About Luscious.net:
"We are bringing hentai to the masses with the oldest, most curated, and largest collection on the internet. Browse without a login, or upgrade to a 100% free account for the best experience." That's what the homepage of Luscious.net says. I want to point out the scandal from 2019, where email addresses of all users leaked through an unsecured database along with their activity. The good news is that because of this leak, they secured their database, so this shouldn't repeat. But to be honest, I would instead use this website without an account. You still have access to all its content, and you don't need to worry about anything.
But let's get back to their statement "largest collection on the internet". According to Google, they have over 3 million pages indexed by Google. And that's a loooot of pages. I believe they have at least one of the largest collections, if not the biggest. They have over 9m+ monthly visitors, which makes them approx 1100. most visited website in the US. The interesting thing at this site is that they have both anime and normal content. It's mostly about photos/drawings, but you can find videos and animations too.
Design and usability:
The color scheme uses shades of dark grey (you can turn off dark mode in the footer), and the layout is simple and straightforward. Under the narrow menu bar, you can see their statement almost overall browser window size. The heading says exactly what this site is about: "Free Hentai Manga and Anime Pornography" following a signup button, which is not the best idea (read the first paragraph of this review). You can then see the search bar. I kinda miss autofill here. I can't see categories etc. while typing into the search field. Under the search bar, there are 5 sections:
- Hentai Manga - all hentai manga comics at one place
- Hentai Pictures - just hentai pictures with no storyline, you can find any character you like there
- Porn Pictures - classic porn picture albums, naked girls in different categories
- Featured - don't really know which metric is used, but these are top picks
- Random - random posts from all categories
You can see the "See All" button under every section to browse all posts from that section.
There is an exciting thing that differs Luscious.net from other hentai manga sites. It's the user's blogs. Any user with an account can create their own blog and write about anything they find interesting. People write their feedback to the site itself, finding partners for sexting, telling their stories about cross-dressing, or just talking about ordinary things. This is a big plus for a place like this.
Gallery:
They have a different gallery for pictures and for manga. Let's talk about pictures first. If you open any gallery, you will see basic information about a gallery first. Like a number of images, date created, last update, categories, and so on. You can even download the whole gallery using the download button (but you need an account).
There are 3 types of gallery views, and you can switch between them using switchers above the gallery. You can choose infinite scroll so you can see all images on one page (even if they have hundreds or thousands of pictures). You can also choose to "Display inline" which means that if you click on an image, it will show up between rows, not on a separate page. But don't worry. Even if you open the image in a separate page, you can quickly move to next/prev image using arrows or the narrow bar in the footer. There is also an option to enable slideshow, which moves to the next image every 3 seconds.
But manga gallery is even better! I totally love "Read Using Scrolling" option (you can turn it on by switcher above image grid). After that, you can open one image and scroll and scroll to the end. No need of clicking or hitting arrows to move to the next image. This is really handy. Try it, you will love their manga gallery.
Content:
I already said that this site is one of the biggest (if not the biggest) in this niche. Here are some of their popular categories: 3D, Fantasy girls, Group sex, Kemonomimi, Netorare, School, Superheroes, Ecchi. And some popular tags are Big breasts, Nakadashi, Paizuri, Yuri, Double penetration, Ahegao, or Yaoi. There is nearly everything. You can also find a bit darker categories like lolicon, gore, and so on.
Mobile version:
The mobile version looks good. Everything is well-positioned, and it is easy to orientate. While reading manga, you can use "Read by scrolling" function as on desktop. But in my opinion, images are small in this view. I recommend to try starting slideshow feature, then stop it and browse images by arrows on both sides. This way, images are bigger, and you can better read the text in them.
Community:
The community is big and kind on Luscious.net. If you want to prove it yourself, visit their blog section (you can find it in the main menu, it's hidden under three dots next to the search field). You will see that there are little to no hate and lots of understanding and kindness.
Final words:
Although they lost a bit of their reputation because of the case with leaked users data, I would say that this site is a great place for all hentai, manga and doujinshi lovers. Check their blog section, try their features on manga galleries, and decide for yourself if this is your place to go. For me, this is definitely a good site, and you will have a hard time finding the hentai site that has this amount of content and community like them. Unless you visit our Best hentai sites section, where you can find only the best sites in the industry.
Advantages:
- A huge amount of content
- Big and kind community
- Handy features in galleries
- Both cartoon and normal porn
Disadvantages:
Common misspells: luscious.com, luscous.net, liscious.net
