At Suimei High, the Sakura-sou dormitory is infamous for housing the school's most notorious delinquents. Thus, when the relatively tame Sorata Kanda is transferred to the dorm, escaping this insane asylum becomes his foremost goal. Trapped there for the time being, he must learn how to deal with his fellow residents, including bubbly animator Misaki Kamiigusa, charming playboy writer Jin Mitaka, and the ever-reclusive Ryuunosuke Akasaka. Surrounded by weirdness, Sorata frequently finds respite in his interactions with his one "normal" friend, aspiring voice actress Nanami Aoyama.
When Mashiro Shiina—a new foreign exchange student—joins the dormitory, Sorata is instantly enraptured by her beauty. Underneath her otherworldly appearance, Mashiro is an autistic savant, capable of world-renowned brilliance in her art, yet unable to perform simple daily tasks. After Sorata ends up in charge of taking care of Mashiro, the two inevitably grow closer, with Sorata's initial desire to escape the dormitory becoming a forgotten goal.
Despite their eccentricities, every resident is incredible in their own field, leaving Sorata to contend with his own lack of any particular skill. With brilliance all around him, he thus strives to become an equal to their talent. Revolving around the hardships and joys of its colorful cast, Sakura-sou no Pet na Kanojo is a heartwarming coming-of-age tale of friendship, love, ambition, and heartbreak—through the lens of an ordinary person surrounded by the extraordinary.

00:32The situation is more difficult than I thought.
00:35This has nothing to do with the other students.
00:38Hey, Sakura-sou is in a pinch.
00:41Miyahara-kun.
00:43I'll help you.

02:49Three people gathered here in the middle of the night, huh...
02:53Kamigusa-senpai and Mitaka-senpai are supposed to be in the 3rd-year students' class, but...
03:01Kanda.
03:03Akasaka, what's up with you this morning?
03:06We all agreed to work on our signatures, didn't we?
03:10What's this?
03:12As you can see, it's the board's memorandum.
03:15Mitaka-senpai, you were worried about this, weren't you?
03:17If you look at this, you can see what the principals are thinking.
03:20Are you hacking us?!
03:22Are you sure you're okay to do this?
03:24Do you think I'd do something so ridiculous?
03:27No, that's not what I meant...
03:28Look at the first page.
03:30There's a report from a businessman who investigated the old-age home in Sakura-sou.
03:35Taking safety into consideration,
03:38he recommends that the residents be evacuated and demolished within five years.
03:42Five years isn't that long ago, is it?
03:44In other words, there's no need to leave in a hurry.
03:48Read the rest.
03:51Shiina?
03:54Shiina...
03:57I keep hearing Shiina's name.
04:00I know it sounds ridiculous,
04:02but in short, it's inconvenient for Shiina Mashiro to be in Sakura-sou.
04:06That's what it means.
04:09Given that Shiina's talent for drawing has been wasted on manga,
04:13the board is in a crisis.
04:16Before this school is told that Shiina's talent has been wasted,
04:20we must take action.
04:22Therefore, we decided to destroy Sakura-sou, which is said to have had a negative impact on Shiina.
04:27Wait a minute!
04:29Sakura-sou has nothing to do with Shiina becoming a manga artist!
04:32The members of the board don't seem to think so.
04:36I'll explain to the principal!
04:37Wait, Kanda-kun!
04:43Kanda-kun, wait!
04:46If I were the principal, I'd ask Kanda this.
04:50Where did you find out about the board's contents?
04:54You're not going to tell me that you hacked the school's server, are you?
05:00If you say that, it'll only make things worse.
05:02Besides, Sengoku-sensei explained that Shiina's manga has nothing to do with Sakura-sou.
05:08That's true.
05:10Thanks to Chihiro-sensei's persistence, Sakura-sou didn't get destroyed.
05:14Then what should we do?
05:16We can't just leave it like this!
05:18What should we do?
05:20I think the answer is obvious.
05:23The reason Shiina is in Sakura-sou is to destroy Sakura-sou.
05:27If that's the case, the solution is obvious.
05:31Isn't that right?
05:31Shut up.
05:33Kanda, your time is more precious than anyone else's right now.
05:37Are you ready for the game's title screening?
05:41I think you should solve the problem quickly and focus on that.
05:47I told you to shut up!
