I'm really into animes like GTO and Love Hina (fanservice, comedy, slice-of-life). Can anyone recommend something like them with those genres?

If you haven't already seen it, I bet you'd really like Azumanga Daioh

Yes, AzuDai is a terrific show. It's very funny and has likeable characters. There's no plot and you're only exposed to the high school lives of the girls and a few of their teachers. One of the most light hearted titles I've ever seen, and it really does feel refreshing to watch.

Also try Kare Kano. It's more of a romance when you get down to it, but the occasional comedy makes it just as fun to watch. The two main characters are portrayed very realisticly, in my opinion. I found myself empathizing for them a lot in how they interacted with one another, as well as seeing a lot of shared quailities I feel a lot of people can experience during a romance (of course I still think it's all hooey when you get past the fiction, as NONE of it will EVER happen in real life Rolling Eyes).

Anyway, these two titles are excellent, and I'd recommend them whole-heartedly Anime smile.

For fan service and comedy, give Nurse Witch Komugi a try. It's extremely wacky. For slice of life, I can't think of another title other than Azumanga Daioh.

Although I haven't finished it, I've been enjoying Magical Shopping Arcade Abeoboshi. It's pretty funny, but not as good as GTO.
