Chobits

Chobits is presented beautifully. Any normal person would fall in love with Chi by the end of the second episode (she's just so cute). Each character has a distinct personality, and they all feel different from each other. I swore that these were real people and not just animated characters. The characters are that good.

You action Dragonball Z freaks and mecha freaks may not enjoy this anime much at first, but just wait until around episode 20, when the mood of the series suddenly changes drastically. A story this well written would be very hard to pull off, but CLAMP did it without a glitch. Like I said before, though, action junkies may be a bit turned off.

Once again, this is where "Chobits" shines. The story is well written, and moves slowly, but smoothly with every episode. The episodes do not have continuity like Dragonball Z. Each episode has its own theme (Chi goes out, Chi goes to work, Chi helps... see a pattern here?). There is a story running in the background of the whole series though. It begins as watching Chi as she becomes more intelligent and learns more throughout the series, as well as her forming relationship with Hideki.

Wait, a Persocom and a human? I won't give away much, but this sub plot is written and presented beautifully, but gives the impression that it will lead to a not-so-happy ending. Let's hope not, though. Then once it reaches to around Episode 20, the story changes drastically. Plot is just suddenly thrown into the viewer's face, and leaves them gasping for air, and wondering, "What's going on?"

All this does, though, is make you even more excited about the next episode. There is never an episode that I didn't like, and never one that didn't make me look forward to the next. This is storytelling at its best people. If I could give any department a perfect 10, it would be the story. Good job, CLAMP!
