I guess that kind of "beauty in the mundane" isn't appealing enough, but isn't that a bit hypocritical?

I think comedy is the genre you're looking for, if you want to see characters taking a dump.

Slice of life usually isn't that literal, or at least it generally shouldn't be. It's more about the highlights of daily life than the mundane bits.

And so do many anime in general tbh. I mean, there is some anime that show this, but it's probably 4% of all anime ever exist.

Wow, great argument, as I see it all characters in "regular" slice of life animes are meant to bring empathy, the viewers would feel way more into it if the characters were to take a dump or to piss everywhere during a regular scene, after all, we all done that hahahah, the real magic in shitting is the truth behind it and that's what anime needs right now.

it's kinda like that murder scene in perfect blue. you don't need to show them taking the poop, but you can imply that they took a poop.

Yeah, lets spend some anime budget on a character taking a dump. Great suggestion.

I don't think most people watching SoL would want to see that. For comedy anime it's not that improbable though.

You have seen how you poop right!?

Have you asked your parents, sisters/brothers, friends (or even just thought about asking them) before that you are curious enough to want to see them poop (just being on a public toilet place you will not see but listen to other people taking a dump and imagine how they are doing it... -///-)?

So do you think people would pay reading/watching things with people releasing excrements? -w-

Don't forget Naruto. Proof that never ending battle shounen are more realistic than Slice of Life.

It is not in the part of the slice they'd like to highlight in the show.

If it's "cute girls doing cute things" you only need to see the things that can be made out to look cute. Pooping is hard to make cute and generally they also censor poop so it would be pointless to do so anyway. Talking is cute, singing and dancing is cute, doing homework is cute, taking a 3 hour exam isn't cute which is why anime never show those either. You have to think about things logically.

you see how cockroaches / vomits mostly get censored in anime?

poop will get censored too.
-> the reason why animators don't bother to draw something that will get censored (maybe XD)

Probably it's the OP's fetish.
I know some people have this fetish, because there are such scenes in hentai (but I prefer to skip them).

There's a very good reason why proper real time storytelling isn't really a thing in the world of visual entertainment.
There are plenty of books like that if you want to experience taking dumps alongside the characters though.

How the hell should I know is that even a question go ask the studio.

Well, if you're interested into this kind of thing, there are a lot of poops in the slice-of-life manga adaptation Dr.Slump.

I know OP is trolling, but i gotta say it. Because SoL is meant to be kinda relaxing and endearing to watch.
I don't think showing characters pooping falls into that category.

There is no beauty in the mundane of taking a dump, that's why most people do it privately and don't discuss about it in public.

I feel like there's a good picture on the internet with quite the condescending look for this one. I understand where you are coming from though as that is an everyday task that everyone goes through. So technically you could see it in a Slice of Life show one day, though I personally won't watch a show that does that lol.

I think the genre you're looking for is probably hentai.
