5.0 out of 5 stars The title almost tells the story, December 21, 2003

This review is from: Chobits - Love Defined (Vol. 4) (DVD)

This part of the series is almost a lesson on pure love. The good times and the bad. Everybody starts to show their own conflicts over how to handle the technology of the time. Some have been shown to empty their lives into a world of technology and have difficulty with humanity. Others have suffered the loss of loved ones to a fantasy world brought on by that same technology.

Chi starts realizing such things as happiness and begins to act upon a desire to see Hideki happy. Hideki's conflict deepens and he winds up terribly distracted by the apparent moral and philosophical issues with human-machine relations. The comedy makes a bit of a comeback and adds to the story, but the story could hold up on it's own. I would actually give the seris 6 stars from this volume on if I could.

5.0 out of 5 stars Rie Tanaka (Chii) Sings Haunting Chobits 2nd Ending Theme Song, "Ningyo Hime" ("Mermaid Princess"), November 19, 2006

This review is from: Chobits - Love Defined (Vol. 4) (DVD)

In episode 14 "Chi Entertains" on the Chobits - Love Defined (Vol. 4) DVD, the beautiful but sad second ending theme song for Chobits, "Ningyo Hime" ("Mermaid Princess"), is heard for the first time in the series, sung superbly by the Japanese voice actor (seiyuu) for Chii (Chi), Rie Tanaka. Rie Tanaka's Chii from Chobits won Newtype Japan's annual favorite female anime character poll for 2002. Rie Tanaka's Lacus Clyne from Gundam Seed and Gundam Seed Destiny won Newtype Japan's annual favorite female character poll for 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006...

5.0 out of 5 stars Cute and Original! A funny anime! : ), July 14, 2003

I am a huge fan of Clamp's anime. I read the Chobits comic, and I'll have to say the show lived up to my expectations. If you haven't seen it yet, here's the story.

Hideki, an 18 year old who grew up on the countryside, moves to the Tokyo area and discovers Persocoms. He can't even come close to having enough money to buy one. While walking home, he saw what he thought to be a dead person, but was actually a Persocom thrown out. He looks everywhere to find the swich, and finally finds it in a very bad spot. She "wakes up" and all she can say is "Chii", getting her name. With the help of his neighbors Shinbo, Minoru, and the Landlady, Hideki teaches Chii common sense among other things, and she even gets a job.

This volume is as good as the others, including an episode where Hideki and the gang go to the beach, which I found very funny.

Cute, funny, and even sentimental at times, Chobits is everything and more you would want in an anime. It is HIGHLY recommended and I plan on watching it again soon!
