The latest series from the female artists’ studio Clamp (X, Cardcaptor Sakura) is another tale about a geeky guy who meets a lovely, submissive female android, in the Hand Maid May/Steel Angel Kurumi mold. Maladroit 18-year-old Hideki Motosuwa leaves his family’s farm in Hokkaido to attend prep school in Tokyo. Hideki is a pleasant, somewhat hysterical character who falls in love with every girl he sees. When he arrives in the city, he discovers Persocoms (female robots), but can’t afford one. He conveniently finds a very cute one in a trash heap, but she can only say “Chi.” Hideki’s neighbor Hiromu and his whiz-kid friend Minoru say Chi may be a Chobit, a super-Persocom they thought was just an urban legend. Chi is blank-faced and utterly passive, and American audiences may wonder why women artists would continue this sexist genre. (Rated 16 and older: nudity, sexual humor, tobacco use) –Charles Solomon

Hideki moved out of the country from a farm and into the city life of Tokyo to attend prep school. He is a very desperate lonely guy who really wants a girl even if it’s a android. To prove it he gets a female Persocom out of the teash cause he can’t afford one. This persocom can only say “Chi” his neighbor and friend say Chi maybe a “Chobit” a super persocom but I wouldn’t care how super it is I wouldn’t be that horney of a man to have even a robot girl it’s so pathic and sad.

This has got to be the best manga i’ve read so far but i havent bought the dvds yet but i want to really really bad! I only started reading Chobits for 2 days and im already wallpapering everything on my computer with Chobits wallpaper! I 1st came across the Chobits manga when i was lookin for Gundam manga at the bookstore near my house. When i saw the side of the manga i read the wordz Chobits and it sounded a little strange so i turned it down but when i took a second look i saw Chi’s face. Her face was so damn cute!!! and alluring too[] it pulled me into reading 1/4 of the manga before i had to buy it.. I didnt realize shoujo stuff was so good. Itz deep and funny and all those other things except action but i dont really mind(I get too much action from the Gundam and Ranma mangas i got). Im psyched and hyped about gettin the dvds and the other volumes. If i did watch the anime i’d probably give it 5 stars!…

Chobits is an absolutely awesome series about a world in which personal computers are built in the shape of human beings. Motosuwa Hideki is the hilarious main character, and the fun of this series is watching how he reacts to the situations he’s put in. Apart from Hideki’s antics, the show seems to have strong 70′s themes, including a decidedly funkay opening sequence, and equally afro-licious music throughout the actual show.
Sadly, the awesomeness doesn’t last through the whole series. About midway through, the writers begin slapping you with one unforeshadowed shock after another, until it becomes impossible to take the series seriously, and to top it off, the last three episodes are just “flashback episodes” where they re-air what they’ve already showed you. I can forgive one epidode like that, but come on, three? In a row!? The series is only 27 epidodes long, for crapping out loud, and three of em just go to waste? What a ripoff! In short, buy this series, worship the first half of it, and then cry because the second half is such a let down. The Almatty has spoken. Oh, and as always, WATCH THIS SHOW IN JAPANESE OR DIE!!!11

I started to get into manga and I knew that Borders had the best selection of manga and I looked through it all and started to read Chobits, I was hooked. The comic mishaps of Hideki and his new Persocom Chi are priceless. Chis is so cute, especially because she has no idea how she’s supposed to act. Anyways, I was looking for anime DVD’s and I happened upon this specific one. I bought it w/o a 2nd thought and I have yet to regret it. I would recommend this to anyone who likes fantasy/humor/love stories. ENJOY!!
P.S. Chi is totemo kawaii!
