The bakery scenes were cute. I wonder, what did happen when all of the Persocoms looked at Chi...?

Chii is SO CUTE! I just can't get over how cute Chii is! And Hideki seems to be maturing a little bit. I certainly didn't expect him to let Chii keep her money. Aw. Preview looks interesting, especially the shot with Chii with labels all over her body like "01" and "Chobit"

mhh, EMP Chi paralysed the other persocoms in the surrounding.

I think the job at the bakery fits her better

It was cute when Hideki came to pick up Chi from the bakery and she acted like a happy dog ; )

What's happening to Chii? And what's up with that book?
And Chii somehow managed to freeze several persocoms at once somehow..
Great anime so far, one of my favourites!

Lol goddamn. Chii has some serious powers right there. I wonder what she really is. Probably some goddamn super power persocon or something.

Chii is learning more and more each day, which is good. She got a job woo! That's very nice on Hideki to let Chii keep her salary.

And wtf, what's up with Yumi man? She's got some mysterious background about persocons.

Yeah I'm positive that Yumi used to work there. On a completely different, for all the dub watchers: the bakery manager is STEVE BLUM!!!! :D:D:D

Nice ending. Made me want to squeal like a little girl, which I am not in any way, shape or form. But I'm digging this show ^_^

Same here! She mentioned she baked a lot of sweet things but was no good with regular food in the last episode!

And there was probably a persocom involved in some way too!

Chi got a job, yey, but I thought she'd/wanted her to get a job at the pub with Hideki. Well, a bakery has its merits!

This anime is starting to get pretty good. Chii acts more human than the other persecoms kind of.

How the story book seems to explain chii's life is pretty cool. I think its pretty cool how they kind of foreshadow, if that is what the book means. I havent seen this show before so im not for certain.

I think the picture book is just a complication... I think she got the idea from it that when Hideki falls in love with her, she'll have to go away somewhere... and I don't think (from what her... guardian(?) said last episode) that's true at all. I think she'll change somehow when she finds love...
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.

I have a feeling Chi used to be Yumi-chan's person before Hideki, and for some reason either her parents didn't want her or Chi did something bad like glow, and Yumi-chan decided to throw her away.


"Chi has job now, Is Hideki happy?" Chi looks so cute working, and wow Hideki let her keep the money. Well that's one thing that Hideki won't worry about, he can focus on bills, food, and college, Chi buys her own stuff now, including "pantsu" ^^

Can you feel your sugar levels rising





Though could anyone explain to me what the heck Chii was doing the night before?? What was with the "grand fall" she was supposed to do had Hideki not come? Everything after overshadowed that particular event, but I still want to know what the hell that was and what it was for.

That last scene was really sad. If the story in the book parallels with whatever is Chii's situation, and if we add the warning to Hideki from that kid during the first episode, then I think she's probably thinking about the time when she'll have to leave if they both fall in love.

The engineer in me wonders whether a robot that can leap from lamppost to lamppost so precisely would actually be possible. You'd need an incredibly powerful image processing software and CPU to determine the size, shape and relative position of the target in combination with arrays of sensors measuring wind speed, temperature, and pressure which could be used to calculate the precise amount of force required by each motor in its body to get it from A to B. Still,it doesn't seem impossible..

This episode had me in tears throughout its entire duration. The hugging scene with Hideki and the manager was so adorable. The ending with Hideki wanting Chii to keep her money also made me feel like my heart was about to explode. Hideki is so awesome

Wow, things really went crazy. I have an idea as to what is going on but only time will tell when it is there to share.

I like the development here to, Chii now has a job and well, time to get working for some money. The two still make an awesome pair.

It's a shame the peepshow molester didn't get mangled in the explosion. If you own a robot like her, who's still naive and only just learning about the realities of the world, you should take more precautions against that kind of manipulation.

Combined with the mention of her being a "chobit" from earlier and the EMP effect on the other persocoms, I'm guessing that Chii is a centralising unit of sorts, maybe linked to a stationary central computer.
