Yas, the Angelic Layer connection is there! Love love love it! Love finding about Chi, about who she was and who her twin is. Loved that the manager finally spoke up and explained it all to Hideki. We see a lot of conversations with Freya and Chi and I loved those though I also cried so much because it was so heartbreaking. I loved how the manager and Freya switched, we see Chi and Freya talking and then go back to the same story continuing with Manager and Hideki.
Oh, but those guys in black (who I ship so much because they are just adorable, though the guy is my fav as he seems to be more understandable about things) are on the hunt.
That ending. OMGGGGGGG!!

Will Chi find that special someone just for her? I do love the storyline! It made me smile at many different points.

Chobits is one the most memorable mangas of the early 20th century. Exploring the relationships that can be formed between humans and persocons, Chobits takes you to the heart of mending a broken heart anew. Chi, as she is named by Hideki, a rebooted persocom learns to interact with the world like a newborn. She slowly learns words other of "chi" and cares for her master Hideki. Hideki comes to care for Chi as time passes and learns of her mysterious past, the shadowy figure and the circumstances that lead him to finding her.

Originally I read Chobits as a child and found the characters and the story cute, romantic and simple. Today as an adult, I found it much less compelling. The characters design flawed, the image of the ideal woman could or are perceived as and the a very simplistic dialogue with nothing to show for. I would recommend X/1999 instead if you are looking for something from CLAMP.
