Today's pick in the Daily Anime Pick-Series where I pick one anime each day that I think is worth watching is Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo!
What you'll get with this anime is a spectacular visually appealing romance-comedy anime that definitely is worth a watch.
It is about Sorata Kanda who was forced to move to a different dorm because he refused to abandon a cat he picked up. He ended up in the infamous Sakurasou which is rumored to host a range of weird students. As it turns out all of the students who live in Sakurasou have some great talents and out-of-the-ordinary personalities. After moving in he was asked to pick up a new girl that will join them at Sakurasou named Mashiro Shiina. Her special talent is drawing and her special weirdness is that she is dependent. She won't cloth herself properly without making her do so and that's not the only thing. So Sorata was nominated to be her caretaker. And that's how the story begins.
I doubt you will be disappointed if you like romance animes so give it a shot!

Description
When abandoned kittens and his good conscience force second year Sorata Kanda to move into Suimei High School’s infamous Sakura Hall, the satellite dorm and its eccentric, misfit residents turn his life upside down. The decidedly average Sorata finds it difficult to fit in with the bizarre collection of dorm residents like Misaki, an energetic animator; Jin, a playwright playboy; Ryuunosuke, a reclusive programmer; and Chihiro, the dorm manager, art teacher, and party girl.
Sorata's friend Nanami, a second year student and aspiring voice actress, pushes him to find new owners for the many cats so that he can quickly move back into the regular dorms. However, his desire to escape Sakura Hall wavers when the pet-like and infantile second year Mashiro Shiina, a world-class artistic savant looking to become a mangaka, transfers in during the spring trimester and quickly latches onto him.
Supported by each other's quirks, Sorata and Mashiro come out of their shells and trigger change in the lives of those around them. Based on the light novel series of the same name, Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo explores the fine threads connecting talent, hard work, romance, and friendship with its ensemble cast.
