nhentai.net
Mostly blocked
12 of the 15 URLs we have a verdict for under nhentai.net are blocked in mainland China; 3 are not. The Great Firewall poisons its DNS, silently drops its packets so requests time out and resets the connection. 456 tests have been run under this domain since 2014-12-04, the most recent on 2026-07-16.
The two are filtered by different means — an unencrypted request by the address and keywords it carries in the clear, an encrypted one by the server name in its TLS handshake — so one working while the other does not is normal.

12 of the 15 URLs we have a verdict for under nhentai.net are blocked in mainland China; 3 are not.

Plain HTTP and HTTPS differ here: http://nhentai.net is blocked, https://nhentai.net is intermittent. The two are filtered by different means — an unencrypted request by the address and keywords it carries in the clear, an encrypted one by the server name in its TLS handshake — so one working while the other does not is normal.
A VPN or another circumvention tool routes the request outside mainland China, past the filtering that blocks nhentai.net. GreatFire runs GreatFire VPN; the Analyzer also tests the domains of many VPN and proxy providers, so you can check whether one is reachable before relying on it.

Each URL's status is its verdict over the last 90 days, the same one its own page headlines.
