Hi I'm Dranzerstorm
You may remember me as a regular contestant on the caption battle contest.
Welcome to Retro Retrospective, my world dedicated to the old guard of the Otaku world; expect some reviews of the old & obscure, and in-depth geeky knowledge with the occasional top ten and I now have a logo.

Little info about me
Well I'm British and I'm in to all things animated and nostalgia.
I've grown up with every cartoon going and have watched hundreds of anime.
Oh and to answer a question I was asked once, no I don't wear glasses in real life, I would wear Loke's sunglasses though.

Chobits Review

I'm just going to keep reviewing, got nothing better to do just trying to stay sane through all this virus nonsense.

Hideki is a college student trying to work his way into University, he dreams of owning a Persocom, an android that has the functions of a PC invented by the same person behind the angels of Angelic Layer, but luck is on his side when he discovers a unique persocom named Chi just lying in the trash who comes with a rather unique system. With his friends baffled by Chi's OS an expert points out that she may be a Chobits, a legendary series of persocoms that have free will. With this new information and Chi seemingly learning as she goes along, the line between human and technology becomes ever more blurred.
This started off cute and remained that way for a while, I dare say that it suits the anime really well but then Clamp went all Clamp on us. Granted this is better written than many of Clamp's sorry attempts at narrative but I was more than satisfied with the early content, it didn't even need to be that much more complex, in fact if it were a web short series I'd be happier for it.
Dub is passable if only for Chi and Sumomo everyone else is average.
Final Verdict: A cute story of an android learning to human muddled by Clamp's terrible narrative and convoluted multiverse, it should've stayed the same as the early episodes.
