The first time I watched it, my sister showed me when I was 9 years old (I think)

It has been one of my first animes along with Trinity Seven, The Seven Deadly Sins (I replayed the 1st opening for some reason) Fairy Tail on Netflix (I was a fake fan, and at least I remembered the 2nd and 3rd opening), Ouran High School Host Club, Blood+ and as well of course, Pokemon
And in later years I forgot about it,(at least I remembered the opening) but then my sister remembered something when I was a teen, and I don't know what anime she's talking about, my mind clouded, and she gave me a hint, and then she remembered, and that's Chobits, my long lost memory after years finally refreshed, and I decided to start from the very beginning on Funimation, only a few first episodes are free, and it's in my high school days, and years later apparantly, Chobits is on Crunchyroll, and I know where I left off since Funimation has shut down while the other animes has been transferred

first time I watched it had to be around 2003 or 2004 I was in middle school. I remember going to the front row video(it is a small town version of Block Buster), and the very back of the store was a very small collection of anime on vhs and dvd. I rent chobits and I think inyuasha movie. I did re watch it a few years ago when I bought it on blu ray. I still love it after 22 years.

Lmaoo this is wild. We’re def each other’s variants, because this is exactly what happened to me when I was 7. But I remembered it and never rewatched. This was also my first anime courtesy of my big sister lol.

My bet is somewhen before 2005. I saw my cousin watching it and I loved it.

Idk exactly when, but I know it was before I made my MAL account (which was in 2013) so I’m gonna guess 2011/2012. I wish I wrote down my watched dates back then :/

I thinkkkkkkk I was 8? Like 2nd grade maybe? I definitely found it captivating♡♡ I remember finding out about it by looking at the back of a girly manga that I rented from the school library. I just thought the art was really pretty and tried looking it up online and was surprised about how inappropriate the show was 😂 that didn't stop me from watching it though! And the exact same thing proceeded to happen to me with Rosario no Vampire not too long after.

Around 2003/2004, I found the manga in my older brother's room, and I immediately fell in love with the art style. I LOVED Chii and she's still my icon on a lot of websites and apps.

I watched the anime in 2005 I think and I rewatch it every five years or so. It's so nostalgic. LET ME BE WITH YOU~*~*~

Pretty young, I’m was exposed to the series and it’s opening and OST around the 2010s so probably when I was like around 10 ish or so. This is a pretty nostalgic series for me and there is some stuff I can appreciate even if I don’t love the series. I would still say it’s memorable.

Last November, I came across the opening on YouTube because crunchyroll posted it. I fell in love with the opening and gave the anime a try, and I enjoyed it.

My friend watched it and tried showing it to us and I made fun of him and the show. Got into anime years later, remembered it and watched it. I enjoyed it. Maybe 2011...

i also watched it a few months ago! I always saw it on anime lists and discussions and I had a lot of screenshots and manga illustrations saved onto a pinterest board when i was in middle school but i never got around to watching it until now. I don’t usually like romance or ecchi anime but chobits has a charm to it that i really enjoy.
