Chobits
ちょびっツ
After moving from the countryside into the big city, poor college student Hideki Motosuwa finds himself down on his luck. All he wants is a good job, a girlfriend, and his very own “persocom” - the latest and greatest in humanoid computer technology. Hideki’s luck changes one night when he finds Chi - an adorable, but seemingly broken, persocom thrown out in a pile of trash. After taking her home, Hideki discovers that Chi is more responsibility than he expected - and that there’s much more to his cute new persocom than meets the eye.

清水多香子
SUPPORTINGLike Yumi, Shimizu has had a negative experience with Persocoms in the past. She and her husband recently bought a Persocom, and eventually, she became unimportant to him compared to the Persocom. He spent more and more time with it until he forgot about his wife completely, locking her out of the house one night because he was so enamored with it. Because of this, Shimizu is no longer able to trust human men. Later, she elopes with Shinbo and eventually returns to the prep school, married to Shinbo.
