Hideki is your typical 20-year-old slacker. He didn`t get into college straight out of high school, so he`s working a dead-end job, can`t find a girlfriend, and is perpetually broke. If only he had a persocon - a humanoid robot - to keep him company, perhaps things wouldn`t be so bad. The problem with persocons is they are incredibly expensive, and it would take Hideki a lifetime to afford one.

Chobbits is a not a light read, this series deals with human emotions, lost, love, grief, sexual objectifications and true love. If you fail at any moment to shed a tear then you must be made of stronger stuff than me.
