Okay, there's a thread for yuri, a thread for BL, and many threads for manga recommendations, but there's no thread for One-shot mangas yet, so here it goes.

I'll be happy if you'd all share any good one-shot mangas here :3
They're a great way to relieve stress and pass time

For starters, Baku to Nemurihime
Meet the grumpy princess who keeps having nightmares nonstop everyday. One day, the king can't stand it anymore and called for a dream-eater..
Short summary, I know. Can't give too much spoiler since it's short

I know one it's called kimi to watashi no Renai soudan it is made and illustrated by Saeki Shun the artist of Shokugeki no soma

Thankies~ Gonna read it sometime soon.
Here's your present :p

Seishun Kouryakuhon

Sora no yousei
Keina have always been interested in Fairies, the winged people with golden hair and eyes that travel the world on a floating island.

CUTE METER OVERLOADED XD

Thanks gonna read it right now I'll try and find another one-shot manga for you too Neko

Oh yeah Neko when you suggest for me to read a one-shot next time can you make it a romance manga? If you can't it's fine but I would totally thank you if you would!

aye aye sir~ >w<

One romance manga served and ready~

LLLL (yes, that's the title)
In a city where the children of darkness dwell in the shadows, waiting to take the souls of humans foolish enough to brave the dark, an encounter between a young lantern maker apprentice and a spirit of darkness took place. Will they be able to coexist as the girl wished, or will he claim the girl's soul for himself?

summary came up slightly different from the story ~~ oh well, read and find out

Thanks a lot!!! Neko!!!

This is a one-shot I like,It's kinda funny and it has a weird couple I guess,oh yeah it's called Brand New School Day,Yeah that's the name of it. I hope you like it!

Hatsukoi Canvas
Follow the story of an arts club consisting of a guy with a seemingly really slow progress in romance, an airhead girl with extra serving of dense, a former yankee, a problem child, and the teacher who are having troubles being happy since his wife died

Read that,was a great manga!

I read that one too,it was a really sweet manga

Mmmmm then this one

Shinyuu no Mikami-kun
Youko is an introvert, and her only friend is Mikami-kun who seemed to find her interesting. But when she thought they were friends, he got jealous when she spoke to other guys

Pic

That looks co cute!! I'll try reading it immediately!!!

Oh yeah,there's this other one-shot that I like,It's called Konjaku Overload, and I thinks it's really cute!!! Sorry there's no picture,for some reason it doesn't work!

Konjaku Overload

One-shot about a quiet young man minding the family clock shop,and his friend from elementary school,a girl with"idiot strength". She seeks him out for the first time in years,asking "Fix my watch!"

Despair Trigger
The sister lost her memories. The brother are forced to endure something no one should endure. The tragedy repeats again and again like a broken record. Will there ever be a salvation for this siblings?
Warining: It's really dark. Don't blame me if you're traumatized.

Read that already. Warning: Extremely sad,very dark. But I like it. P.S funny thing is that I don't like Horrer mangas. Weird huh?

>>21 Dark? How dark are we talking here? What effect did it have on you? I love deep shit. Is this deep? Is the story well written?

>>23
PTSD dark. Makes you wonder if salvation is merely a pipe dream after all.
Gotta guve it to the author, AMAZING plot twist. I did not see that coming -_-
Oh well, it's only 1 chapter so go try it.

Cerberus Jam
Should you stumble an open door, would you walk away, peek inside, or just charge straight in? Do be careful with your choice, because who knows, a whole other world with a completely different set of laws might just be beyond an opened door.

Thanks~ I'll read it right now. And Neko,what genres of manga do you like? Oh and I'll try to find a manga for you too if I can!

>>24 Wow. Pretty good for a psychological one-shot. It would have been fairly interesting if the writer made a proper series for this. It was too short for me to feel the shock and perhaps the fact that it was only one chapter long caused me to read quickly to find out what happens next and therefore making me less engaged in many other aspects of the manga other than the story. Still, very good. I expect to see more good manga recommendations from you, Neko, although yaoi is one thing I will never dare touch.

>>26
Fantasy with a little twist of mystery ;)

>>27
I know, right? I wish it can be 5-6 chapters long, just enough to make a movie out of it
How bout I tempt you with a little yuri then? Eheheh.