05:50Mashiro!
05:53Were you listening to what I just said?
05:58No, it's nothing.
06:00Is something wrong?
06:01Shiho wrote it for me.
06:04I see.
06:05I guess there's someone in your class who can help you.
06:08How many more people should I gather?
06:11A lot.
06:12Enough to fill this notebook.
06:14I'll ask for more.
06:20Currently, most of the third-year students have not applied.
06:24In other words, two-thirds of all students
06:27have to collect signatures from the first and second-year students.
06:33I know that.
06:34Besides, even if the signatures are collected,
06:37as long as Shiina is in Sakura-sou,
06:39there is no guarantee that the decision of the board will be overturned.
06:43Don't struggle with understanding.
06:45There's a solution right in front of you.
06:47Why are you giving up on it?
06:49Do you think it's okay for Shiina to leave Sakura-sou?
06:53It's not a matter of good or bad.
06:56It's the most reliable option.
06:58That's not...
06:59Where is Sakura-sou when the person who should be there is gone?
07:04I don't want to lose anyone.
07:07Shiina, Aoyama, Misaki-senpai, Jin-san, and Chihiro-sensei.
07:11Of course, Akasaka also wants to be in Sakura-sou.
07:14They're important friends.
07:16Then I'll ask.
07:19Are you saying that important friends like Kanda
07:21are weak and can be lost just because a building is demolished?
07:26No.
07:27Such a high-profile relationship will soon disappear.
07:32I said no!
07:34Even if you protect Sakura-sou,
07:36half of the residents will be gone next year.
07:39I think it's better to think about that, too.
07:42Of course, it can't be helped because the seniors will graduate.
07:46What are you talking about?
07:48You're the one who's going to be gone, Ponytail.
07:51Your audition results should come out soon.
07:55If you pass, you'll be a member of the voice acting agency.
07:59In other words, the economic burden will be reduced
08:02and you won't need to be in Sakura-sou.
08:05Sakura-sou is not a place where you can continue to live on your own.
08:09If there's no problem, you won't be able to stay.
08:13The time left is short.
08:16I think it's better to focus on making memories
08:19than to devote yourself to signing activities.
08:29If I pass the audition, I'll be able to return to the general dormitory.
08:34I forgot.
08:35It's about time the results are announced, right?
08:39Yeah.
08:39That's why I'm nervous every day when I go back to Sakura-sou.
08:43Yeah, I understand how you feel.
08:46You promised your father that if you didn't pass, you'd go back to your parents' house, right?
08:53Whether I pass or not,
08:56I can't live in Sakura-sou until spring.
08:59Aoyama...
09:01Of course, I'll do my best in my signing activities.
09:04I absolutely don't want Sakura-sou to be gone.
09:07You can only stay at the fairy school for two years?
09:10Yeah.
09:11Whether I pass or not,
09:13I'll graduate in two years.
09:15I see.
09:17You're holding on to something.
09:19You can stay as long as you want for as many years as you want.
09:23I think it's better to have a deadline than to give up.
09:27I think it's kind to say no when it's no good.
09:41Ryunosuke-sama is at school right now.
09:44He doesn't have time to deal with a girl like you.
09:49Wait a minute.
09:50I heard from Mashiro that Ryunosuke didn't participate in his signing activities.
09:54Why is that?
09:57It's none of your business.
10:00If there's something wrong, please tell me.
10:03I'm worried.
10:05If Sakura-sou is gone,
10:08Ryunosuke will be all alone.
10:16Are you worried about Ryunosuke, too?
10:27A bug has just been detected.
10:29There is a risk of data leakage.
10:35It's about when he was in junior high school.
10:38Ryunosuke-sama decided to make a game with his friends.
10:43At first, the work was going smoothly.
10:47But Ryunosuke-sama's level has been soaring since then.
10:52Other people couldn't meet Ryunosuke-sama's requirements.
10:58Ryunosuke-sama was frustrated by this.
11:01Sometimes he was violent with other people.
11:06Ryunosuke-sama was isolated and excluded from the group.
11:11And he never had a chance to be invited by his friends again.
11:20I've recovered from the bug.
11:22Please don't contact me again.
11:24See you.
11:26Chapter 5
11:32Shiina-san?
11:34You still have it.
11:36Shifu, thank you for the notebook.
