Romance between a boy and a girl who lacks any sense of independance. Sakurasou is a bit more ecchi harem, but not much, and chobits is more chick flick and it felt somewhat cliche by comparison.
Sakurasou is as close to Chobits as you can get, in story, in tone and overall feel.

Both are about a plain boy who's new in town who stumbles upon a strange girl who can't take of herself. In both, the girl becomes more emotive and self-sufficient, among other things I won't spoil.
The protagonist in Chobits is a bit more perverse than the one in Sakurasou, and Chobits encompasses more genres, however.
