Chobits, by CLAMP
Jul. 1st, 2007 10:59 pmChobits, v1-8 (complete). Technical problems meant I read volume 2 last, but the others in order. I did like this, for all that I go on for the next few paragraphs about some of my issues with sex and gender in it; I liked the art, I liked the characters and I liked the worldbuilding, actually, which managed to do an excellent job of supporting a plot which really is rather shaky if you’re callous enough to look at it objectively.
( Chobits is in the venerable tradition of electronic significant others for the slightly geeky )
I do want to read more CLAMP manga. The art in RG Veda does my head in, and I’ve yet to find anything earlier than volume 7 in X/1999. I’m circling round xxxHolic and Tsubasa at the moment – xxxHolic looks more interesting, but reviews etc suggest Tsubasa may work better in the long run. What I really want to do is track down Clover.
