Hi all, another manga challenge! This time the alphabet using the MAL categories. These are 25 (Sadly no X, again) short, complete manga falling under one of MAL's themes, genres, or demographics, and when we needed more letters, other websites such as AniList and BakaUpdates.

Hope you have fun reading!

Usual Disclaimer: We have read none of these works before, and while we haven't picked any manga purposefully with disturbing content, we can't guarantee anything, so read at your own risk.

LGBTQ+ characters in horror manga. Some are headcanons- those are indicated by question marks.
Not all are great representations. A couple are not listed as horror on MAL but I thought they were horror-adjacent.

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)


(this time there are 50 items because I consider the 2 Ichikawa anthologies as one)
Manga in this set not listed in MAL:
Lily Marble
Saiyuu Shoujo
Absurd Theory (Xiu Lun Ji)
Ame (Minori Kimura)
Ketsueki Shoujo


Next set: (TBA)
Previous Set:

More manga featuring LGBT (gay, lesbian, bisexual, binary transgender, non-binary, genderqueer, intersex, queer, pansexual, asexual, aromantic, etc.) characters in non-BL/non-GL manga. Some are headcanons- those are indicated by question marks.

More trans characters from fan-translated manga. Some of my trans labels are headcanons- those are indicated by question marks.

(My definition of a trans manga is one that has a main trans character. Them being transgender may or may not be a big impact on the story.)

Manga that prominently feature lesbian/bi/pan/queer/sapphic female characters that are NOT labelled as GL/girls love/yuri/shoujo ai on MAL.

Most of these are more about being queer rather than focusing on a specific sapphic relationship.

Not on MAL:
Mom, I'm Gay
Kanojo ga Dekinai Onna
◎ no "Sei"/Born this Way


BL version: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/70268

"Bad" or at least questionable representation on LGBT character in manga.
To clarify, I don't even personally dislike all these characters or manga, but sometimes I felt that they weren't treated well in the context of the series. I'll try to explain my reasoning.

tw: rape, grooming/pedophilia, molesting, homophobia/transphobia/biphobia/acephobia/queerphobia, etc.
