(Chin go ishi no himitsu)"The Secret of the Guardian Stone"
Samurai Bride, Guardian Stone, vengeful spirit and discussions that can only occur in the bathtub the intrigue and mysteries were weaved together beautifully!*NSFW & Dripping Wet* |
And the secret fifth facet, Minoru Shiraishi. |
I've been doing a lot of writing for the upcoming season preview lately, and for a while it seemed like every show I was previewing was slice-of-life. I don't know if there are more slice-of-life shows now-a-days or if I just picked every one of them to preview (which is likely), but in trying to figure out which shows to suggest to you, and for what reasons, I inadvertently came up with a framework by which to describe and/or judge slice-of-life shows. These are the four most common facets which modern slice-of-life anime and manga stories employ: atmosphere, characters, cuteness, and comedy, and a special fifth one, because I'm a cheater like that.

(ONIKA)
"Onika"
It's a tough time to be a big story in anime.

(Koufuku na Ouji)
"The Happy Prince"
...what?
Well that affection escalated quickly.
(Ore no Imouto ga Uedingu Doresu o Kiru Wake ga Nai)
"My Little Sister Can't Wear a Wedding Dress"
We're only recovering from one breakup, yet hints of romantic affection are in the air once more! This show isn't slowing down to avoid rebound at all!
From here on out, non-spoiler tag light novel spoilers will be treated with zero tolerance.

(Haisukuuru Obu Za Hiito)
"High School of The Heat"
And while I'll never complain about listening to that awesome little vacuum cleaner shout out "Cyclone, Cyclone!" I never expected that all the foreshadowing about just how ridiculous Nyaruko was at playing card games would ever matter.
