Very strong in the slice of life theme, neither has any real story, yet is better than many others with. Both Yotsuba and Akari see the world in a very innocent way, both very enjoyable. Yotsuba&! is more comedy oriented than Aria, though.
The genre of both is best described as slice-of-life. Both deal with the generally calm and relaxing details of a character's everyday existence. The chief similarity between Yotsuba and Akari is that both are eternal optimists who find wonder in everything they experience. Akari is able to reflect in a more sophisticated way on the wonders she discovers, but both characters' initial reactions are often comical in their intensity.

There is a strong feeling of slice of life in both Aria and Yotsubato. Both series has an elegant atmosphere and details everyday experiences at its finest through storytelling. Whether it's indoors or out in the community, there is elegance with its background settings. Both series' main characters can also be very fun to get attached to because of their diverse personalities. Anyone who wants a bite out of slice of life must seek these two series out. In my eyes, it doesn't get more classic than this.
