I'll recommend Mushishi too since even there is some fantasy element, I think the story actually focused more on the drama of human relationship and how we perceived life
and the settings is nice :D

other than that maybe you can try:
Tamayura OVA, Sketchbook, Bartender, Eve no Jikan

Kimi Ni Todoke and Lovely Complex for school romance. I also agree that Nodame Cantabile will be a good choice too.

Read through my journey on attempting the challenge in MAL blog!

Nothing Action packed, nothing Otherworldly so no Fantasy or Sci Fi. I guess something like a Comedy/Romance/Drama thats set in the real world and somewhat realistic.

With nice settings like Countrysides, Beaches, Water parks. Places you would like to go on Holiday to relax is there any calm but good anime that are peaceful and nice like this?


these come to mind:

Bungaku Shoujo
Bokura ga Ita
Canvas 2: Niji-iro no Sketch
Clannad
Clannad after story
ef - a tale of memories.
ef - a tale of melodies.
Hanbun no Tsuki ga Noboru Sora
Kanon (2006)
Kimi ga Nozomu Eien
Kimi ga Nozomu Eien: Next Season (alt. ending)
Myself ; Yourself
REC
Treu tears
Is”Pure
Lamune
Ai Yori Aoshi
Ai Yori Aoshi: Enishi
Amagami SS
Toradora!
Kaichou wa Maid-sama!
Hitohira

(most are romance/drama's but also included some romance/comedy's)

There's a tiny bit of fantasy in Aria (mostly for fun, but it's rare). And there is a bit of sci-fi, but it's not really noticeable, since they're mostly rowing around in boats and walking.

But I'm totally recommending it anyway.


I agree, everything in aria is so subtle that i don't see it bothering him.

Elfen Lied, School Days, Denpa teki na Kanajo, Kara no Kyoukai, Kite and Yosuga no Sora were all peaceful and calming series that I genuinely enjoyed.
Everything needs more fanservice. Especially real life.

Aria
Jarinko chie
"If you tremble with indignation at every injustice, then you are a comrade of mine"

When the union's inspiration through the workers' blood shall run
There can be no power greater anywhere beneath the sun
Yet what force on earth is weaker than the feeble strength of one
For the Union makes us strong

Aria the Animation, Natural & Origination.

Guarantee to make you sleep soundly if you watch it before you sleep due to its powerful relaxing theme.

Clannad/Clannad ~Afterstory~ - Seeing as how you didn't like Air and Kanon, Clannad might give justice for Jun Maeda.

√ Peaceful town
√ Relaxing environment but some violent scenes
√ Set in a family theme

K-ON!/K-ON!! - Stay away from this if you're not a fan of Moe stuff. Either way, it's still the best SoL out there, for me.

√ "Fluffy" environment
√ Moe stuff (cakes, teas, music)
√ Colorful cast of characters

The most peaceful & relaxing anime I've watched would probably be Kimi ni Todoke. The tone is refreshing & it can be dramatic at times, but very realistic. Even though it's slow-paced & the summaries don't capture its beauty, you should give it a shot :) I hope you like it as much as I did.

Usagi Drop or Ikoku Meiro no Croisee, both airing at the moment.

Or for something finished you could try Azumanga Daioh or Lucky Star.

Those are the first that comes to mind when thinking of the most peaceful and relaxing anime I've seen.

Honey and Clover is probably the best comedy/drama/romance I've seen up to date. So, go ahead, give it a try. You won't be disappointed.
