beetles! :D

One thing I have to warn you is that anime freaks are very likely going to be expecting more out of the melee classes, at least if their anything like the anime freaks I know.
Just be prepared to be asked why they can't do X and how to do Y and be ready to do somehomebrew is all the advice I have for you ^^
Most of the players in my group are veterans of 3.5 and Pathfinder, so they know what to expect. The only complaint I get is that I have so far disallowed ninjas because they dodn't fit with the flavor I have been going for. However, the new campaign most likely will allow them.
Maybe David should be propping open BESM for ideas?I have been trying for five or six years to get them to play BESM. They just don't want to branch out from 3.5/Pathfinder. I have even tried tempting them with Exalted to no avail.
I've played Exalted recently and I admit I wasn't a fan of the mechanics. I'm not exactly the type of guy that carries around 80d6.

when did exalted start using a D6? My copy is all D10's

That explains why I was getting my ass whupped. ;)
But on a serious note, yeah they're d10s. But to be honest, I don't think it really matters; just change the range that marks the success.
Sounds like an interesting idea!
My sick mind was reminded of this:
The absolute classic.

A few other classic D&D tentacled creatures I didn't see mentioned above (though I may have missed them):
carrion crawler
grell
mohrg
flumph!
As a slight variation, you could take the chain devil and replace its chains with tentacles.
If you are looking for naughty tentacles, then as the OOTS cartoon suggested, the black tentacles (or a variant thereof) is a good foundation, as is the entangle spell. There might also be something in the Book of Erotic Fantasy on the subject.
Then you could always introduce oozes whose acid is particularly efficacious on garments....
I would not be comfortable with a gaming group obsessed with anime requesting a tentacled monster to fight.
Not comfortable at all.
Who said they were requesting it?
Exactly, this is my own little surprise for them. Mwahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
O_o
Anyways, the Summoner's eidolon is essentially a build-a-beast workshop, and tentacles are a very cheap evolution. A grapple-centric tentacular eidolon as big as possible with Grab and Greater Grapple can be ideal.
