Days 10 & 11
Whoops, yesterday got away from me. Luckily these two are pretty easy (if unoriginal).
Favorite slice of life anime
It feels like cheating to mention an anime more than once, but it's hard to choose anything but Azumanga Daioh for slice of life. I'm not even sure what else I would count toward the genre. (Does it count if something belongs to another genre, like romance, but does a really good job of capturing the feel of everyday life? If so, I might name KareKano or the much MUCH less well known BL anime Lesson XX.)
Favorite mecha anime
And again with the cheating. Escaflowne, all the way. I really don't like mecha in general, but I loved how Escaflowne incorporated mecha into the fantasy genre. Cloaks! Dragons!
Oh, but thinking of a runner-up for mecha, this has the interesting quality of combining an answer to both 10 & 11. I saw the OVA series at a campus anime club, and it's more slice of life than robot battle, very sweet.

(Hooray validation for Super Gals!) XD
I thought she meant because she used it before?
I took her to mean possibly both ways - that she used it before and that it's not something like Eva or Gundam and the like. And I don't think it's cheating either way at all. :) Personally, I don't think it's cheating to duplicate answers on a meme like this, just because there is BOUND to be some overlap.

No epic fight scenes = slice of life...?

Well, I'm trying to avoid repeats on mine, too, so I can kinda understand. But, for instance, when one answer is "Osaka from Azumanga Daioh" and one answer is "Azumanga Daioh," I wouldn't really consider that a repeat.
