I have been looking for a good romantic comedy for a while, as the ones I find have a very basic story and are too focused on the drama and romance for the anime to be funny. Sakurasou was recommended to me through Toradora, and since I enjoyed Toradora, I'll give this anime a shot. I am so glad I did. This anime surpassed all my expectations and more!

Story: 9
The story isn't too focused on the romance, as most romantic comedies do. It is the life of students who are outcasted by their school and the story is of their year living together as a new student enters the dorm. As you get farther into the anime, the story develops more, producing funny or dramatic moments that causes you to question what will happen next. Not only that, but the story relates so well to life, the events in the story can be taken as life lessons that I will remember forever.

Art: 10
HOLY CRAP. This anime is BEAUTIFUL, I mean it should be, since most of the students are very artistic. The colors are amazing and everything is drawn so well.

Sound: 8
No complaints on the sound, a typical soundtrack for an anime, nothing to outstanding. It kept the mood going, but I wouldn't go out of my way to look up the songs, besides the first introduction song.

Characters: 10
I love every, and I mean every single character in this anime. They all have a certain thing to them that makes them all unique but work so well together. Even characters with minor roles have a unique personality of their own. Not only that, but each character actually teaches you something about your own life and how to handle certain situations such as failing or feeling alone.

Enjoyment: 9
It has been a while since I have laughed and smiled at an anime (but I guess it doesn't help that I have been watching more serious ones...). I enjoyed all the jokes, and the drama, everything was enjoyable.

Overall: 9
Not one of my absolute favorite animes, but this anime still has a spot for favorite. I will for sure be recommending this anime to my friends as an anime when you need to laugh, or needs to be taught a lesson by the characters.
