Chiiiiiii


I added another anime to Netflix that I thought would be good, and I got completely hooked on it. Name of anime: Chobits.

Centered around the life of Hideki Motosuwa, he is a held back student trying to qualify to be in a university by studying at a prep school in Tokyo. He dreams of having a persecom: a computer in the form of a person (hence name). He didn't think his dream would be granted when he finds a persecom in the form of a beautiful girl with long blonde hair lying with a pile of garbage bags. After carrying her home and turning her on, she instantly adores Hideki and can only say the word "chi" which becomes her name. After trying to have her analyzed twice and having six persecoms crash in the attempt, it is confirmed that Chi is a custom-built persecom. It was even suggested that Chi could be one of the Chobits: a type of persecom that is able to have its own free will and possess emotions. Though it's a possibility, it's only a rumor.

As the series progresses, Hideki teaches Chi many words, concepts, and different behaviors. As this happens, Chi slowly begins having mysterious functions come out and even starts developing feelings for Hideki that she's not supposed to have. Even Hideki slowly starts having feeling for Chi as well despite the experiences his friends had with persecoms. Could Chi be one of the Chobits?

This anime is a very cute romantic comedy and of course very hilarious. Really want anyone who has read this to definitely watch this anime.
