=== [[Slice of Life]] ===
 
* [[Trope Maker]]: ''[[Sazae-san]]'' aired October 1969 to the present. ''Sazae-san'' depicts ordinary life in Japan. When it first started airing it was considered very liberal and supportive of change in Japanese life (particularly supporting strong women). NowA half century later, it's viewed as enshrining traditional Japanese life.
* [[Trope Codifier]]s:
** [[Mundane Fantastic|"Fantasy"]] [[Slice of Life]] [[Trope Codifier]]: ''[[Aria]]'' aired from Fall of 2005 to 2008. ''Aria'' is often identified as a trope codifier for "pure" Slice of Life anime. Set in a fantastical world, yet there is little or no adventure beyond the typical life issues we see on Earth. For people who like lovely imagery of beautiful girls against a wondrous backdrop, this Slice Of Life series is a nice change of pace from the action and fanservice of most other anime. Known for a slow pace, and beautifully drawn scenery. Often compared with the earlier manga ''[[Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou]]''.
