"Tokyo is abuzz with persocoms - humanoid computers that are virtually perfect. The socially and technologically inept Hideki is dying to get his hands on one. When he finds Chi abandoned in the trash, she's cuter than any current model he's ever seen, but when he gets her home and turns her on, she has no data and only a single learning program installed. While Hideki puts his whole heart into teaching Chi the ins and outs of humanity, a mystery unfolds as a dark secret within her awakens"--Container.

Your not-so-typical robot girl meets guy
submitted by marielle on July 14, 2011, 11:18pm
When I tried to get this into my former anime club's lineup, it was summarily dismissed as "robot porn." And in some ways it is a little bit of a male fantasy.
But Chobits was written by women, not men, and despite the boy meets impressionable (quite literally!) beautiful robot girl premise, the story is touching. It's not about sex; it's about love. It's not about robots; it's about personhood.
Chobits was my first real anime and I'm really quite fond of it.
