In the future, personal computers have developed into "Persocons", mobile computers that look like human beings. Hideki Motosuwa, a prep school student, desperately wants to buy a Persocon but cannot afford to. One day he finds a Persocon that has been thrown away and decides to keep it. When he turns on the Persocon, all she can say is "Chii" so he decides to name her that. After a while it starts to become apparent that Chii is more than an average Persocon. Having much better performance, it seems that Chii might be a "Chobit", a type of advanced Persocon rumoured to have independant thought.

CHOBITS iz gr8...hideki is like a bit 2 perverted i guess he der age wen boys fantsies alot...bout chobits anywayz...anyone one else got any views bout it...I fink its gr8 comedy

I think Chobits is at the edge for me. I could easily lose interest in that kind of an anime. Not that I don't like it, or anything, I do. But sometimes it gets really boring throughout an episode, and I don't realize myself spacing out and thinking about other things. Although, some episodes I find especially interesting. Overall, I don't think Chobits would make it on the Top 5 list.

Sadly i never saw this anime. lol But i just might (is providing false hope lol).
