Gelbooru review
Gelbooru is a tag-based image board ("booru") for anime and hentai art, with posts, comments, a forum and a wiki. On 13 November 2026 it answered our connection with "429 Too Many Requests", so we only saw the archived homepage. A Trustpilot review alleges that child-sexualising content is not filtered. We could not verify that, and we do not rate or recommend it.
Not rated: The live site returned 429 Too Many Requests on 2026-11-13, so content and moderation could not be checked; a Trustpilot review (2023) alleges child-sexualising content is not filtered. We do not score or recommend it.
Gelbooru (gelbooru.com) is an image board for anime and hentai art, built on the "booru" model: users upload images and tag them, and you search by tags. The archived homepage from 12 November 2026 shows the logo, links to Browse All Posts, Comments, Forum, Wiki and My Account, a tag search box and "Original concept by Danbooru".
What we could check on Gelbooru
Very little. When we visited on 13 November 2026 the live site answered with "429 Too Many Requests", from the browser and on retry. The archive copy only shows the search page, not posts or rules. We therefore cannot describe its catalogue, its upload rules or how it moderates.
Why we do not rate Gelbooru
Gelbooru has 3.3 out of 5 on Trustpilot from just four reviews. Two fans call it part of their daily routine, one complains that accounts and posts cannot be deleted, and one 2023 review alleges that child-sexualising content is not filtered. We could not verify that claim, but on a user-upload anime board it is serious enough that we will not rate or recommend the site without checking.
For adult anime with original adult characters, see HentaiedPRO, CreateHentai or developers on Itch.io NSFW. More in hentai and anime porn.
Anabel054’s take
I cannot review what I cannot see, and I will not point readers at a user-upload anime board after a report like that without checking it. For adult anime art, I prefer creators and studios with original adult characters.

Trustpilot 3.3/5Trustpilot: 3.3/5 from only 4 reviews (2023-2025). Two 5-star reviews call it an everyday favourite; a 2025 review complains that accounts and posts cannot be deleted; a 2023 review alleges that child-sexualising content is not filtered. Too few reviews to generalise, and the allegation could not be verified.
