Animepahe.ru is an anime site that runs three sites in total (animepahe.ru, animepahe.org and animepahe.com).
ALTERNATIVES
Similar sites to animepahe.ru include twitch.tv, hoyolab.com, op.gg, game8.co, epicgames.com, steamcommunity.com, fitgirl-repacks.site, asuratoon.com, prydwen.gg, and nexusmods.com.
DESCRIPTION
My first impression of the homepage was that the site wasn’t going to have much content given that it showed 12 anime video thumbnails. However, when I clicked the arrows, it revealed over 400 pages (400 x 12). The top of the homepage was labeled as “latest releases” so they may have wanted to showcase only the latest releases by limiting the total number of anime thumbnails on the front page. I clicked on an anime thumbnail (Giji Harem – 4). The video player said, “Click to load.” I had to click again to play the video. The anime played reliably in a very good quality video player that had the watermark “Kwik” in the corner. All menus worked. I could select the episodes, and subtitles, and download the videos. The work put into the development seemed limited but the video quality seemed high.
HISTORY
As of June 2024, animepahe.ru has 21.83 million monthly views. animepahe.ru was founded on February 1, 2020. The Internet Archive has saved animepahe.ru 787 times between February 1, 2020 and July 19, 2024.
Is animepahe.ru Safe?
Here, I analyzed animepahe.ru for malware and malicious content to check if it was legit or a scam:
I checked animepahe.ru on Sucuri, and it returned as a medium security risk.
Sucuri says the animepahe.ru scan failed due to a 403 Forbidden error on http://animepahe.ru/.
I then ran a parasite scan with Unmask Parasites on animepahe.ru, and it is clean.
I also checked animepahe.ru on VirusTotal, and it is flagged as malicious by CyRadar; for phishing by Fortinet and as suspicious by alphaMountain.ai.
Further, animepahe.ru is blocked by Fortinet on URLVoid.
No, animepahe.ru is not safe. I graded animepahe.ru as suspicious because it has been flagged at least once for being malicious and for phishing. It’s also flagged as suspicious by a vendor and is blocked by another. The fact that it is blocking the Sucuri scan with a 403 Forbidden solidifies this grade. OVERALL GRADE: Suspicious.
