This is the first manga I ever read; a true masterpiece that hooked me immediately and created my manga addiction. The art is beautiful, as is to be expected from anything by CLAMP. The characters are likable, believable, and surprisingly deep. There is a delightful blend of comedy, romance, fanservice, and thought-provoking story. You will laugh, cry, get excited, and think. There truly is something for everyone here.
Chobits has a wonderful story about diversity in relationships- you love who you love, and the happiness you share is what counts, not other people's ideas of what a couple should look like. This is a manga one can read over and over again without ever tiring of it. If you haven't read it yet, get to it right away.
