Chobits

[color=hotpink][size=1]Well, I'm pretty sure that the anime series will have basically the same plot as the manga series, it just has to be released. Which probably wont be finished until this time next year. Which really sucks. I hate how you have to WAIT for stuff to come out. I don't think I'll ever see Paradise Kiss volume 5...*sighs*

I don't really like the music on the TV series that much either. The only music that really sticks out to me is the pornographic/sexual music that always plays. I think it's hilarious. And it took a while for the theme song to grow on me. It's too lighthearted for such a deep and emotional series. Of course, the anime is pretty lighthearted, too.[/color][/size]

I really love the manga a lot more than the anime. The anime just gets on my nerves a bit. Like that beach episode... Urgh. Now I sound like I'm complaining! But no, I really do like Chobits, even though I don't like love stories. (<--- So that's how you know it's got to be good! Right?)

[color=silver][font=times new roman][b]Ah yes...Chobits has def. become one of my favorite manga ever...I dont like the anime as much though...

I havent read all of the manga(I have a pre-order for the deluxe edition of the last volume :D ) But I have seen the entire anime series in subs...

Its just alot goofier and doesnt pull at your heartstrings quite as much as the manga does...They made hideki way too silly in the anime...

And while the anime copies alot of the love scenarios they dont have the emotional resonance they posess in the manga...

Chobits is now my second favorite anime/manga. I think the manga is better than the anime. I agree with the fact that its a little watered down, but I still like both. The anime is slowly developing the plot the manga already has, yet the anime is less serious.

[color=hotpink][size=1]I haven't seen that episode yet. It's the first episode of the fourth DVD, which comes out tomorrow. Which I should be getting this weekend (HOPEFULLY). But I know what to look forward to if it's that annoying, lol.

I wonder if there's a reason that they tend to play it down a bit in the anime series?[/color][/size]

I think that Chobits is the best anime ever, because noone has ever done anything like it before. Also it's freakin hilarious and the characters are great. I don't know how anyone could not like Chobits. If anyone says that they don't like Chobits then i want to know why.

I loved both the series and the manga!!! I own a complete set of both and I have to say that the manga is better cause it has a better story. The series is good but they had to add like 3 eps that had nothing to do with nothing... The only thing that was good about them is that they had Chi in them and they were funny(like the rest of the series) I will say that I love watching the anime cause I don't have to read...I hate to read but the manga had me hooked for 3 days after work... and I was so enthralled with it!! Good stuff!! Good stuff!! ^.^

[color=#4B0082]I suppose it was a good while ago now, but I watched the series and also read the manga a bit later. I thought it was a cute story, but sometimes it just seemed like it was trying too hard. Trying to be funny, or trying to be serious, but not quite getting things right. It was entertaining, though not really one of my favorites.

I think the best part of the series, in my eyes, was just watching Sumomo and Kotoko interact. Seeing the two completely opposite personalities bounce off each other was always fun.[/color]

i really like Chobits and i've got the first 3 dvds . I don't really want Chii to go with Hideki but I don't really mind . I mostly watch it for it's humor . I haven't seen any of the manga and have no clue where to buy it but if I did see it then I would definatly get it .

[quote name='OtakuSennen][spoiler']A Chobit is actually a "Super persocom" that has a different effect on other persocoms.. Chi happens to be one of them.[/spoiler][/quote]

Ok sory to burst your bubble, but....[spoiler]Chobits are actually not "Super Persocoms" They are rumered to be Persocoms that have emotions like humans. All though they are Super. Chobits is really just the code name that Elda and Freya's Father nick-named them. It really is a Plural word (meaning more then one) "Chobi" means Little and "Chobits" means more then one Little... Kind of dumb but that is what their Father called them. Thus came the rumer of the Chobits. Not saying that they don't have to power to permantley shut down all persocoms in the world witch Elda(aka Chii) can do..[/spoiler]

I've never seen the manga but the anime despite the interesting plot bored me to death sometimes, especially the search for the underwear store, the never-ending monologues of hidaki and chi's irritating behaviours. And yet i could not just put the anime out of my reach of sight as well, because chi is really cute and the neighbour shinbo too. I am determined to watch the series as a whole but if it goes on like this it can take ages. Hope the anime gets better...For the manga i became really curious as how better it is..

I have just finished watching the First two DVD's of Chobits. I must say that I can't wait for the third and fourth DVDs (which come out soon). The development of Chi has been quite fun to watch, as has the attempted soliloquys of hideki. Chobits is definently something i shall be watching the release dates for very carefully.

As I have said before. I have the complete set of the manga and anime. They both rock!! But I do prefer the manga over the anime. Only cause the manga tells more and the anime could tell more if the took out some of the eps that don't really have anything to do with the story... Like, there is an eps in witch Shimbo is talking to Sumomo about what all has happend to Chii.... All that does is tell you what you already know.... But in the manga they tell more of the story about Chii and Her mom. And the relationship that she had with her sister. And also why she was in the trash..... But how can you just not love watching Chii? I mean really. ^-^

Ok, here are my top unfounded theories for chobits so far:

Kokubunji is either a persocom or a chobit (he has those same eyes as his custom built one)
Chii was built by motosuwa, but he doesn't remember.
Shinbo is an alien


SO here are my top three unfounded theories after seing the first eight episodes.

[quote name='Vagetogt']Wow that would be going in the wrong way.... All of that is wrong.... I have already said what happens in one of my last posts and I won't repet myself...[/quote]
I said that they were UNFOUNDED theories based on the first eight episodes. I know it doesn't turn out like that.
