Is sukebei.nyaa.si legit or a scam?
Official Nyaa adult torrent index with 9-year history, but users report malware risks in non-trusted uploads and fake clone sites pose impersonation threats.
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.
Analysis Summary
MT Intelligence
Sukebei.nyaa.si is a legitimate, long-established torrent index for adult anime content (hentai, doujinshi, JAV) and is the official successor to the original Nyaa.se adult section after its 2017 shutdown. The domain is 9 years old, uses valid SSL, and has open-source code published on GitHub. However, our antivirus network flagged it as suspicious (Gridinsoft: 35/100 trust score), and user discussions across multiple forums highlight a consistent concern: malware embedded in user-uploaded torrents, particularly from non-trusted uploaders. The site itself does not distribute malware, but the torrent ecosystem it hosts carries standard piracy risks. Independent review sites are split—one rates it "Very Likely Safe" despite low traffic rank, while another flags it as suspicious. Warnings in the evidence focus on fake clone sites (e.g., nyaa.eu) rather than the official sukebei.nyaa.si itself.

- sukebei.nyaa.si is the official non-work-safe (adult/hentai/JAV/doujinshi) torrent section of the well-known nyaa.si anime torrent index, established as replacement after original Nyaa.se shutdown in 2017.
- Site has active rules prohibiting extreme content, troll torrents; uses dedicated tracker; codebase open-source on GitHub (nyaadevs/nyaa).
- Scamadviser rates it "Very Likely Safe" / legit for consumers despite low Tranco rank, iframe use, and "mainly negative reviews"; positive factors include long domain age, valid SSL, future expiry.
- Gridinsoft flags as Suspicious Website (35/100 trust score) with 1 blacklist detection, adult/file-sharing category, and recommends avoiding downloads/sign-ins.
- User discussions (Reddit, F95zone) focus on torrent safety: prefer "green"/trusted uploaders, scan files (especially .exe or non-zipped), common piracy risks but no site-wide malware confirmed.
- Page for user "aliceholic13" shows uploads of adult/cosplay/fantia-related video content; no specific scam or malware reports tied to this uploader.
- Fake/clone warnings apply only to other domains (e.g. nyaa.eu promotes malware; proxies/mirrors may be risky).

Our research found conflicting signals. Gridinsoft rates sukebei.nyaa.si as suspicious (35/100 trust score) with one blacklist detection and recommends avoiding downloads and sign-ins. Independent review aggregators are split: one rates it "Very Likely Safe" for consumers, citing long domain age and valid SSL; another reports "mainly negative reviews." User discussions on F95zone and ULMF forums focus on malware risks in non-trusted torrent uploads rather than site-wide compromise. The evidence confirms sukebei.nyaa.si is the official adult-content section of the Nyaa anime torrent index, established in 2017 as a successor to the original Nyaa.se. Warnings about fake clones (nyaa.eu, proxies) are distinct threats. No specific scam or malware reports are tied to the official sukebei.nyaa.si domain itself, but the torrent ecosystem it hosts carries standard piracy risks: users are advised to verify uploader reputation and scan downloads.
