Some are not for the faint-hearted.

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.

Manga that will break you. Sad comics with terrible endings have their own appeal, and fans adore them.

By the way, by the word “break”, I don’t mean they’re going to beat you. It suggests they will make you exceedingly sad or heartbroken.

Short manga that pack quite a punch. All are under 8 volumes.

Nice, interesting, or otherwise worthwhile stories that you can knock out in a sitting and might not have heard of. Please consider checking out the respective authors' other work as well!

Official releases in English are listed when applicable.

These are some of the mangas suggested by the youtube channel Kito Senpai. I made the forum as I take some of my manga suggestions from this channel and they are pretty much good.

If some of the mangas are not present here, I may have either forgot to add them or were mentioned on a later date and I have not updated the list.

Yo besties, I've been having a challenge of reading short manga.
so I thought of creating interest stacks for this challenge.
Some of the manga I've listed in the challenge aren't in MAL so I will list them in the description.
Each set (currently there are 15, and it continues) has 49 entries, and the manga vary in genres and popularity.
All of the manga are 1-5 volumes long, and I would love to see other people participating in this challenge!
(All of these should be scanlated, except for a few)

Manga in this set not listed in MAL:
Shitsurakuen (Daijirou Morohoshi)
Bibliomania
Tetsu to Ken
Mission-chan no Daiboku

Manga that I feel like deserve more love and discussion.

Series that cause what I call "Twisted euphoria"

Series that make me ecstatic to be alive, grinning from ear to ear or laughing like a maniac, despite (or rather, because of) how f***ed up parts of them are, in conjunction with how not-f***ed-up other parts of them are.

Cute girls killing people with a smile,
magical girls committing sudoku,
beautiful worlds full of haunting ghosts,
a shounen-style tournament full of huge perverts, etc.

As an example of what I mean, Doki Doki Literature Club had me smiling from ear to ear the whole way through. Even moreso in the second half than the first.
Fujimi Lovers is a perfect example in terms of manga.
The Mesmerizer Miku song is another good example.
Also, if you've ever watched Murder Drones or The Amazing Digital Circus...
The "Twisted Euphoria" feeling I'm talking about is pretty similar to how Baio Rin from 100 Girlfriends reacts to violence.

The ones closer to the top of the list are generally more likely to cause this feeling, and the ones at the very bottom (Saya no Uta and below) are the manga/novel versions of other media that would be on the list, instead, if it was allowed.

The series on the list are based on my subjective experience, so some other series that could cause the feeling might not be on here, like Madoka, Made in Abyss, or some others.

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.
