Slice-of-life has always been one of my preferred anime genres. A lot of my favourite shows have had some element of slice-of-life in them, whether it's just there to fill up some gaps in the story or as a main genre. Like Hanasaku Iroha (also by P.A. Works), TARI TARI also focuses on the daily lives of a group of adolescents who are brought together by a common medium—a job at an inn in Hanasaku Iroha and music in TARI TARI. What I like about the latter medium is that it's easier for me to relate to; I've never been to a Japanese-style inn before, let alone worked in one, but I am exposed to different kinds of music every day. Thus, I have more confidence in my ability to get immersed into the story, effectively decreasing the chances of me dropping this on the blog like I did with Hanasaku Iroha. Lastly, the characters look more appealing in TARI TARI so that's a nice bonus, too.
