Gag manga may not be one of the most popular niches ever, but there are some truly excellent works that fall under this category. This type of manga offers the perfect opportunity for funny events, as they often disregard aspects like the story and character development of a work to allow for fully exploring the humorous potential of specific characters and settings in an easy-to-follow, episodic manner.

It may seem difficult to find gag manga worth one's time in the current landscape, but that is far from the truth. Even when limiting one's options to works that are currently being published, there are still quite a few options to choose from when searching for genuinely funny manga. Some of the funniest gag manga ever are still being published to this day, meaning manga fans looking for a laugh have plenty of options.
