I'm looking for creative and/or strange oneshot.

Particularly good ones with genres like psychological, black comedy, historical, slice of life, horror (not Junji Itou)

This is my oneshot list: [url]http://https://www.mangaupdates.com/mylist.html?id=357994&list=user1[/url]
Please do not recommend me OS that I have read!

And I do not like pure romantic shojo-like or pure action-fantasy shonen-like.

Thank you 😛

Haikyo Shoujo fits the bill, plus the art is just amazing. I thought "The man who can see music" was the best, but they are all good and rather unique.

Thanks! I'll add that to my list 🙂

Rome Rome
Pandora's Cube
Boiling Head
Abstraction

You've read a lot of the ones I had in mind, but these are also some good ones that are creative and strange and they explore various genres. I'll post some more if they come to me. Hope you check them out.

Akumu no Elevator
Half & Half (Seo Kouji) --Just the oneshot, it's been made into a series though.
Hello Baby
Ability Shop
Kokoro Rental

here are a few that i found interesting
Peony Pavilion -this one is a collection of Chinese poems and the stories behind them.
Kyoushashou
Risou no Kareshitachi -this one is definitely interesting but it was too creepy for me
Wasure Yuki (AMANO Shinobu) -this one is really short and not too special but i liked the plot twist at the end and the art was very good.

Like educational manga? take a look at Ed U. Manga's list of manga here

hmm.. most of the titles i want to recommend have already on your list haha..

Emerald - oneshot from Sister Generator
Kumabachi no Koto
L∞P
Chouritsushi
Rikon Choutei --> one of my favorite oneshot

I remember one story about the girl who is jealous of her friend, and decide to 'steal' her beauty (in terms of eyes, hair, etc), but I forget the title lol. It's a pretty good story too.

Hey there. I've just read this one and I thought it pretty interesting.

Mebuki Kimidori

Yes, you're worthy!

Shuuseki Kairo no Himawari

Thank all of you for recommending me a lot of titles 🙂
I'll give you my feedback as soon as I finish reading them!

Time for some review 😀

"The man who can see music" is indeed amazing!!! The rest are ok for me, entertaining, thouth it's getting quite cheesy at some point. Overall, it was a good collection with very detailed art.

Rome Rome
Pandora's Cube
Boiling Head
Abstraction

Rome Rome and Pandora's Cube was quite a good and lighthearted read.
Boiling Head is short but very creative. I wonder why the rating is so low 😕
Abstraction is just weird but definitely my favorite style 🙂 Guess I am going to bookmark all the works of Kago Shintaro.

Despite the plain and somewhat unimpressed artstyle, the plot of Akumu no Elevator is really interesting. However, I find the later half of the story was kind of predictive.
For other one-shots you recommend me, I did not find them interesting at all if not cheesy. Hello Baby has some good arts thanks to Obata but the plot was meh.

I had read Peony Pavilion in the original Chinese version. Just never expect they have been released in English. So I give a try to read the English translation. And I have to say it was a poor or rather mistranslated at many parts although I sense the effort of the translation team. I guess Chinese is such a poetic language that it is hard to convey all the deep meaning into English words.

Kyoushashou is such an fun yet it was mind blowing at the end.
Risou no Kareshitachi and Wasure Yuki is like they are making parody from their fellow shojo manga. Both got no special plot nor art, but their ending save the day.

Emerald - oneshot from Sister Generator
Kumabachi no Koto
L∞P
Chouritsushi
Rikon Choutei --> one of my favorite oneshot

As expected from the author of Mugen no Juunin, Emerald is an amazing oneshot.
Kumabachi no Koto is weird yet heart-warming.
Loop is really interesting and actually far better than other famous works of Kano Yasuhiro.
Chouritsushi made me feel confused. Strangely I thought I would like this kind of weird stuff but I just can't get into it. 😕
Rikon Choutei is actually my second least favorite (the first being Chouritsushi), I really like the strange settings of the manga but the story overall did not live up to my expectation.

Mebuki Kimidori

I tried but I did not like it at all. Everything was just meh, nothing worth reviewing 😔

Shuuseki Kairo no Himawari

The whole collection is awesome. I got hooked at the very first story and could not stop reading the rest of them. Now I am getting some other works of Mihara Mitsukazu bookmarked.
