I think I know what you mean with the shallow - or if you ask me, unnecessarily thorough - exposition... although, as you say yourself, there are some gems out there that don't simply hand it all to you on a silver platter. Anime definitely had a huge impact on my Japanese studies at the time. While the easy version of NHK (forgot the exact name of the offshoot...) was what gave me most in terms of pronunciation, intonation and accent - by doing shadowing and transcription -, anime gave me recreation AND the language. :)
Do you have any suggestions for a slice-of-life style show focused on a few guys' perspective? I don't know much about it, but I'm thinking something similar to Nichijou? Or Joshiraku?
Something where it's not punishing if I miss or don't understand a few lines.
I don't know anything other than Nichijou, unfortunately. I'm one of those people who just retwatch a few series a thousand times. XD
I did ask a very knowledgeable friend for you though: perhaps Bocchi the Rock!, Aharen-san Is Indecipherable or The Yakuza's Guide to Babysitting
