They both deal with school life and first love, but in their own manner. Not so descent and really unique plot follows few middle-schoolers through their every day boring life. But it also features their encounters with supernatural. Though supernatural here is also of a "slice of life" kind. No one makes a fuss about special abilities that posses main characters, no one asks them to save the Earth or change this world. Those supernatural powers showed as a very part of our everyday life. Thus main characters both in Kamichu and Windy Tales are still ordinary middle-schoolers, even though they possess some super powers.
Windy Tales and Kamichu! are all about the wonders of youth. They accent the youthful theme with a modern, real life setting that is touched with just a little bit of whimsical magic. Both are light hearted and episodic. If you've acquired a taste for magical, middle school slice of life anime, both Windy Tales and Kamichu! are right up your alley.
Slice of Life anime with Supernatural/Magic elements are hard to find, but those two are examples of such.
In "Kamichu!" Hitotsubashi Yurie, an average middle school student, became a goddess of a local shrine overnight. Now, with her friend Matsuri as her manager, Yurie has to do things a local goddess must do (like granting wishes or meeting aliens).
In "Fuujin Monogatari" the main characters discover a cat that can fly by manipulating wind. Soon after they learn about a Wind Village, where people know how to control wind, and later go there to learn how to do it.
