I like the slice of life bits of K-On! but I don’t like anime about musical bands unfortunately so looking for other slice of life anime to fill that
I’m guessing that you are looking for slice-of-life (SOL) anime that are also cute-girls-doing-cute-things (CGDCT) anime given that you asked specifically for something like K-On! instead of something like Barakamon or Skip and Loafer
Here are more CGDCT SOL anime, but these are a bit more degenerate:
Sakura Trick
Is this the one where the power of yuri defies the laws of physics?
That scene was peak.
I think “Is the order a rabbt” and “Lucky star” are most similar to “K-ON!” but without music bands. If you ok with camping then “Yuru Camp”.
Haven’t seen K-On myself, a couple of slice-of-life anime that pops up in my head.
- A Place Further Than the Universe
- Skip and Loafer
- Miss Kobayashi’s Dragon Maid
If you want something that’s airing right now “mono” fits a bill. It’s about a girls taking pictures with various cameras.
Already watching it
There are a lot of them, don’t know what you will like so I will a few of my favorites
- Horimiya
- Daily lives of Highschool boys (more comedy than SoL)
- Aharen san wa Hakarenai
- Akebi Chan no Sailor Fuku
Azumanga Daioh, still the GOAT.
Azumanga Daioh is top 5 anime of all time for me. No question.
Yuyushiki, maybe? It’s slice-of-life with three girls in a computer club instead of a music club. I liked K-On’s humor more, but I remember thinking they were similar when I watched it a long time ago.
I’ve already watched Yuyushiki and enjoyed it
I don’t know if I’d call it slice of life, but you might like Anne Shirley (currently airing). For non-airing stuff consider Mr. Villain’s day off, Interviews with Monster Girls, Gabriel Dropout and My Dear Friend Nokotan, in that order.

Skip and Loafer, that seems pretty similar to K-ON
Personally, I find that there is a significant difference between them: Skip and Loafer has quite a bit of conflict-based drama; K-On! doesn’t.
There’s been a bunch of great suggestions in here.
