No one said social distancing is fun, and when internet users get bored, idle hands become the devil’s workshop. So one online hentai service is pitching in amid the coronavirus pandemic with a promotion: two weeks of free anime porn.
English hentai publisher Fakku announced Sunday night that its subscription hentai service is free for the next two weeks on Fakku. No need to sign up for the site or plug in a credit card; interested readers can just hop straight into the site’s “Stay Home” promotion link and get started on “over 150,000 pages of uncensored English hentai.”
“As the world continues to practice social distancing to fight the spread of COVID-19, we must come together and stay inside,” Fakku tweeted. “STAY HOME. FAKKU IS FREE.”
Twitter users were ecstatic.
Less than 24 hours later, Fakku’s promotion proved a little too popular. As of Monday morning, the hentai site has experienced several gateway errors on its “Stay Home” promotion page. Fakku’s main page also refuses to load, instead simply showing the site’s red menu bar and white background.
The problem apparently began within an hour after the Fakku promotion went live, based on a message shared by a Fakku staff member on the site’s Discord. “The site will be going up and down as more traffic comes in,” Fakku staff member Randall wrote. “If you see the maintenance page, wait a little bit and refresh.”
Fakku’s two-week promotion is based on Fakku Unlimited, a monthly subscription that grants users full access to the site’s hentai manga and anime library. While Fakku has been in operation for well over a decade, the site began its move toward official hentai distribution in 2015, when it began removing pirated hentai material. These days, Fakku is best known as the largest official English anime porn distributor in the world.
