What the numbers mean
The current tracked score of 74.9 sits just below the previous 75.3 — a slight dip, but essentially flat. Over 26 weeks the score has moved in a narrow band, from a low of 74.9 (right where it is now) to a high of 78.2. That's a stable, low-volatility profile: the site isn't climbing, but it isn't sliding either.
The strongest signal in the data is ad experience. Ad load is a verified zero and the Hentai category posts a perfect 100 for ad quietness, alongside a 92 mobile score — both observed rather than estimated, so they carry weight. The single defined category, Hentai, ranks #13 of 44 with a 68.5 score, and its browse-and-filter sub-metric (77) is the clear internal high point.
Mid-band metrics — library depth (67), freshness (64), quality (62), and player (62) — round out a competent but not exceptional profile. Popularity sits at 72. Nothing here suggests a top-tier destination, but the fundamentals are sound and consistent.
Confidence & data notes
Ad level scores 95, mobile scores 95, popularity scores 85, trust scores 85, and library scores 85.
Player scores 45, quality scores 45, freshness scores 45, and the format flags for 4K, VR and downloads score 60. Free share scores 60 and signup scores 60.
One clarification on the trust figure: at 66/100, it measures transparency and accountability signals such as policies and domain history. It is not a safety rating and should not be read as a guarantee that the site is safe to use.
