10 Movies You Didn't Realise Are Actually a Slice of Life

Slice of life is a genre which follows the daily lives of characters and often lacks a strong focus on plot progression. Unlike in most stories, the narrative of slice of life films are focused more around everyday activities and generally circumvent major plot points, twists, or Drama. They also often tend to lack a dénouement and instead usually have an open ending or an anti-climax. In spite of this, a number of slice of life movies will sometimes focus on a Coming-of-Age story, and instead focus on the everyday aspects of growing up as opposed to larger critical, dramatic elements. The genre has gained noticeable commonality in Anime and manga, often focusing on school life.
