- Emotional human drama (most with supernatural elements)
- Stories that center around impending death, near-death experience, death of self or a loved one, aftermath of one's death, grief, loss, remembrance

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.

Shinigami, literally meaning god of death （死神）, is essentially the Japanese equivalent of the Grim Reaper and is one of the many popular personifications of death. Aside from the obvious, shinigami are also associated with suicide. Here is a selection of manga that features a form of this popular mythical figure in Japanese pop culture.

- Just because it has sex and/or drugs doesn't mean it's good. I might be willing to consider rock'n'roll though.

- Characters having a bit more personality than just "designated love interest" might be revolutionary for shoujo, but I'm looking for slightly higher standard than that.

Whatever MAL marks as "shoujo" goes. Suggestions are welcomed.
