History Main / Yonkoma

* ''Webcomic/TransformersLegends'', a Japanese webcomic on the official Takara Tomy website that was made to promote the ''Franchise/{{Transforemrs}} Legends'' toyline. The majority of strips are done in the yonkoma style.

* ''Webcomic/MiniMari'', a ''VideoGame/{{Touhou}}'' fan yonkoma.

* ''Webcomic/TouhouJournal'', another fan-made ''VideoGame/{{Touhou}}'' 4koma.

* In ''Manga/ZettaiKarenChildren'', from the chapter 104 onwards, before the beginning of every chapter there are always two supplemental comical four-panel strips enclosed, often with useful additional information about characters, interesting back stories, or even introductions to later plot arcs in the main part of the manga.
* The 5th-last ''Manga/MahouSenseiNegima'' chapter followed this format for three pages.

* ''Webcomic/AxisPowersHetalia'', with the exception of a few storylines, most notable the World Conference.

* ''LightNovel/MaoyuuMaouYuusha''

* ''Manga/{{Gunnm}}/Battle Angel Alita'' has been including a few of these in the backs of the graphic novels for 'Last Order'. Usually, they're gags on an element in that story arc ("What if Zazie hadn't been backing Alita up against Toji" (she dies), "Where does Alita's [[BladeBelowTheShoulder Elbogen-Blatt]] go when not in use?" (her boobs), etc).

* ''Webcomics/SequentialArt'' is generally a Yonkoma, but now and again the author splits the single panel into anywhere from 2 to 6 subpanes.

* In ''Anime/LuckyStar'' (itself based on a YonKoma strip), Hiyori mentions that she sometimes draws YonKoma. (Hiyori, incidentally, contains some AuthorAvatar elements.)

* ''VideoGame/{{Tamagotchi}}'' has a manga adaptation titled ''Manga/MangaDeHakkenTamagotchi'' that uses this format.

A ''Yonkoma'' (literally, "four-cell") ''Manga'', better known as 4-Koma, is a short comic that consists of four panels arranged vertically from beginning to end. Like western comic strips[[note]]which also used 4 panels as standard up until around 1990[[/note]], they are often found in newspapers, magazines, graphic novels, and other places. 4-Koma can be single-shot gags, or tell a story across several strips. (Notice that it isn't [[FourIsDeath shikoma]].) Expect nothing short of a RapidFireComedy from 4-Koma mangas, since they fire at least one joke every four frames.

* ''Manga/TheEverydayLifeOfHeroes''

** This was taken to epic extremes with the composite of all their reactions to [[http://danbooru.donmai.us/posts/162556 each individual episode]] of ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann'', including [[spoiler:the time skip at the end of the last episode as well as a reaction to the epic last great battle]], as well as the reactions to the E3 trailer for ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros. Brawl'', with their reactions being [[MundaneMadeAwesome amplified to epic levels]] with the announcement of [[Franchise/MetalGear Snake]].

* ''Manga/MonthlyGirlsNozakiKun''

* ''/Manga/OInariJKTamamoChan''

* ''Manga/SweetMagicSyndrome''

* ''Manga/ShoulderACoffinKuro''
* ''.hack//4koma'', [[/index]]an inter-canon parody of the ''Franchise/DotHack'' series. Some of them were even adapted to CGI in ''VideoGame/DotHackGU Vol. 3: Redemption.''[[index]]

* The ''VideoGame/{{Metroid}}'' series also has a fairly large stash of yonkoma, featured in "Shonen Oh!" magazine with the release of ''Super Metroid.'' Among other hilarious mishaps, the Federation scientists attempt to use the metroid larva for a hat, a salad bowl and a garbage disposal (!), and Samus makes herself dizzy from swinging around grapple points, electrocutes herself at an energy station right after getting out of water, and throws her neck out trying to run and shoot at angles. Never officially released in North America, but available in fan translation.

* ''VideoGame/PuyoPuyo''. Compile-era ones exist based off of ''Tsu'' and ''SUN'', as well as a Rulue-centric one named ''4-koma Gag Battle Spicy''. Also, a Sega-era 4-koma exists for ''Fever'' 1.

* ''Weaponized'' and used as a gag in ''Anime/SoulHunter'' during the manga-only fight between a drunk Taikobou and Raishinshi: the latter tries to attack the former, before realizing that the [[NoFourthWall the vignette layout has changed into a Yonkoma format]]. Su Pu Shan even refers to this as the "Yonkoma Technique". Raishinshi's not amused.

* ''VideoGame/Puyo Puyo''. Compile-era ones exist based off of ''Tsu'' and ''SUN'', as well as a Rulue-centric one named ''4-koma Gag Battle Spicy''. Also, a Sega-era 4-koma exists for ''Fever'' 1.
