DMCA & content removal
Last updated: June 2026
Content source
AnimeLust works as an index and search engine. Images and videos are NOT hosted on our servers: they are fetched in real time from public third-party APIs, mainly Rule34 (rule34.xxx) and Gelbooru, and shown by linking to their sources. We claim no ownership over that material.
Zero tolerance for minors
We actively filter tags for content involving or appearing to involve minors. Every character depicted is presented as 18 or older. If you find anything that bypasses these filters, report it immediately and we will remove it.
How to request a takedown
If you are a rights holder (or their agent) and want us to stop indexing a work, send a notice including: (1) identification of the work, (2) the exact URL(s) on AnimeLust, (3) your contact details, (4) a good-faith statement and (5) your physical or electronic signature.
Contact
Send your notice to:
dmca@animelust.com
We process valid notices within a reasonable time (usually 48–72h). Since the content comes from third parties, we also recommend contacting the original source (Rule34 / Gelbooru) for permanent removal.
