Chobits 1

Created/Updated 2002-12-25



After seeing a little bit of Chobits anime at Foothill Anime showing, I felt that the original art must've been pretty neat for a terrible anime like that to actually be somewhat enjoyable; so I ordered some of the manga. Gosh it's cute. I don't think I've ever seen such cute drawings! From comparing the CLAMP style from Card Captor Sakura manga to Chobits manga, I see that it evolves in all positive direction. If you like cute characters, you ought to get this.

Unlike the anime, the story moves much faster and stays on focus. Knowing that, some of the completely off-topic anime episodes like the haunted room episode makes more sense to me. I think anime didn't need to have so many episodes. I would've actually liked it better if they didn't follow the same story at all. The characters are all so cute, I bet they could've done something completely different with them and still end up with a successful anime.