11:41It's a pretty big canvas.
11:45What kind of picture are you going to draw?
11:49The judging session will be held on March 7th.
11:52There is no need for a gift this time.
11:55The meeting will start at 11 o'clock.
11:57The results will be out in about 30 minutes.
11:59I'll contact you as soon as possible.
12:02The reason why Shiina is in Sakura-sou is because of the break-up.
12:06How many more people do I have to gather?
12:08Will I be able to live in Sakura-sou until spring?
12:12Are you ready for the title judging session?
12:15Kanda-kun.
12:18You don't seem to be in the mood today.
12:20I'm sorry.
12:22Is there something you're worried about?
12:25Other than the title judging session?
12:27N-No, it's just...
12:30Let's take a break.
12:33No way!
12:35Two cups of coffee.
12:37I'm sorry.
12:41I see.
12:43I've had a similar experience.
12:47As soon as I graduated from college,
12:48I was being chased to prepare for my current job.
12:52And at the same time,
12:55a woman I had feelings for was worried about her goal.
13:00Should I stick to the art path?
13:02Or should I become an art teacher?
13:06But I didn't have the time to take care of her.
13:13If you can't throw away other things,
13:15there must be a way to aim for equality without choosing one.
13:20It doesn't matter.
13:23As long as you've made the right decision
13:25about what you want to do and what you should do.
13:30What I want to do?
13:32Yes.
13:36What will you do?
13:37Will you continue the meeting?
13:41Yes.
13:42I'll do my best.
13:46March 7th...
13:49It's the day before the graduation ceremony.
13:58Is this the last day?
14:00Yes.
14:01The lessons I've been taking for two years will end today.
14:05Two years?
14:06Yes.
14:07Two years, huh?
14:09Why did you say that twice?
14:11Well, I thought it was a long time.
14:13Yes, it was a long time.
14:17You know...
14:18What is it?
14:19Why did you want to become a voice actor?
14:22When I was in elementary school,
14:24my teacher praised me for my reading skills.
14:28That was the first reason.
14:30Then, I got interested in voice acting.
14:32Before I knew it, I felt like I wanted to try it.
14:36But when I told my father, he was against it.
14:39So, I turned against it.
14:41It's simple, right?
14:43But when you do something,
14:45you might need that kind of momentum.
14:48You're right.
14:49The same goes for this application.
14:51Let's do our best with momentum!
14:54If both Aoyama and I pass,
14:56and the destruction of the Cherry Blossom Village is stopped,
14:58it'll be great, right?
14:59Yes!
15:06Welcome back.
15:07I'm home.
15:08What are you doing?
15:10I was looking at the Cherry Blossom Village.
15:12Huh?
15:14I got this.
15:33All right.
15:43The Cherry Blossom Village
15:54It didn't work.
15:58It didn't work.
16:04You're kidding.
16:06I did what I had to do.
16:08I don't regret it.
16:11It's over.
16:15Aoyama.
16:16It's okay.
16:18I'm not crying.
16:20Don't push yourself.
16:22If I cry now, I'm sure I won't be able to do anything.
16:26Even though the Cherry Blossom Village might be gone,
16:29I still have to submit my application.
16:32I don't want to be like that.
16:36Kamigusa-senpai and Mitaka-senpai will graduate soon.
16:41I don't want to make them worry.
16:43I want to send them off with a smile.
16:47It's okay.
16:48Until the graduation ceremony.
16:50When the ceremony is over, I'll cry a lot.
16:53I have a good idea, Kohaku!
16:55What's wrong with that?
16:57I came up with a nice idea to collect more signatures!
17:01It's called the Dress-Up Battle!
17:03I saw the forest animals!
17:05Are you going to wear that to the ceremony?
17:08That's right!
17:09I'm definitely not going!
17:11I'm definitely going!
17:16Please cooperate with the ceremony!
17:19Don't get in the way of the club!
17:22It's a terrible situation.
17:25Nanami is very energetic.
17:27I guess so.
17:32The Dress-Up Battle
17:37It's a big deal.
17:40Nanami, if you dress up, I won't chase you.
17:43Did Misaki tell you that?
17:45It's a different story.
17:50Don't worry too much, Sorata.
17:53But when I think about Aoyama's feelings...
17:56I think Aoyama-san is overdoing it.
