chobit

19-year-old Hideki Motosuwa is your typical Tokyo teenager. Dead end job, cheap-ass perants, and just got regected from Tokyo U. Persocoms are the newest technology, and anyone whose anyone has one. So of course Hideki wants one. But the problem? He has no money. So when he finds a disgarded persocom in the trash, he naturally picks it up. But when he activates his new find, he sees some problems. Her voice card is broken, she has no OS, and she doesn't seem to know anything. Hideki asks his friends for help, and all they can tell him is that Chi-his persocom-could be a Chobit, or a legendary computer. A story about life, love, and sadness, a touching manga that shows you the lights and darks of today's technology.
