i've just finished watching the 26th episode of Chobits.. there's technically one more episode (27th) before the whole series ends.. but i suppose 26th to me is like the last one 'cos it had the answers to everything and it's an end in itself.
Chobits is about this persocom (person-computer... or in japanese, literally means computer). it depicts a world with computers which are human-like. Human-like, but not human. anyway, it's about this guy called Hideki Motosuwa who came from a rural Japan to the urban Japan to get into university... but because he didn't pass the entry exams, he goes to cram school to try again next year. He wishes that he has a persocom like most people, but persocoms are very expensive, so he couldn't afford one. It was when he was returning home and wishing he has a persocom that he actually found one by the roadside. The persocom he picked up could only say 'Chiii..' but is a really kawaii looking one. haha.
Anyway, the story is sort of like a journey for the people around Motosuwa and himself to find out about Chi's real identity, as well as to find out more about Chi as well. Chi belongs to the Chobits series who have emotions and can act on their own accord, without the programs (for most other persocoms, they have installed programmes to tell them how to react.) Chi is also on the journey of finding the only person for her. The episode i just watched is SUPER SAD. hehe. it's the only sad episode in the whole series.. 'cos the rest of the episodes are quite funny.
it's a series intended for a male audience 18 and above, but i guess Chobits will appeal to most people, once you overlook some of the mild sexual references in the show :P amyway, they decrease as the show continues.
