Nyaa is a young torrent index for anime, manga and music that shows no security detections but whose operator and reputation remain unverified.
The page presents itself as "Nyaa - Anime, Manga & Music Torrent Index" on nyaa.media, a domain registered only 98 days ago. The saved checks found a valid encrypted connection and no browser threat feed warning, and the only outbound link observed points to a code-hosting page rather than a commercial partner. Nothing in the evidence shows malware, phishing, payment fraud or a deceptive download flow, so this is not a Dangerous or High Risk site. However, the domain is very new, the operator is not disclosed on the reviewed pages, and independent web research returned no usable reputation evidence, so the site cannot be rated Safe or Low Risk.

01 · Investigation Brief
Investigation Brief
The page presents itself as "Nyaa - Anime, Manga & Music Torrent Index" on nyaa.media, a domain registered only 98 days ago. The saved checks found a valid encrypted connection and no browser threat feed warning, and the only outbound link observed points to a code-hosting page rather than a commercial partner. Nothing in the evidence shows malware, phishing, payment fraud or a deceptive download flow, so this is not a Dangerous or High Risk site. However, the domain is very new, the operator is not disclosed on the reviewed pages, and independent web research returned no usable reputation evidence, so the site cannot be rated Safe or Low Risk.
What the site is
The reviewed page identifies the site as "Nyaa - Anime, Manga & Music Torrent Index" and shows the host nyaa.media. That is a torrent metadata index for anime, manga and music content, a category that is not by itself scam, phishing or malware activity.
The only outbound link captured in the evidence points to a code-hosting page, and no affiliate, checkout or monetisation relationship was observed on the reviewed page. There is no evidence of a commercial funnel, cross-domain order path or payment collection on this target.
Technical checks versus operator risk
The technical picture is clean: the saved TLS check found a valid encrypted connection and the browser threat feed returned no threat warning. Those results mean no detections were recorded, not that the site or its operator is trustworthy.
The operator side is much thinner. The registrable domain is only 98 days old, and independent web research produced no usable reputation evidence for this host. A brand-new domain with no established track record and no verifiable operator identity is a real reason for caution, even when no malicious behaviour has been observed.
Why the score is 62
The score combines saved deterministic evidence with the grounded analysis available for this report. Coverage remains separate so missing sources cannot be mistaken for clean results.

Web research findings
Independent findings for nyaa.media, including public complaints, named review sources, registration records, and look-alike-domain evidence. A missing result is shown as unverified, never converted into a clean bill of health.
No independently sourced scam reports or credibility records were found for nyaa.media. That is common for new or low-traffic sites and does not clear the site.

Domain & infrastructure
The plumbing behind the site — who registered it, how it’s encrypted, where it’s hosted, and where it links out. A valid certificate or a calm server doesn’t mean the business is honest — scam sites pass these checks too. Use this to corroborate the verdict, not to overturn it.

First appeared in WHOIS records — 3 months old when this review was saved.
- Oct 28, 2026Saved security review — Rated Moderate Risk
The evidence in this saved scan is mixed or incomplete; the completed checks are detailed above.
nyaa.media was registered very recently when this review was saved. Freshly-registered domains are disproportionately used for scams, so a young domain whose evidence is mixed or incomplete warrants extra caution.
Contact Verification
Saved contact details can help identify the operator. Their presence supports traceability; it does not prove the business is trustworthy.
- Contact email on the site's own domain (abuse@nyaa.media).
- Phone number listed (30 93 77 121).
Domain & Encryption
Cloudflare DNS is used by legitimate and scam sites alike, so it does not identify who runs the site.
Certificate issued for nyaa.media.
A shared Cloudflare address answers for many sites, so it is not the site's own server and says nothing about who runs it.

Read from the first 20 outside domains the page loads and the shop platform it uses; the web server and platform rows are under Hosting & Technology. A payment script on the page does not prove the shop accepts that method at checkout, or that you are protected.
