Archive for the 'Chobits' Series

On his way home one evening, Hideki Motosuwa stumbles across a Persocom in the form of a beautiful girl with long blonde hair lying against a pile of trash bags. He first thinks this to be a murder but, realizing she was a Persocom, he carries her home. Upon turning it on, she instantly regards Hideki with adoration. The only word she seems capable of saying is “chi”, and thus he names her Chi. Although Chi does not appear to have any programs installed in her, Hideki’s friends surmise that she must have some sort of learning program installed, judging from her behaviour.

A major part of the plot involves Hideki attempting to teach Chi words, concepts, and appropriate behaviours, in between cram school and work. At the same time, Chi seems to be developing feelings for Hideki, at an emotional depth, which Persocoms are not supposed to possess, and Hideki struggles with his feelings for her. The series explores the nature of Persocoms, human interactions with them, and the nature of love.
