Oh, BTW. Nisekoi is not by Seo Kouji, but there is another Half & Half, so I thought I would make sure you knew which one I was referring to... :)

@AkuDaiki - A One-Shot is basically a single chapter stand alone story. Most manga begin as one-shots that are then picked up for serialization and expanded on. For some really excellent examples see Mysterious Girlfriend X Chapter 1, which was originally published as a one-shot in 2004 and wasn't picked up for serialization until 2004. The one-shot tells a complete story, about how the two became boyfriend/girlfriend, but leaves a ton left to be developed.

Two other good examples, of a different kind, are Nisekoi and Half & Half (by Seo Kouji) They both had one-shots that were actually complete stories, then were picked up for serialization and significantly changed in order to make them a serial. In both cases, major parts of the story were changed, including the design of the heroine and the nature of the accident that starts everything in Half & Half (In the one-shot, she looked like Yuzuki from Kimi no Iru Machi and they were both hit by a truck, in the serialization she looks more like one of the other KNIM characters and she hit him when she fell or jumped off of a building. You find out which a few chapters in...) and the relationship between the male and female protagonists in Nisekoi (In the one-shot, they knew each other since childhood, in the serialization, the female protagonist just moved to Japan from America.)

Oh that is nice. Hey we should open a thread for one shots stories. So that way people can show what they can in that limit.

I've pu the layout up, sorry for not giving the code at the same time xD

Animewolfguy | May 28, 2013 4:02 PM
Oh I will admit that one. I don't mind complicated writing as long as I can get a sense of what they are writing. I don't like it when I'm in the dark.

AkuDaiki | May 28, 2013 3:55 PM
mmm except the evangelion movies they are perfect haha but yeah writing is tough so you cant get down about something not being perfect because nothing ventured is nothing gained
