Is sanjianime.com legit or a scam?
An unauthorized anime streaming portal with high traffic but significant privacy concerns and mixed safety reports from security researchers.
These checks passed — but they don't clear the site. A clean antivirus result, valid SSL, and a calm server only mean it isn't hosting malware; they say nothing about whether the business is real. This verdict is based on the site's conduct and content, not a malware detection.

MT Intelligence
The site operates as a typical piracy hub, offering high-demand anime titles like One Piece and Jujutsu Kaisen without official licensing. While our antivirus network shows no active malware detections, the domain has a polarized reputation. Some security aggregators flag it as highly suspicious due to its redirect patterns and lack of transparent ownership. Furthermore, research into user feedback reveals allegations of data harvesting and the presence of intrusive advertisements. The domain is over two years old and maintains significant traffic, which suggests it is a functional site rather than a temporary phishing landing page, but the inherent risks of unauthorized streaming remain high.
