Hello steemians! Welcome to 「Should You Watch?」, a section in where I review anime so you don't have to look for the good ones.
Today we'll be having a look at Chobits, one of the first seinen anime I watched. Let's begin.
This show is about Hideki Motosuwa, a farmboy who wants to get to university in Tokio. Shortly after he gets a flat there, we find that Persocons, basically robots that double as PCs, are ultra popular in this alternate-reality, everyone has one.
Yes, those aren't women on display. Those are actual computers.
Shortly after that, Hideki luckly finds a persocon in the trash (literally) and brings her home. Soon after, shenanigans ensue. And that really is the most fun part of the show: seeing how Hideki and his persocon named Chii learn to live together, and the philosophical question of Should We All Bang Cute Robots?
I mean, look at her.
After all, the character design is handled by CLAMP, a company known for their beautiful designs.
So, in conclusion: Should You Watch Chobits?
If you identify yourself as a straight male, sure, go for it. Surely you'll find something appealing (and Chii is cute AF). I had some female friends watch this show and they didn't like it, at all.
You can watch Chobits both subbed and dubbed on Funimation, so go there if it peaks your interest.
