#1. About SankakuComplex
Sankaku Complex is a hugely popular blog dedicated to anime, manga, video games, and various related content that gets over 30 million visits each month. Its popularity isn’t new either because the whole idea behind the site was shoved from dreams to reality in 2008; that’s more than a decade ago.
#2. First Impressions
It’s been a while since we’ve seen an interesting pop-up for “explicit content” and perhaps no one does it better than SankakuComplex. At first, you aren’t even sure if the site is undergoing technical issues or it’s by design. Like all modern newspapers or adult blogs, SankakuComplex utilizes a layout with featured imagery. However, those images are often animated, which is incredible. Yet, that’s not the main praise, still. Most of them do look blurry, like you’ve seen in the Asian porn movies. Only when SankakuComplex visitors click on an article does a pop-up appear, telling you all about the NSFW imagery that is about to be revealed. It’s corky, interesting, and innovative.
Unfortunately, those innovations end here when you try to read more than just the recent posts. The “view more” button is useless, leading you to a few more posts, but that’s it. There are no category links at the top or anything else. To move past the “second” page, SankakuComplex swings hard with the AJAX lazy load and yes, that’s annoying. There’s no quick way to jump into any page. Instead, visitors will have to scroll to the last article and wait until more posts load. If wouldn’t be as bad if those articles appeared in hundreds per load, but it’s as far from reality as virgin nuns. Try it yourself. I can almost assure you that this SankakuComplex behavior will drive you nuts. At least, that was the case for everyone at the PrimePornList office, and by that, I mean my cat and myself.
#3. Content & User Experience
SankakuComplex posts are split broadly into Anime, Manga, Games, and Japanese, and they aren't all sex-related but offer lots of variety, nonetheless. For instance, you can check out articles about new game trailers, VR gear, hot cosplay models, action figures, and news from various events, as well as posts with high-quality GIFs and whole galleries with mostly nude and erotic content, besides some hardcore material here and there. Each post has a nice thumbnail (sometimes animated) and lists the date of publishing, the number of comments it has, and if it's more of a gallery post, it includes at least a few well-written sentences.
Overall, this site looks slick and works well on mobile devices even though it has a few animated banners that might be distracting. We like that the content is categorized, but more specific niches would be a welcome addition for anyone that wants to see big tits, monster porn, half-naked cosplay models, etc., or to list x-rated or adult material. Right now, there's no tag list on the site, despite tagged posts, so you can either do a basic search or click on one of the tags to find more similar content. While the SankakuComple has a forum, registrations are closed now, but it could be more active and easier to navigate. Luckily, the comment section is usually busy, and anyone can leave a message.
#4. Conclusion
If you're interested in anime, manga, cosplay, video games, or Japan, chances are you will like SankakuComplex.com. This site publishes multiple blog posts per day and offers plenty of suggestive photos, GIFs, and videos. Sadly, some things are behind a paywall, and that's when we go with something else.
