Sakurasou no Pet na Kanajo Reviews

Slight spoilers ahead; if spoilers don't bother you much, this should be pretty safe.  ► Summary ◄ Sakurasou no Pet na Kanajo (also known as The Pet Girl of Sakurasou), is about a freshman named Kanda Sorata , who was forced to move out of his school dorm after being caught breaking the rules by keeping a pet cat. The principal gave him two choices: to either get rid of the cat or to move to Sakurasou with it, and he chose the latter. Sakurasou is apparently a separate hostel which houses the more 'troubled' kids of the school, and a lot of negative rumours surround it. Eventually, Sorata moved in and got acquainted with the three existing residents of Sakurasou; Mitaka Jin , a womanizer who keeps several girlfriends at once (some being married), Kamiigusa Misaki , an extremely talented anime-maker who appears to be high on sugar every second of the day, and Akasaka Ryuunosuke , a genius computer geek who develops his own programs and is hardly ever seen leaving his

Spoilers !!! Because I suck. Before we start, this is more of a discussion than a review.

I thought I had the whole plot figured out. First they recruit all the members as shown during the opening theme (which they did, the OP is a large spoiler by itself), they practice hard (done that too), join Love Live (did not), th

Hello folks! Anyway this review is not spoiler free. ► Things I liked ◄ 1. Kagami's Character Development. I noticed that there is a certain pattern to how anime characters are. Firstly, we have the overly immature and thickheaded one, most likely found saying things like "I can do everything by myself" or "I don't need your help", and I expected Kagami to be one of those people. Although he was that way in the beginning, the whole stubborn act quickly went away before it became annoying. He still fought for himself and is still basically a hot-tempered person (hence maintaining a huge part of his personality), but he grew to care about those around him and learnt that they win as a team. This is a smooth and gradual development without him making a 180 degrees change. His goals remain the same and his burning passion for basketball never changed, but he's a lot less reckless and listens to instructions.   2. This quo
