Horror manga create an atmosphere of unease. Like Mystery manga, they encourage viewers to learn more about their world... but there may be secrets that are better left unexplored. Through eerie music and sounds, visceral or disturbing imagery, or startling moments, works of Horror make you worry about what gruesome thing is coming next.

This subgenre of horror intentionally focuses on grotesque or psychologically disturbing violations of the body. From disease to dismemberment the core of it is what can happen to the human body. It is not unusual for this to also include sexual, alien infestation, strange movements, transformations, and utter destruction of the human body, However I will try to save some of those manga for Ero-Guro

A list of manga with the most realistic artwork I can think of. Some titles have their own style added into the manga, this is totally fine - so cartoonish features and anatomically incorrect proportions are fine - so long as backgrounds or character art is high quality and reminiscent of realistic imagery/CGI then its eligible for this list.

- Weebookey

seinen manga that features serious themes and is not afraid to use things that make the reader uncomfortable

- No stuff thats horror only because of gore or shock factor(So sorry to say but no devilman and TG)
- If Series has more than 1 entry Whether spinoff or sequel, I'll just list the first entry that has horror
- I will not be listing the junji ito one shot collection stories cause holy shit theres wayyyy too many of them and can prob be its own list
- Related to first point, No manga that revovles around Zombies/vampire(So no HoTD and Gakkou Gurashi)

Stories that evoke strong emotions and convey one/multiple "moral of the story".

Range from light-hearted cheerful slice-of-life to dark psychological tragedy.

Some are highly philosophical and can shift your perception of life, happiness, morality, humanity, etc.

For all my bitches and bros and non-binary hoes. 🏳️‍⚧️

Focus here is on manga where either a main character is trans or a significant story arc focuses on trans characters and issues of trans identity. Otoko no ko and crossdressing series will be ignored unless there are explicit trans messaging in there. Likewise, gender-bending series that approach sex change on supernatural terms (Boku Girl) or through sci-fi mechanics (11-nin iru!) will likely be ignored unless there's some sort of grounding element that makes queer identity explicit. Finally, any series that's just like, blatantly transphobic (F. Compo) will be ignored. Some wording will be vague to avoid spoilers.
