=== Persona 5 ===
The Phan-site initially holds the anonymous poll "Do you believe in the Phantom Thieves?", and collects submissions of heist requests. Throughout the game, the poll questions change depending on certain story events, and Mementos Requests are issued from here. The first request was filed against Natsuhiko Nakanohara, who indirectly leads to Ichiryusai Madarame's exposure as a fraudster.
During the fourth heist of the game, Mishima texts the protagonist telling him the fake Medjed group had deleted then restored the site as a means of proving their power.
After this, the site is hacked once again by the same group. Instead they use it and rig the Phantom Thieves' popularity to catch them off guard so they can frame them for Kunikazu Okumura and Kobayakawa's murder. (Although both murders were dealt by Goro Akechi.) The approval rate suddenly increases by double (And quickly spurts to around 93%) because of this, and Phantom Thieves merch can be seen being sold all over Tokyo. Right after Okumura's death, the poll will drop 30% daily due to the Phantom Thieves being framed as murderers. It is later revealed the fake Medjed is actually an IT president allied to Shido and that was a ploy to get rid of Okumura for the scandals he caused, making sure Shido steps into premiership unopposed, and to frame the Phantom Thieves.
During the final heist, the Phan-site is used to indicate the masses' support for the Phantom Thieves during their battle against the final boss.
The percentage of people agreeing on the poll depends on the Phantom Thieves' popularity and recognition by the public. At first when Mishima makes the site, the poll starts with around slightly less than 1%, steadily increasing to 30% at the subsequent three heists. After the Futaba heist, it will increase twofold, to close to 60% and when the fake Medjed tries to rig the poll in order to use Okumura to frame the Thieves, the percentage of people agreeing goes to over 80%. Just before Okumura dies the percentage of people agreeing will go over 90%, only to drop drastically in the following days after his death. During both of these instances, the changes only take effect after Igor finishes addressing the protagonist. By the time of Sae's heist the support percentage will go under 1% again and will stay there until the Thieves disappear from the people's cognition after exploring Mementos Depths at December 24, dropping it right into 0%. However, in the final battle after the protagonist awakens Satanael and the masses begin to cheer on the Phantom Thieves against Yaldabaoth, the percentage of people agreeing will bounce to 100% and will drop after the battle. Near the end of the game, the percentage of people agreeing to the Phan-site will stay around 45%.
====Persona 5 Royal====
During the third semester (Jan 1 to Feb 3), Mishima will change the poll to ask people if they would join the Phantom Thieves. The poll will fluctuate around 10 - 15% with playfully dismissive comments. This poll will be reverted into the previous endgame poll after Maruki is defeated.
Since Maruki manually changes the hearts of individual people at once until February 3rd (and thus does not have the ability to reach everyone immediately), Mementos Requests continue to be issued from troubled people through the Phan-Site. 
==== Persona 5 The Animation The Day Breakers ====
Kazuya Makigami himself almost makes a request to make his other gang members disappear, but ultimately decides not to send it. Naoya Makigami makes a request for help to the Phantom Thief Channel that his brother Kazuya is physically abusing him.
==Comments==
Comments left in the anonymous poll range from supportive, comical, curious, trolling, insulting, to threats against the site and its users. Comments are sorted by this.
In Royal, more comments have been added and some are worded differently.

==Trivia==
* If one pays attention, the approval rate of the Phantom Thieves increases to abnormal heights right after Igor praises and warns the protagonist before the Okumura heist (two-fold from the original rating instantly after he finishes talking). On a similar tangent, the same poll drops by 30% constantly right after his speech concerning the end of Okumura's heist where he was killed, with negative comments flowing in the next day. (The approval rate drop does not occur during the night where Okumura was killed, staying at 93% and comments left celebrate Okumura's death, only dropping right after Igor's speech). This foreshadows that the Igor in the Velvet Room is fake, and is in fact setting up plans in motion.
*In Persona 5 Royal, the English text font from the original Persona 5 is used during the scene where people are cheering for the Phantom Thieves before Satanael's awakening. This is due to the scene being a pre-rendered cutscene.
*In Persona 5 The Animation The Day Breakers, The Phan-Site is referred to as "the Phantom Thief Channel," possibly in reference to Futaba Channel (2chan) and its unofficial sister site 4chan, since they are imageboard forums for specific topics, and 2chan is Japanese in origin.
