The stories in Sakura Diaries and Chobits are WAY different, but the theme of "boy comes to big city for school: boy meets 'girl' and doesn't know what to do" is evident in both. Only, instead of his cousin, the object of affection is a persocom, or nearly human robot. It's a great series.

Kirowyn

Both of these series concentrate on a boy who is trying to get through school, and wants to find love as well. The innuenendos they get themselves into are somewhat similar in that they are confused about who they should and shouldn't fall in love with.

The story in Video Girl AI is very much the same as in Sakura Diaries, where boy meets a girl who ends up liking him but he likes someone else, so the girl becomes vengeful and sad. This anime is very good and very short.

Arcardo
Both series have lots of similarities. An average, "unlucky" male who is in love with some girl but the love is not returned. Then there is that cute girl who is in love with the "unlucky" boy but unfortunately her passion is not noticed / not taken seriously. Both series offer the standard mixture of anime humour and romance.

Meet Saji Keisuke, a hormone-heavy teen who's fallen hopelessly in love with Koizumi, a supposed man hater who refuses to give him the time of day. All he wants is to get laid, but all Koizumi wants is to get as far from him as possible! With plenty of love for Koizumi (in his pants?!) and plenty of distractions to keep at bay (such as big breasted Yuki), can our hero manage to get past second base with the girl of his dreams, or is she destined to stay just in his dreams forever?

This is kind of an odd recommendation, but if you like the bizarre humor and a guy who really has NO clue like in Sakura Diaries, Iketeru is the anime for you. It has short episodes and is a decent quality anime.

Momoiro Sisters

Two sisters struggle through the everyday life of a girl. One sister is a pure and innocent high school student with an attraction to a middle school boy. The other sister is the older, naughtier sister who works in an office. Both sisters will face the everyday 'girl' problems in a hilarious way, from sex to breast sizes.

Another short series that plays on guys and the way they think, as opposed to women. This guy just happens to have to deal with a model and his distant cousin. It's a good laugh and the humor is the same.

Hand Maid May

If you like the aspect of one guy having to decide between the affection of multiple females, or being surrounded by them that is evident in Sakura Diaries, Hand Maid May is another great series for that. The difference is, instead of a distant cousin, it's the "girl next door"... literally!
