Hmm, I wonder if the CD left behind at the dumpster had to do with anything.
Was just thinking, isn't Chi super heavy? She suddenly gotten lighter after powering up?

Anyway loving this show so far. Though Hideki could mature up a little :/

I would think PCs would have to be pretty heavy, think of how much a full sized tower weighs and then add all of the robotic parts that makes everything move....

Maybe the cd that was left behind was back-up data? All of the things she had previously learned? And that's why Hideki has to teach her everything again? Hmm

well people are pretty heavy either way, especially when they're not moving... robots or not. heavier than a computer anyways.

So, Chii is a legendary persocon called Chobits.
Very nice, and that dress really suits her. She became cuter! D:

I'm getting hooked up in this series lol.
Nice episode.

Of all the things this show has been so far, I count 3: 1. Swooningly cute, 2. Blushingly inappropriate, and 3. Gut-bustingly hilarious.

4/5 Very interested where this show will go ^_^

That was so heartwarming!

So, the mystery unfolds as she appears to be a machine without a ghost!

And Hideki gives her a name, which Chi clearly understands the import of, after all, something without a name cannot be loved!

Nice episode, really great and mysterious how it all comes to the point that she's unique, lets see what they'll find out! I wonder what that small disk that was dropped at the garbage pile actually had to do with Chi.

The little guy is the wise old man.
I loved the bit where Chi's aping him while he's trying to figure out how he can teach her things.
Your mean should be an even bell curve only if you watch every show that comes out. Having a high-slung mean doesn't mean you're rating improperly. It can also mean you're selecting shows well to watch mostly things you enjoy.

Maybe her memories in that floppy disk (ep1)?
And I'm still waiting until male persocom appeared...

This maybe old but it's enjoyable XD

I think I remember that being explained (not sure when). The persocoms/chobits (whatever the hell's the difference) are extremely heavy when they are in the off-state, and they become much lighter when they are in the on-state.

I may be wrong

but I doubt it.

I liked the ending when Minoru determines Chi has built-in learning software, when her eyes start recording and she reads back Hideki's number is touching, she's got plenty of potential, she just needs to unlock it by learning, instead of loading.

Good episode, but the "don't fall in love" warning at the end was a bit cliche.

So Chi is quite capable after all. Definitely enjoyed the infos in this episode and there was already some foreshadowing that things won't be as lighthearted all the time.

Not surprising to see that it's a very special type of persocom, and he absolutely doesn't have to fall in love with her... I'm sure that he will.

Pretty good episode I thought, though the idea of persocoms still doesn't sit right with me. It just feels a bit sleazy.

Oh well, I was too busy laughing at super-realistic high-powered android computers with RGB connections, Minidisc drives, twenty second loading screens and banks of crunching hard disks. The future ala 1997 XD

Hmm, I think persocoms are based on our current modern era mobile phones that can do almost everything a computer can do nowadays. The only difference is it doesn't have a programmable personality, and it's not in a form of a cute girl/woman. lol

Oh my god, I freaked out when Minoru told Hideki that he shouldn't fall in love with Chii. I'm not ready for this, my heart cannot handle it.

Wow this Minoru guy probably spends his days trying to hack NASA. I thought he'd be more of an asshole but turns out he is a loveable character. Want to know more of his connections too. Maybe main maid-san is like a mother to him?? Probably why the love statement he said? (not incest love btw)

Loved Chii's learning skill here too. It will snowball into something unsafe for sure, want to see how that will go.

This anime is fun so far.
