Summary: Funny and at times touching (educational too!)
Review: This is a very funny and enjoyable series. Chi is probably the most kawaii non-child character I've seen in 20+ years of watching anime. If I had to rank the "maid" series that have been released in the U.S. it would be: 1 - Chobits, 2 - Mahoromatic, 3 - Kurumi, 4 - Handmaid May.The Official Amazon reviewer labels it as sexist and, superficially, it is. However, the only really passive female in the story are the Persocoms (e.g. Person(al) Computers) who are programmed that way. The human females are not particularly passive for anime. The only real idiot is the guy, Hideki. Considering that Chi starts out intellectually/emotionally as essentially an amnesiac child with a one-word vocabulary ("Chi") - no wonder she's rather passive - she makes significant strides throughout the series. In fact, this is one of the most enjoyable aspects of the story as we watch her develop social skills and her own needs and desires. The first few episodes serve as a sort of primer on Japanese, as Hideki teaches Chi greetings, names of common objects, and such. There is some ecchi content (I would rate this somewhere between PG-13 and R - there's more naughtiness than outright sexuality) but I otherwise highly recommend this series.

Summary: you'll love it
Review: This is my favorite anime series. It's very cute, the characters are surprisingly believable and often funny, and the plotlines are often creative. Chi, a lifesize robot who looks like a young girl, is found by Hideki, an 18 year old guy who didn't get into college so has to go to cram school. Chi's different from all the other robots, or persocoms, she's very naive and mysterious. She's capable of learning and is much like a young child exploring her surroundings. Her childlike learning process is very believable, and you won't be able to help but fall in love with her. Hideki reflects Chi's naivety nicely, as he's from the country and new to the hustle and bustle of city life. The similarities and contrasts between the two are very well done. They're an unlikely but awesome duo. The show just gets rounded out with more and more well done characters, such as the easily scared Sumomo, who's about 8 inches tall. Really, it's a very cute show, and lots of fun to watch. My only complaint is it does occassionally get sexual for ratings sake. It's never beyond PG-13 stuff (and is rated 16+ by Pioneer), but it's usually not necessary. Oh well, it's still a great show, I can't recommend it enough.

Summary: wow
Review: This DVD has lost the seriousness and mistique of the book seiries, although very funny. there is great music and the animation is supurb. its not for people who want action out of movies. instead chobits features a unique sense of humor and a growingly interesting storyline. if you are looking for action you should stick with something like tenchi muyo or samurai deeper, but if your looking for a romance, something funny i believe you've found it. there is some sexual referance but not to worry its not all that bad. overall i believe that this is the best running anime series avaliable.

Summary: Not in the "future". Not sexist.
Review: For everyone that thinks this is in the future, it's not. It's an alternate universe, meaning that it's the same time period as us, just on another world. They live the same way almost, just are a lot more... not to say smarter but... a lot more progressed then us. They are still humans, they are still in our time, or whenever the series was made, they are not in the future. Just an alternate universe; almost an alternate Earth that is a lot more progressed. This has to be one of the least sexist things out there. You want sexist? Watch FLCL (also known as Fooly Cooly). On FLCL, they have (...) mags that they just cut out the privates with black boxes. They also have a 12-15 year old girl screwing a 40 year old in the first episode, I think. And this was aired on Cartoon Network, which wouldn't even let Cowboy Bebop air (...) where two gay guys were kissing on a bed with their shirts off, and a sheet over them. Now, you may ask how that has anything to do with Chobits, and it has nothing to do with them! But I just wanted to show you irony. Now, Hideki may be perverted, but does he ever get Chii to have sex with him? No. Does he ever make her serve him, make her worship him? No. Chii is very reserved and kind and submissive because she knows no other ways. She can not remember her past, or how to act. So she doesn't lash out or anything. Also, Hideki is very kind to her and treats her like a person. They find love, which is probably the purest of all between anyone, since it's between a percecome (can't spell) and a human. You may think a robot/computer and human can't go together, but they go against all odds and do. It's one of the greatest things in anime. This has to be the BEST anime for showing true love, not just 'aww I love you' and a week later, they're divorced. Chii and Hideki have a very strong, true love that most people don't even know of being possible.

Summary: A must buy
Review: This is one of the best anime series I have ever seen. I bought it with out any prior knowledge of the series (I do this from time to time). After the first episode I was engulfed in the series. I look on my anime shelf and see Yu Yu Hakusho vol 1-19, All 3 seasons of the Slayers, Record of the Lodoss war, Inuyasha, Ah! My goddess,Silent Mobius, and Sailor Moon S, Super S, and Stars. Why are those titles important? Simple. Chobits blows them all away. If you like romance this is an excellent series. It's similar to AMG, but it has a lot more comedy. Think of the comedy in the Japanese language versions of Sailor Moon, mixed with the romance of AMG and you have Chobits. So to end this review. If you like comedy/romance, or are just looking for a good change Then Chobits is perfect for you.

Summary: This is just the beginning
Review: Don't be fooled by the semi-innocent yet sexual persona on the surface of this portion of the story. So far this series is starting a crack-up & light hearted comedy of a boy and his 'droid. But... there are some subtle clues placed here and there that echo of a mysterious and possibly painful future. Remember them. Almost all the characters in the series get fitting introductions in this part of the series. There is no such thing as filler.

Summary: Charles Solomon SUCKS!....I 2nd That!
Review: This is a great series that can be enjoyed by fans of either shoujo or shonen series! Enough has been said about this series so I will not repeat a review that you might have already read. What I will do is complain... Frankly I am getting quite tired of Mr. Solomon's reviews on Anime. He trashes just about every other one of them that he reviews. What is your problem man? If you are going to give us your reviews on Anime, do it in an unopinionated fashion. Save "your opinions" for the editorial column in your local paper. Amazon should seek another Anime reviewer, can you not see that this guy could quite possibly be hurting your sales? Check out his harsh reviews on The Devil Lady and Please Teacher, two recent and highly recommended series.

Summary: It's adorable and addictive
Review: Ok, I didn't want to like Chobits. I sneered at it from afar. Then I watched it, and now I'm hooked. #@&$@! Chobits tries to be a lot of things at once... a love story, a drama, a fanservice comedy. What is amazing it that it manages to stay so interesting. About the only negative thing I can say here is that Chobits deals frequently with sexual subject matter. But if you have access to cable TV then you and your kids have already seen enough to make this lightweight as far as adult subject matter. @#$@! I just can't find much to criticize. I give up. I admit it. I like Chobits. A lot. I want Chobits merchandise, and I want more Chobits DVDs to come out. Syrup never tasted sooo gooood.
