Hello, weeabos.
I am new here and a non-native-english-speaker, so please, be gentle.
I love oneshots and read some of them, but, I would like to know how can I see how many oneshots are made this year or last year (or any year).
I mean, is there any one shot chart here? Can you recommend me some of them? How can I know if there is good one shot stuff going out right now in weeaboland?
Help me!

You can't. Bakaupdates has a list on translated chapters but nobody knows how much is being published right now.

I doubt you'll find any comprehensive list of all the oneshots published in Japan. In terms of stuff that's been translated into English, you can use the advance genre search on mangaupdates - they only accept oneshots that have been scanlated or published, so no untranslated oneshots are included. (Well, there's still a few from back before they changed that rule, but they'd all be over 10 years old at this point.)

For example, here's MU's list of oneshots, sorted by year, excluding hentai, yaoi and yuri:

The dead scanlations blog features untranslated oneshots from certain magazines. So you could try starting your search for Japanese oneshots there:

You posted this during our nap time. This is a slow board. Also, note that MU doesn't have every oneshot that's been translated, just the ones released by "official" scanlation groups - which is to say, groups that set up a website of some sort.
Things that get released anonymously like:

aren't included.

Yeah, I am new here, have been on imageboards for 10 years but not here on 4chan.
It's okay when I have a lazy day like this, and...actually, people are really nice.
Thanks anon.
How can I, at least know about it?
LIke, do you recommend some places that I should be looking?
Come to think of it, that also excludes collections of oneshots. Let's fix that.
Collection of Stories, at least partially translated:
http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?perpage=50&category=Collection%2Bof%2BStories&filter=some_releases&type=manga&exclude_genre=Hentai_Yaoi_Yuri&orderby=year
Collection of Stories, completely untranslated:
http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?perpage=50&category=Collection%2Bof%2BStories&filter=no_releases&type=manga&exclude_genre=Hentai_Yaoi_Yuri&orderby=year
Some of these collections may be interlinked stories, rather than oneshots.

I just stumble across things here and there. When people don't advertise things, you're dependent on word of mouth and being in the right place at the right time.

I know people here hate leddit, but I really thought there were some leddit group that could do it.
Thanks, I am putting on favorites!
