Language is English but Japanese titles and short comments eg. "かわいい！" are allowed. This is because my Japanese is shit and thus I cannot moderate it effectively.

Mainly for 'pure' slice of life and not romance (that's it's own genre). think:
- Lucky Star (らき☆すた)
- Nichijou (日常)
- Azumanga Daioh (あずまんが大王)
- K-ON! (けいおん!)
- etc
Slice of life portions of Gintama (銀魂) are allowed.

Tough question.
Lucky Star. Konata is such an iconic character, it's pretty hard to compete with her immense otaku power. Also, the show is genuinely quite funny, and the live action endings / karaoke are so creative. It feels like everyone involved had a ton of fun making the show. It's like a big in-joke that you're invited to be part of. Ultimately, though, it's that the character designs are all just so likeable.
Azumanga Diaoh. It's kinda the OG, and really popularised the genre. There's lots of silliness, but they always commit to the bit, and it just works.
Full Metal Panic: Fumoffo. Legit one of the funniest anime I recall ever having seen. That said, it was a long time ago, so I don't remember too much else about it other than laughing a LOT.
