Series featuring zombies as a major concept, such as characters surviving in a zombie apocalypse or series where a character is a zombie themselves. Almost everything in this list is fully/actively translated in English by licensors or fans.

Manga and novels that I love.

Part II (in progress): myanimelist.net/stacks/55838

One-shots are mostly romance and "feel-good" stories.

One-shots that are pretty good but not in MAL database:

1) Mienai hito-tachi and other one-shots by Nagabe, author of Girl from the Other Side (Daisy, Shiro no Ou-Sama etc)
2) Matohazure Q-Doubu by NisioIsiN
3) Denpatou + Toumei Hakubutsuka (one-shots by Yamazaki Kore, author of Magus Bride)
4) Gustave
5) 1LDK Blues
6) Nine Lives
7) Yankee Joshi wa Otaku (Fujoshi) ni Naritai!
8) The story of a cat that has lived for 100 years
9) Sora kara Onna no Ko ga!
10) Narisumasu
11) One-shots sent to Silent Manga Audition
12) Tempest + Bakemono Recchan (and few other by Asano Inio)
13) One-shots by Takaki Tsuyoshi

Akai mi Hajiketa, Deja Vu, 22-26 and Oogiri (and few others) are collections of one-shots. You may also like Shuukan Shounen Girl.

I didn't add good one-shots connected to other series like Bleach, Gantz, Death Note, Lain etc.

Have a nice day

One-shot from all types of genre. Mostly with no cliffhangers.
I've only added the ones that I have read and found to be good enough. I'll update the list as I read more of these short stories.

P.S. this stack also includes one-shots collection.

-Manga that breaks people.
-Manga that will make you feel empty rather than making you cry.

Good luck reading them.

I haven't read a lot of One-Shots, partially because they never develop well enough in a single chapter/volume but there's some that are actually concluded nicely and that I enjoyed reading so I hope I make someone read these One-Shots as well.

uh oh! titles in which a main character is a zombie, undead, or reanimated corpse! to qualify: the scene in which the character first dies is unnecessary, but the character must be shown to have zombie features on one or more occasions. this can include, but is not exclusive to, the ability to reattach severed limbs, a lack of pain response, regeneration, rotting, or the desire to eat human flesh. the character does not have to have every zombie quality to qualify. non-human zombies, such as creatures or demi-humans, may also be considered.

(updating!!)

not on MAL:
Kimi wo Tsumugu by Kurihara Sakura
'A heartwarmingly cute yuri manga about a seamstress and a zombie girl. What if your friend became a zombie? What if you were in love with that friend? The first creative work by an author fond of both yuri and zombies.'

When Sato-kun Died... by Yamagata Aona
'He is silent, expressionless and he keeps to himself, but then he shared a smile with me. That boy is… a walking corpse! Sato-kun, who met an early demise in a traffic accident, came back to school as a Zombie. That popular guy who would light up the room, is now cold and lifeless and barely manages to trace the habits of his old life. However, Hozumi from the same class, seems to be the only exception. Zombie Sato stares at her from nearby, and why is he following her? What ever will she do? Is he still the old Sato-kun or is he…'

Jump Zombie by Han Yan (韩琰)
'A novice Shade Hunter forms an unlikely friendship with a teen zombie as they journey together, taking on the powerful Shades, dark creatures of the night determined to enslave humanity.'

I have read a lot of short stories and one–shots manga, like really a lot. What I like about it is to see how the author achieves to deliver an impactful and memorable story despite the short amount of pages. It's a difficult exercice a lot of one–shots and short manga fail in but when it's good, it becomes very enjoyable ! So here are the best works of this kind I have read so far.

Ps : Shorts stories are also good when you don't have a lot of time available or when you have a short attention span lol
