There are a lot of one-shots. There are also a lot of one-shots I haven't read. Out of the few I have; these are the ones that are worth your time so you don't have to sift most of the average junk to find the gold. It's a small list but I don't find there's many oneshots out there that really stuck with me like these have.

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 are not very long that you can read in one sitting.
Lots of short story collections, 1-8 Volume series, and oneshots. One sitting does not mean a short time mind you.

I binge read most of these in one sitting. But not all of them. However i will include ones that i think could probably be read in one sitting.

Waalex11's Recommendations of One-Shots & Short Stories.

... My personal list of critically great completed one-shots, anthologies, and short collections that are worth reading.

manga that revolve around or feature dragons as major characters or companions! they could be friends, protagonists, wild animals, hunted beasts, or love interests, but to qualify for this list they must to have a significant impact on the plot and a bearing on the actions & lives of the characters. dragon-themed characters, provided they are protagonists or main cast, will also be accepted.

(updating!!)

manga titles in which a main character is descended from some kind of supernatural creature, mythical beast, or magical family! they must have one human parent or ancestor as well as the magical side to be considered OR must have a family trait that makes them supernatural; characters that believed they were human/were raised as a human but realise later that they are a monster/magic will also be considered.

(updating!!)

titles in which a dragon is a part of a parental and child dynamic! to qualify, either the parent or their child must be a main character and a dragon. either the child or the parent can be the dragon, it does not need to be both: as long as they are recognisably a parent and child dynamic, it counts!

this stack is called 'dragon dads' but mums are accepted. i just like the alliteration better. plus, ngl? i was surprised there were even this many. i thought for sure id hit the bottom of the niche tropes barrel with this one
