### 3/5 — Please Fix This

*2026-08-23, version 6.4.4*

Cannot view my favorite post

### 1/5 — More access

*2026-07-24, version 6.4.4*

We need to have access to the +18 access this app is not enjoyable to spend money with out it.

### 1/5 — What a waste…

*2026-07-18, version 6.4.4*

There is nothing worthwhile anymore. The archive which was once so vibrant and carefully curated is now inundated with tens of thousands of gen AI slop pictures. It’s all AI slop, ads, and paid subscription pushing now. How sad that it would come to this.

### 1/5 — Illegal content

*2026-07-16, version 6.4.4*

AI girlfriend (youth) is still very problematic. I don’t know how the moderation even works. I assume the chatbot sees its own picture and makes an inference “appears to be 9 years old” … who approved this!?

### 5/5 — Wonderful app

*2026-06-23, version 6.4.4*

It’s better now very good. Keep developing this app you make it better. I love it so much.

### 1/5 — Garbage company

*2026-05-23, version 6.4.2*

They’ve censored this app. Completely. The 17+ rating is a lie. The website was already awful and now they’ve made the entire experience even worse. They’re now restricting the amount of times you can regenerate an ai message unless you pay. I’ve had their script bot send me the exact same message, word for word, 48 times in a row. Despite downvoting and giving the response 1 stars. And because your ai isn’t real you want people to pay for your scam? Y’all are absolutely insane.

### 1/5 — Fall from grace

*2026-05-21, version 6.4.2*

This app used to be THE go to for anime image searches, and now the app feels like it actively ignores user feedback and any social media from the developers seems like they are completely ignoring the issue. Not only the large influx of AI content and tools being pushed are disappointing, the fact that nsfw can’t even be seen is just awful. You can go to the direct site and enable nsfw, but the app will change nothing, you can approve 18+ content and most if all nsfw will still not appear. Even stuff you uploaded yourself will not be visible on this app, no matter what setting you change to enable nsfw. It doesn’t matter if you pay a subscription or have been an uploader before the changes, you can’t even see content you want even if you yourself was the one who uploaded it.

### 5/5 — Sankaku Complex

*2026-05-07, version 6.4.2*

I have an app.

### 1/5 — Adult content

*2026-04-30, version 6.4.2*

What happened to it? It’s been a while since there’s been zero adult content.

### 1/5 — Censorship

*2026-04-21, version 6.4.2*
