Sorata Kanda

Sorata Kanda is the main protagonist of Hajime Kamoshida's romantic comedy light novel and anime series The Pet Girl of Sakurasou. He is a high school student who was kicked out of the standard dormitory after he refuses to let go of an abandoned stray cat. He transfers into the titular Sakura Dormitory, a place filled with geniuses, and initially feels out of place in his new home. He becomes the caretaker of Mashiro Shiina, a young world-class artist who is incapable of taking care of herself. Sorata later gains the attention of Nanami Aoyama, a ponytail-wearing tsundere classmate who has feelings for him.

In the wiki, the series is best associated with Mashiro and the International Saimoe League, wherein a prominent faction of Chinese voters representing the series keeps her chances of winning a tiara alive. Naturally, the main protagonist also benefits from these voters. Sorata has has made nine ISML appearances, including two male exhibitions in 2012 and 2013, but for much of his ISML career he is perennially eliminated within the last three periods of the regular season.

Sorata finally made his big break in ISML 2020 when he won his first award, the topaz exhibition ring, and reached the playoffs for the first time. Then, in 2021 he became the 26th pendant winner after he triumphed in the Ruby gem round over top contender Kirito -- a testament to Sakurasou's enduring presence in the tournament, especially since the show's other three main representatives have won awards on that year before him.
