Most of the time, I don't really pick this genre. However, most of you guys know how popular Clannad is and there are many slice of genre anime, which are pretty good. So, I was just wondering the other day, what exactly makes a slice of life anime good?
Is it the interesting plot or something else? Or what exactly makes it boring or different from the rest of the same genre?
Thoughts on this guys?
 
The only slice of life anime I watched was Fruits Basket. My wife loved the manga and watched the older anime, but wanted to watch the newer one so I decided to watch it with her. I actually didn't mind it much, but I'm more into action stuff lol. So if you're not into romance or every day life I can see why you would find the genre boring. I know it's not for everyone. I probably wouldn't have watched Fruits Basket if my wife wasn't interested in it honestly.
