I am looking for something along the lines of A Manga With Too Many Premises (5-pages long) and Weirdo (15-pages long).

tbh I'm not sure if plot twist (if there's even a plot) - or just "twist" alone - is even the right term here. What I meant is something unexpected or surprising happening.

Ideally, it would be more fleshed out - i.e. not a one-shot - but the rate at which twists are introduced must be extremely high. At least once per chapter should be the minimum; once per ~~panel~~ page would put it on the same level as the examples given.

It'd be a bonus if it has an anime adaptation. Feel free to recommend non-manga/anime media too!

I think Summertime Rendering is about as close as you can get but once per chapter is a bit much.

Thanks for the recc, though I have watched the anime already.

once per chapter is a bit much

I imagine it would be possible if it's a meta parody.

I think if it's a parody that would make the twists not hit as hard though.

Yeah twists won't hit as hard in a mystery or drama.

That's fine though, because I am looking for something more comedic in nature (see the one-shot examples).

In fact, as prefaced, "twist" may not even be the right term.
