This stack is dedicated to shows that are either inspired by Takarazuka or directly dedicated to it. Takarazuka is an iconic Japanese all-female theater group from the city of the same name, that is widely known for their authentic musicals, homoerotic reputation and huge influence on Japanese women's culture. In most cases, it is either about the characteristic prince-ish girls "ottokoyaku" (of a certain aesthetic, not just androgynous ikemen onna), the so-called "Takarazuka couples" (a pair of female characters inspired by ottokoyaku and musumeyakku), and various theatrical aesthetics, but there may also be direct quotation and demonstration of the troupe's activities.

Since MAL's definition for slice of life was made on April 2022, a lot of anime lost their Slice of Life tag. This stack contains some of the anime that had the SoL tag before the change but lost the tag after the change. Sequels/spin-offs aren't included unless the original still has the SoL tag.
Updated on June 3, 2023.
The reason there aren't 50 anime here is that the Wayback machine has very few captures of SoL anime more obscure than these. If you find more examples of anime that lost their SoL tags, please send them to me.

List of manga that have been performed by Takarazuka Revue
"Slice of Life is incompatible with Comedy, Drama, and Romance by definition."
The quote above comes from MAL's definition of "Slice of Life". However, there are a lot of anime that break that rule. This is a list of some of the slice of life anime that are also tagged as comedy, drama, or romance as of June 3, 2023. Sequels and spin-offs aren't included unless the original entry doesn't break the definition. This list is likely to be outdated in the future as MAL continues to change the tags.
