Chobits - Persocom (Vol. 1) [DVD]

This first DVD covers much of the first manga, with extra details, like what Hideki did BEFORE the events in the manga (he worked on a farm). It shows him moving into the city, meeting Hiromu with Sumomo(Plum), his landlady - Ms Hibiya, finding Chi in the trash and, of course, going to Minoru for help. There are a few DVD extras, such as the art gallery and Non-Credit Opening, but with only four episodes available on the DVD, I am slightly disappointed.It's funny as Hell, they gave Sumomo lots of screen time (which is great because I love Plum) and the episode about underwear had me laughing so hard it felt like my heart stopped, but many anime series are coming out with at least five or six episodes on the first DVD THEN decreasing it to four or three episodes on the rest that follow. With only four episodes and TWO extras, there is not a lot being offered. It was GOOD, but they could of easily burned more onto the DVD.Many anime series, like Love Hina or Please Teacher! have also kept the number of episodes per DVD down to four or three, but they make it up with lots of extras.Buy used - if you can(and only if you are a fan of CLAMP or Chobits)!Is it just me or is Wendee Lee in everything now?

This is a really funny anime. The box is just magnificent...it has beautiful pictures of Chi and Hideki on the outside and also a few other pictures of Chi. It also comes with a stationary kit...but it's not that great...it's plastic. -_- ...haha..oh well...it's alright. It's pink and white. The dvd is very good...it contains 4 eppys of the series. It includes a large picture of Chi in the dvd, when you open it up....it's very funny, has a little bit of sexual humor...not that bad...and Chi is just the darnest most cutest this you'll ever see. ^^Overall, every this is nicely done here. If you want a new anime series to watch, pick up this one...i guarantee you'll like it.

This was an old Favorite of a Girl Friend, and it really has a lot more depth to the story (though some of it will puzzle those not used to the anime universe) than just a simple story about a high appliance. It really explores the feelings of emotions and how people can often be dazzled by the appearance of fancy, and how too often we allow those emotions to overwhelm our common sense. Everyone should have their own Persacom.

I was worried this was going to be a cheesy anime but I loved it and it made me laugh! I was supposed to save it for a rainy day but watched all the episodes as soon as it came in the mail! Very cute and good quality! Very happy with this order!

A nice change of pace from X, also from CLAMP. A light-hearted show with nothing all that offensive besides a few sex gags. Perfect entertainment for girls and guys. The animation is crisp and the show is well paced and funny. The critic from Amazon.com is TOTALLY wrong, it's not sexist in the least. It's too silly to offend anyone and it's a rather sweet idea. The critic seems to be using the idea that Chi is some submissive sex toy, which she's not. Pick up the DVD and judge for yourself !

wonderful series. i remember falling in love with the artwork of this series before ever watching or reading it. great purchase for a collector since it came with the original limited edition stationary set as well as the entire dvd series.

Dream-Team CLAMP(X, Cardcaptor sakura) Have yet again come up with an amazing, beautiful and charming anime. Chobits makes you wish you had one of those persocoms, I totally love it.Chi, the leading charecter, is an adorable persocom found by Hidekou in a dumpster.The series is funny, sexy and soooooooooooooooooooooo smart, you just can't stop wondering where do clamp get these amazing ideas.The box comes with a cute stationary kit, with a pencil, rubber and other stuff.you will totally love this intellegent series.

It's so GREAT and Kawaii!! And cool Series Box and Stationery Kit!! The DVD is Excellent clear animed picures. It's about a 18 year old male who fail an exam and go to Toyko to take it over. Then he saw a Persocom then wanted to buy it but he can't because it cost too much. Then one night he found a Persocom, Chi, but there are still sercet about her past..(I don't want to spoil u too much, but I'm so hyper >_<) ^_^; And that's where the episode start! ^-^