The Witches of the Forest of Solitude
Deep inside a snowy forest, where time itself is frozen. A desolate space, paradise of the forsaken. Here you are trapped inside a lonely, scary, eternal winter. I am but a mere coward. But in your eyes, I see the eternity that I long for.
Classic fairytale romance XD

>>28 Ah thanks lol! To be honest all I can think of when I see that cover art is 'Frozen'. With your interesting description, this looks like it will warm up my heart quite a bit.

>>29
Wouldn't be sure just yet. Eheheh. It's romance, but the ending is really melancholic. Can be either tragic or happy depending on how you look at it. Now then.

Wasureyuki
The things that you never realize until you're about to lose it. Will they stay in our hearts or will they be forgotten like old memories? It was winter, I was 15, and I hated you. But to hate is to love, and the other side of spite is affection. Now I can say this. Even if we separate, I'm wishing for your happiness,

Somehow I always feel like giving narrations instead of summary for one-shots, but meh whatever XD

I read that,I think it was really sad...Yeah I know,i'm a really weird person aren't I? Sorry if i bothered you...

I'm a idiot,sorry...I probably won't reply to this thread anymore...maybe...Sorry...

Is this apologizing day?

>>31
It ok, not really uncommon for people to disappear all of a sudden.

>>32
The beauty of manga is that the author doesn't dictate how you interpret the story. Boast your own interpretation with your head held high, pal.

Thanks! Neko. Your a really big help! :)

Magi no Okurimono
'Akari. Akari. Akari. Even though you left before me, I will never forget you.'
A man unable to part with her, who is now a memory of the past. A woman, who watches him far above the clouds, desperate to make him forget about her. Words of love are a blessing, but when they are repeated over and over again, they are merely a curse chaining one's freedom. Will she success in making him forget? Or will he continue to bear the curse of his own making until the end of time?

Thanks Neko! I'll be sure to read it!

Neko!!! I cried! Thanks Neko,I love this story! I hope you can give me more manga to read! It was really sweet!

cute... just so cute

Yoru o Tomenaide
Mature one-shot. Off limits to under 18. You won't be able to understand it before you reach that mental age anyway, so stay away, kids!
It's about a one-night-fling between 2 strangers (see? Mature). It reminds you that at some point in your life, when you just about had it, any random thing can happen and maybe, just maybe, it becomes a badly needed moment of respite.

Read that! I think it was ok. But..! It was kinda cute! Just wait, Neko! I'll find a one-shot soon enough!

Hey is yuri manga ok? Nevermind no point asking that question
Here it is:

The cutest girl in the world
It doesn't have a summary,so just read it.

Phantom Mansion
A horror manga. Slightly disturbing. Viewer discretion advised.

Ok,does it have any romance at all? Cause I can't really do anything horrer,except if it's sweet so...

Risou no Kareshitachi

>>43
Nope. Nothing remotely sweet about it

>>45 Ok,then well I guess I won't read that then...and thanks >>43 I'll see if I read that soon.

Vahlia no Hanamuko
I don't usually post romance cause one-shot romance is just oh so cliche, but this one passed with flying colours <3
Interesting background settings, nice art and a good romance. What more can you ask for?

Yo! Sorry I haven't been online lately,and I love the romance mangas! Neko your the goddess/god of manga to me! :D

Ah well, I'm a goddess and I know it. XD

Dare Mo Shiranai Heya
Now this is my type of romance. No sappy 'I love you', no cheesy heroines and ambiguous ending, The title's a bit misleading though.
A girl claiming to have amnesia showed up in front of the doors of a dying man. She asked him to allow her to stay, and planned to capture his heart and then kill him in the name of vengeance. However, in a game of love, no kind of defense works and alll parties involved are equally susceptible. Will she be able to carry out her vendetta to the end?

bump

Read that,Just finished it. I found it cute,but at the end,was the girl a doll? Or was he hallucinating? Or if it's some other reason entirely,I'm sorry,but I kinda don't get the ending.

>>51
Why, that's part of the beauty. Leaves room for speculations


Sakuran (Iwashiro Toshiaki)
Meet Eita, a normal average friendless guy who you can find anywhere. He is currently troubled by an ALIEN. 5 years ago, it suddenly showed up out of the blue and claimed that Eita had to guess its name within 5 years, or he will be space-napped to its home planet. Now, on the 5th year and his last chance..

I Recommend 13, Shirokuro and Dandelion, all written by Hideaki Sorachi, Who's the author of Gintama. In particular Dandelion is my favourite.
