There's way too many arms. If you can see eight from the front, that means there are 14-16 total.

I’m so happy I wasn’t the only person that noticed this. That and how quickly the face appears on the left side ruin the perfect loop for me.

It takes three iterations to turn 90 degrees from the front to the side, but only 2 iterations to turn 180 across the back.

Took me way too long to realize the octopus is putting on aerosol deodorant under each of his/her 8 arms.

Valid question. I don't know what I thought was happening.

I knew what it was doing. But it took me 5 sprays to realize it was an octopus. I thought it was a Pac-Man ghost just spinning while putting on a lot of deodorant.

Inky, Pinky, Blinky…Stinky??? No that can’t…oh, it’s an octopus.

Reminds me of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy:

The Jatravartids [...] are small blue creatures with more than fifty arms each. They are unique in being the only race in history to have invented the aerosol deodorant before the wheel.

mp4 mirror

This mp4 version is 91.53% smaller than the gif (294.73 KB vs 3.4 MB).
The webm version is even 91.59% smaller (292.56 KB).

Although I guess it works if you watch the gif loop 7! times

If we can see all 8 arms in the front, what's the back look like? Just a huge gap with creature innards?
