| No. |
| NHK is worse. |
 |
| Na, but it's definitely entertaining. |
| No. |
| Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances. He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter. Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga. Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month. Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel. The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck. |
| It's a great anime, but idk if it's the best slice of life. Even though it relates to ALOT of people :P |

| Hmmm? |
Please learn about cel animation and its technical process. Learn how special effects and backlighting were done without computers. |
| This is more funnier than NHK xD |

| It's comparable to NHK, hence me having just made a recommendation for the two, but until there's a totally serious segment dealing with the problems the heroine faces and how difficult it is to overcome them, it's never gonna be on the same page. NHK blended hilarious failure with realistic life struggles. Watashi's character design, voice acting and direction suggest it's only interested in poking fun. Time will tell, I guess... PS: Stop labeling everything as slice-of-life. Something so... anime in its OTT nature can't be sliced up neatly as a serving of everyday life. Thx. PS2: Gonzo made some of the best anime, as well as some of the worst. 2/10 of my favourites ain't a bad ratio. Stop hating on those it's considered cool to hate 'cause it's easy. Thx again. PS3: Bai. |
| no! |
 |
| I disagree. |
Trippled said: Yep |
| I'm sorry, when the fuck did NHK become a paragon of Slice of Life? It has some elements but who actually looks at NHK and goes "Dude, it's such a good Slice of Life show. Even better than Lucky Star." |
| Maybe the title of this thread is kind of confusing since there are many, many slice-of-life anime series, and there are lots of sub-genres. Anyways, we can compare the characteristics of the main characters of the two series: Series title: Watamote Main character: Tomoko Kuroki Her problem: "Mojo" or "unpopular girl" Definition: Although the manga and anime do it a bit differently, a "mojo" is typically defined in Japan to be a woman: - Who has never dated a boy - Who has never even been confessed to by a boy - Is perceived by herself to be unpopular - Is perceived by others to be unpopular Series title: Welcome to the NHK Main character: Tatsuhiro Satō His problem: Hikikomori Definition: There is actually a clinical definition of a "hikikomori" used by pschiatrists in Japan: 1) spending most of the day and nearly every day confined to home, 2) marked and persistent avoidance of social situations, 3) symptoms interfering significantly with the person’s normal routine, occupational . . (or academic) functioning, or social activities or relationships, 4) perceiving the withdrawal as ego-syntonic, 5) duration at least six months 6) no other mental disorder that accounts for the social withdrawal and avoidance. Details: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hikikomori http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welcome_to_the_N.H.K. So, Watamote and NHK are two different anime series about two different people with two quite different problems. I think that they are both good and it looks difficult to say which is better. |
| Yes. Whoever disagrees is stupid. |
| its up to a person i guess.. hanasaku iroha is the best SoL for me.. :) |
 |
| It feels very early to make such a claim though, it's been 3 episodes and things could go south. |
Asteris said: Yes. Whoever disagrees is stupid. |
| ^ haha , space brother is the best slice of life. Anyway, If Watamote is a Slice of life. Then I might choose Mr.Been as my favorite xD |
| IDK if you can even call Lucky Star slice of life, as no life or plot is going on. Anyways, Watamote is really over rated. Its a great show thats being massively blown out of proportion because social invalids on MAL can relate to it. The first episode when she threatened to kill herself and the second episode when she cried because her best friend had a boyfriend werent funny to me. Just saying. However, pooping outside bathrooms is awesome. So IDK. |
| People must be crazy if they think this is better than NHK Compared to NHK which is more mature and has more depth, this is like written by some random 2ch or nicovideo addicts |

Candor said: Thoulin said: MuttaYES! but nhk still first for me... but now i have a doubt? tomoko or misaki? I must agree with you. |
 |
| NHK is more serious. Watamote I feel it like a funny version of a problem with some that still hides a truth about people like Tomoko. |
| Isnt watamote just a comedy with dark jokes? I dont know how you can compare that to a show like NHK which takes a delve into some pretty heavy psychological problems in a serious light, like even NHK's sense of humor seems like its in a different style cause almost all of the jokes made in NHK seemed to lead into something much more serious later on. Liking one more than another is purely subjective but comparing those 2 specifically really seems uncalled for and doesnt make much sense |

| ^ Watamote is an episodic gag anime/manga with black comedy. NHK is supposed to be a serious social commentary about a real life issue it also has black comedy but it's not episodic or a gag anime. |

| I couldn't last more than half of an episode. And I read the manga. So nope. And as other people have pointed it out, they're not comparable because of the different genre they belong (and I don't mean SoL). |

Being "antisocial" is not a comparison. Their case are completely different, other users have already pointed it out. ps. NHK manga was different than anime I'm aware of that. If you've read my list you'd already know I watched the NHK anime and I read both the novel and the manga. |
| Sorry, due to licensing limitations, this signature is unavailable in your region. |
| Sure they are little different but saying 'completely' different is 'no no'. Let's take okanagan's post: Watamote: 1) She spends lots of time in home, from episode 2: 2) In the episode 1 she is avoiding people 3) The fragment from 2) 5) read spoiler from 1) NHK: I don't think he had girlfriend or have been confessed Popularity-> more or less he perceive it. ps. I'm not psychiatrist, psychologist or something like this but I can take some definition from wikipedia(or just from my head but It was long time ago when I have been reading about that stuffs) and I can show you they have symptoms of the same disease. |
| Wannabiteme: -Satou -Tomoko on the other hand had her clique in middle school and as I can see in the spin-off manga, they I'm not a psychologist either, I only studied it a bit at university and I forgot most of it :( |

(though she has the potential) It's good that you see similarities. sophomore syndrome (chuunibyou) Chuunibyou demo Koi ga Shitai!<- does this anime count for that "term"? Sorry but this term, I think, is so badly translated to my language that it means LOTS of things Is this some kind of withdrawal from society because of unusual hobby? ps. Have I said that I'm at the begining of the manga/anime of Watamote? :D ps2. Dick? What's that? |

Have I said that I'm at the begining of the manga/anime of Watamote? :D ps2. Dick? What's that? -Dick Dastardly from Wacky Races, an old Hanna-Barbera cartoon. He was a villain protagonist who in every episode tried to cheat his way through but failed and always came last on the race. Also the series was kinda repetitive. -Chuunibyou is a term that existed before that anime (which comes from a novel if I'm not mistaken). I haven't seen the anime myself I admit, but I googled the term: a teenager with full of delusions about how the world works, tries to imitate what he/she perceives as an adult thing to do, sometimes even goes as far as thinking he/she has superpowers (I had such period myself). In short, they think they're special and better than the others. Well, how Tomoko sees other girls as "bitches and whores" - even about her supposed-to-be friend Yuu - and in almost every chapter she has a new (and often wrong and embarrassing) idea about how people would start talking to her, let's just say, she has such traits. |
