I've only watched two from that list.
Guess which two.

>>228113
Lucky Star is a given, but I could hope it was Pico...

Yuyushiki

I think it was only last fall, but I remember enjoying this series in the same vain as AzuDai.

I would still say that Nichijou is the closest I've seen to reach the same level as AD, though. It had comedy (much more slapstick than AD, mind you), but also a lot of heart.
Some people couldn't give a shit about this series (coughJAPANcough), but myself and others hold it in high regard. Maybe it's an acquired taste.

I also have to vote for A Channel, Yuyushiki and YuruYuri.

There haven't been a lot of these kind of shows lately, making my anime-watching drop off a cliff the last few season. Anyone else feel this way?

^Perhaps, but I also noticed there were more SoL series in the past few seasons than in recent years. I noticed this about a year or so back, but I just can't remember them. They were definitely the 4-koma type that you'll either enjoy or just forget once you're done watching (as in my case, it seems).

I know the success of K-On! really pushed for more series along the lines of club members doing whatever - aside from chatting.
If I had time I'd share my MAL since I usually give SoL series a first-look.

I just remembered Sketchbook Full Color'S. It was cute and funny, but ultimately forgettable. The only memorable thing about it was Kate, the adorably obnoxious Canadian weeaboo.

A recent one is Non Non Biyori. It's getting a second season.

Kobako has run out of some steam lately, but through its first decade Sketchbook was the best work in this genre. It's nothing like the sanitized TV adaptation.

Onnoji and Kemono to Chat are also very funny.

>>228127
Sketchbook had a great mood to it. Yeah, Kate was the minor side character that outshone everyone else. I loved the scene where she got dressed and then kidnapped and put in a steam room. Or maybe that didn't happen?

How was it different in the manga form?

>>228143
I'm curious about this too. I tried reading the manga many years ago after watching the anime, but the translation was so stilted, it sucked all the humor out of the gags.

I guess at this point I don't really need a translation to be able to read it anymore though...

If I remember the manga was more focused on the just various antics of the art club. Also Sora wasn't really the main character, in fact compared to the anime she was hardly there.
There was more stuff focusing on the other characters.

Between the two I'd say the major difference is between the anime and manga is that the manga focused on showing the antics of the various art club members while the anime was about Sora discovering the beauty of everyday life and how it changes with each different point of view and all that.

Also one thing I never noticed in the anime in that was brought up once or twice in the manga is that Sora rarely every speaks in full sentences. In the anime a lot of her speech was just internal monologue.

The only thing that was different about it was everything that made it what it was.

It would be like turning Madame Bovary into a board game or Alice's Adventures in Wonderland into a Disney cartoon.

>>228128
I also want to reccomend non non biyori. it has a lot of the same feel.

"A Centaur's Life" is really good (and unique) slice of life manga.

>>228601
Is this furry?

>>228602

I wouldn't call it furry as it has mostly fantasy characters like centaurs, satyrs, mermaids and imps living like normal humans.

>>228606
Also they seem to be living in some kind of fascist state that is only vaguely implied in the background.

This isn't exactly slice of life, it's club activity focused in the same way as K-On, but it's pretty good fun.
100% serious about motorbikes, 0% serious about everything else, and cute style. Onsa is awesome.

tl;dr: It's moe Top Gear.

What is your opinion on Flying Witch?
It's basically yotsuba with magic.

She and that cat looks like a grown up Kiki from Kiki Delivery Service.
