I really don't know what slice of life is, that's my problem. Part of me thinks of it as "any anime that realistically evokes the details of ordinary life" (which is why almost all shoujo counts if it isn't set in a fantasy universe), but properly, I think it ought to be an anime whose only reason to exist is to do ordinary-life vignettes (i.e. not a romance, mystery, sci-fi story, etc). And not many things do that well.
