Here is everything you need to know about the five happiest characters in slice-of-life anime.
Narumi Momose(Wotakoi: Love Is Hard For Otaku)
Narumi Momose is a total deredere who simply loves everyone and everything around her. Such a compassionate and carefree personality can make almost anyone happy, contrasting with Narumi’s boyfriend’s Kuudere ways.
Narumi is a happy and heartfelt person who is rarely upset or angry, and she doesn’t really hold grudges, either. She finds joy in her everyday life by drawing her own dojinshi manga and reading every BL manga or novel she can find. And of course, spending quality time with Hirotaka boosts her happiness even more in Wotakoi.
Nadeshiko Kagamihara(Laid-Back Camp)
The pink-haired student Nadeshiko Kagamihara feels pretty cooped up in school. She and her friends would much rather explore Japan’s great outdoors with just a tent and a backpack of supplies. Laid-Back Camp is an edutainment anime about camping, after all, and Nadeshiko finds it thrilling.
Nadeshiko is always in a good mood. She feels even happier when she’s halfway through another successful camping trip. She has more to learn and sometimes makes mistakes, but that never gets her down. Even when disaster strikes out there in the wilderness.
Tohru(Miss Kobayashi’s Dragon Maid)
The reverse Isekai anime Miss Kobayashi’s Dragon Maid is a goofy, popular seinen anime. With wacky characters and bizarre humor involving dragons trying to acclimatize themselves to modern Japanese life. The deredere dragon Tohru, at least, seems to be settling in well.
Tohru’s Earth life is much happier and more meaningful than her life in the fantasy world. She is glad to be here and serve Miss Kobayashi as a live-in maid. For Tohru, there is no greater joy than vacuuming, doing the laundry, and spending all day with her beloved human boss.
Makoto(Flying Witch)
Flying Witch is what’s called an Iyashikei anime, or an easygoing, low-conflict anime. These are often slice-of-life anime with happy, likable protagonists, such as the magical girl Makoto.
Makoto is a teenage witch in training, and she is quite happy and comfortable in her everyday life. She can only cast minor spells for now. But Makoto is happy with her progress and enjoys spending time with her witch cousin, Akane.
