Hajime Kamoshida's romantic comedy series inspired 24-episode TV anime, game, manga

revealed in the eighth volume's postscript last October that he will end the story in two more volumes.

The light novel series inspired a 24-episode television anime series last year. The school romantic comedy revolves around a high school sophomore named Sorata Kanda who lives in Sakura-sou, the dormitory for problem children at Sorata's school. One day, Mashiro Shiina — a cute girl who happens to be also a cosmopolitan, brilliant artist — moves into Sakurasou.

Sorata thinks to himself that he should protect Mashiro from the weirdos at Sakurasou, but Mashiro has a surprising secret: she has no idea how to take care of herself. She gets lost if she goes out, and her room is a complete mess. Sorata's dorm mates designate him as the "master" of Mashiro, and thus, an ordinary boy and a brilliant girl must live like "a master and his pet."

licensed the series in North America.

Kamoshida launched the light novel series in 2010. The story also inspired a manga series that Hōki Kusano started in 2011 as well as a drama CD. The series also PlayStation Portable and PS Vita in February.
