Manga that're strange, confusing, ridiculous, seem surreal, are overly silly, where the abnormal is normal, are very high paced, or may simply make you go "what?". Anything ranging from gag comedy to gore, all with various levels and types of absurdity.

Maximum of one title per author.

Every manga covered by the Mangasplaining podcast in Season 2. Episode 37 covered Moto Hagio's A Drunken Dream and Other Stories, a compilation volume of one-shots. Episode 48 covered The Blood Red Boy by Minami Q-ta.

Manga series with covers that feature recurring design and composition elements, consistent art styles, gradual changes that show intent and overall harmony of the entire collection. I'm open to suggestions, I try not to add too many “standing character” situations, but will do so if the art is striking enough.

Manga/Manhwa where there are central non-romantic relationship(s), ie friends, teacher-student, something in between etc but not family/found family, I have a different stack for that

Some of these may have romance as well but it's not between the main characters and/or it's a subplot that often doesn't result in the characters actually getting together

Not on MAL:
-Susu, Han: About a pair of estranged siblings reconnecting, and their group of friends. Good comedy and drama.
-The Competition: About a violin competition, has friendships and sibling relationships. Good drama.
-The Wolf and Little Red Riding Hood: A group of outcasts become friends. Great comedy.
-Our Time: Adorable friendship between a boy who can stop time and a girl who can only be free from her coma in his stopped time.

Not on MAL:
-If I were you
