Sum it up in a Sentence:
In a Groundhog Day-esque series of events, the main character learns about himself and his friends.
Main Description
The nameless main character finds himself in a loop -- repeating the same events over and over, but each in a different way.
The main character is on a journey to have a perfect college life with great friends and great success, but it met with failure every time. The girl of his dreams, Akashi, seems disinterested and his closest friends, Ozu, seems like his worst enemy.

- Time of Eve -- Both of intelligently made, even if this one is less about comedy
- Katanagatari -- Both have out-of-the-norm art styles
Personal Opinions
Grashlok
First, the art style of the anime and its direction may not be for some. It's hard to describe other than just saying "artsy", which doesn't do it justice. The first episode, I felt, was especially off putting simply because of how fast many of the characters spoke and how fast the art in the anime was moving. It wasn't so much as overwhelming as it was just different.
While it might be Groundhog Day-esque, it isn't a copy of the movie by any means. Nor is it a play on the same day-to-day routine the film had.
The Tatami Galaxy is first and foremost a story about growing. Every character in this anime are as dynamic as ever. It really is a treat to see all the different characters in myriad situations that they may or may not have gotten themselves into the first time around. It is also one of the few college anime out there and, even if you've never been to college, it has something for you if you've ever looked to pave a new foundation for the rest of your life.
The drama is light and the anime is very feel-good leaving you satisfied. Overall, it's just a good watch. I would recommend it to anyone.
