Benny's diet is very specialized, consisting mainly of the interior of Ramy nuts, nectar from the Traveller's Palm tree, some fungi and insect grubs. He is also known to raid coconut plantations, and has been seen eating lychees and mangoes, which are also plantation crops.

Strange. That's all I have to say.

Ah Japan, you and your tentacles. Yes.

Looks to me that the plot runs something like this:
Oh no. I am a giant octopus and I am on land and dry. Help me.

Oh poor Mr octopus I feel your suffering.

I will help you Mr octopus by applying this moisturizer.

Oh yes. I am saved. --- Mr Octopus has what looks to be a octopus orgasm --

Product is displayed and announcer says something like 'save those you care about from dryness with this stuff'.

FTB.

Perfectly understandable.

I think that's an athlete foot medicine

It reminds me a bit of an old "Oil of Olay" commercial here in the U.S., where an alligator stalked around the model while the announcer droned on about rough, scaly skin. I wonder which came first.

Yep. Alex is correct, that's an ad for athlete's foot medicine. The announcer clearly says "mizumushi"; Japanese for athlete's foot. Oddly, the characters for that are water + bug.
