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

Chobits, What a Great Anime!.......2007-04-14
I have seen a lot of Anime in my time from Love Hina to Ai Yori Aoshi, but I never saw anything like Chobits. The story about Hideki, a farm boy who has a habit of talking to himself and is trying to get into college, moves to Tokyo and finds a very cute Persocom in the trash. But when he turns it on, it only says "Chi". His neghbor and friend say that it could be a Chobits, a legendary Persocom. I have to say if you haven't seen Chobits, You need to check it out.
Chobits,the Ultimate Series from Clamp.......2005-10-06
Hi,everyone!I actually didn't purchase this because I have the whole dvd set,actually.Chobits is basically the ultimate manga that anyone could find.And guess what-you NEVER get tired of it!Okay,now first of all,the manga has alot of Chi's nudity,and a few strange words(actually,all the pervertedness is book 1,part of book 2,and about 3 pages in book 4)but the anime is okay if your parents like the silly jokes like when Hideki was scared,he asked Shimbo to sleep with him.Well,Chobits is a great series,and it deserves 80 thousand art books!
I am warning you,Chobits is addicting like drugs to druglords.Maybe an hour after you get the anime or the manga,you will be talking about it NONSTOP and will do all you can to get everything for it.You can take me as the example-I made a Chobits website,asked Carvel to make me a Chobits birthday cake,make Chobits birthday cards,I'm telling you,it's extremely addicting.And if you dislike it,don't worry,I know that you'll turn around sometime ^_^.(Chobits is more oriented for girls even though it is pointed at boys,but you can read it if you're a boy,I really don't care because it's your decision ^_^)
Hideki probley's brain washes girls to fall in love with him.......2005-06-15
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.
Wonderful And Intoxicating.......2005-04-22
I am a huge fan of Anime, as well as a fan of the artist team Clamp. Upon first entering the world of Chobits, I was a little reluctant to delve too deep, the sugary sweet overtones were more than I thought I would be able to handle. But taking into consideration that I am a huge fan of Cardcaptor Sakura, and X. I decided to give it a go.
It was wonderful and intoxicating, I became hooked right from the first frame. Having been raised on a farm for the first thirteen year of my life(like the main character) I found it overly funny to watch our hero manage to humiliate himself time and again over the smallest things.
I became hooked on the humor, and the ever so subtle way the undercurrents of the show begin to come to surface.
For those of you who are wondering if you should take a chance and buy this; then take the time, make up your mind, and buy the DVD, you will become addicted, and will want the rest of them.
I love the fact that this DVD features Anamorphic Widescreen, both English and, Japanese Language. as well as subtitles. I am very glad I didn't let the cover scare me off, it is one of the most satisfying shows I have watched in a long, long time.