18:00But now he wants to be cheerful for Sakura-san.
18:06Then let's do our best.
18:10If Sakura-san is gone, Aoyama-san won't be saved.
18:16The Dress-Up Battle
18:29Ryunosuke-sama!
18:30This is an international phone call from Rita Ainsworth-sama.
18:34I'm busy. Leave it to me.
18:41What's wrong?
18:43I think it's an important request.
18:46I recommend that you answer the phone.
18:54It's me.
18:55Please cooperate with us in our fight against Sakura-san!
19:00Please!
19:02Jin-san is right.
19:04Even though Aoyama-san is trying so hard, we can't give up.
19:10I won't make meaningless efforts.
19:13That's all.
19:14I understand how you feel.
19:17But I'm asking you how you feel right now.
19:22I heard how you felt when you were in middle school.
19:26I love painting, too.
19:28I understand how you feel because you tried to leave Mashiro.
19:32If you're going to be disappointed, you shouldn't wish for it from the beginning.
19:36It's natural to want to think that way.
19:40But...
19:41I'm still painting.
19:45I think of Mashiro as a friend.
19:49It's all thanks to you, Sorata, Nanami, Misaki, Jin, and Ryunosuke.
19:58Ryunosuke...
19:59Sakura-san is an important place to you, too.
20:04Right now, you have real friends who won't abandon you or betray you.
20:11Please cherish those people.
20:20We have to do our best today, too!
20:22Yeah!
20:23Oh, that first-year student!
20:28He was the one who wrote a survey for Yaboron during the school festival.
20:32I'm sure he'll help us!
20:35Um...
20:36Do I have to sign this, too?
20:39Huh?
20:40I wrote it on a notebook in the computer room, but it was on the homepage.
20:46Huh?
20:50This is it.
20:51It was in this classroom.
20:53Look at this, too!
20:54There was a link posted on the school's website.
20:56It's easy to understand what's going on.
20:59Could this be...?
21:00Isn't it obvious?
21:01There's only one person who can do this!
21:06Sora-san!
21:09Sora-san!
21:10Don't come near me!
21:12What are you doing?
21:13It's a notebook in the computer room.
21:16Thank you so much!
21:18The programmer's job is to make the impossible physical work possible.
21:23Anyway, get out of my way!
21:25If you're doing this, you should have told me!
21:28That's right!
21:29Why didn't you tell me?
21:31Programmers work quietly.
21:35All right!
21:36Now I can see the hope!
21:37Drago, you should wear a costume and sign it tomorrow!
21:40No!
21:41I don't want to!
21:58I don't want to!
21:59I don't want to!
22:00I don't want to!
22:01I don't want to!
22:02I don't want to!
22:03I don't want to!
22:04I don't want to!
22:05I don't want to!
22:06I don't want to!
22:07I don't want to!
22:08I don't want to!
22:09I don't want to!
22:10I don't want to!
22:11I don't want to!
22:12I don't want to!
22:13I don't want to!
22:14I don't want to!
22:15I don't want to!
22:16I don't want to!
22:17I don't want to!
22:18I don't want to!
22:19I don't want to!
22:20I don't want to!
22:21I don't want to!
22:22I don't want to!
22:23I don't want to!
22:24I don't want to!
22:25I don't want to!
22:26I don't want to!
22:27I don't want to!
22:28I don't want to!
22:29I don't want to!
22:30I don't want to!
22:31The sky is full of my dreams
22:35It's like flying between two unlimited skies
22:37Returning from being overwhelmed From being outta control
22:44Ummm...
22:45Oh burn....
22:48Satoru...
22:49Hm? What is it?
22:55I've collected about two-thirds of them.
22:57It's still far from two-thirds, though.
23:02What's wrong?
23:03I like cherry blossoms.
23:05Me too.
23:07Everyone does.
23:08Jin-san, Misaki-senpai, Aoyama, Akasaka...
23:12Even Chihiro-sensei.
23:14Yeah.
23:15That's why I protect them.
23:16That's right.
23:17I'll protect the cherry blossoms.
23:21Together.
23:25That's right.
23:28I want everyone to be together.
23:30I didn't think it would be this hard to collect signatures.
23:33Can we sign, too?
23:35How about we ask Jin to deliver the coins?
23:38That's a good idea!
