bantculture.com is an international imageboard (think 4chan-style anonymous forum) that launched in October 2023.
It's primarily a hangout spot for fans of:
Touhou Project (the bullet-hell shoot 'em up series with lots of cute girls, danmaku, and fan content)
Other otaku/anime franchises like Dragon Ball, Umineko no Naku Koro ni, and similar stuff
The main board is called /bant/ ("International Random"), where people post pretty much anything — images, memes, threads about the franchises, random shitposting, video game screenshots, arguments, flags of characters, etc. — as long as it follows two basic rules:
Obey US law (including age 18+ requirement)
Don't disrupt the "funtimes" (vague "don't be a massive asshole" type rule)
The site's tone is very self-aware, ironic, and chaotic in that classic imageboard way. It literally tells people to "lurk 0 seconds before posting" and to drag all their friends in because "if this site doesn't take off we go down like total bitches and it's cucked." It's got that desperate-yet-memey energy to grow the userbase.
By early 2026 it's doing decently for a niche imageboard:
Hundreds of thousands of total posts
