Character's name: Motosuwa Hideki Character's age: 18 Character's gender: Male Series the character is from: Chobits Point in canon they're being taken from: After the Yumi&Ueda drama but before Yuzuki tries to break into the National Data Bank (... = from the middle of volume 6)
Brief background: Hideki is originally from countryside. He moved to Tokyo to go to cram school and (hopefully) to get to a University. Unfortunately, his parents decided that it was time for him to get independent and he ended up having to work for his living which didn't leave much time for studying. He worked at Ueda's bakery Chiroru for some time but he had to quit when his classes started and he couldn't work at daytime. Instead he got a job at the Japanese club Yorokonde where he works now.
Almost everybody in Tokyo already have a persocom and Hideki would very much like one himself but being poor there's no way he could afford one. One day it seems that his luck turns, however, when he finds an abandonned persocom in a pile of trash and takes her home. The bad news is that the persocom seems to be broken and she can only say "chii". He soon finds out that she is a custom model... and apparently a very powerful one. As Hideki starts living with Chii and bit by bit teaching her things, strange occurences keep happening around Chii.
And then she gets kidnapped and stuff but they get her back and Hideki manages to help lots of people on his way. *got bored with explaining all this ;;;* And in the course of the series he keeps wondering a) do persocoms have feelings and how are they different from people, b) why were they made in the first place, c) what are his feelings towards Chii, d) what IS Chii.
Personality: Hideki is a pretty normal young man. He worries about money and his studies, likes to read porn, wants a girlfriend, doesn't want people to think he's a total dork... He can be very hot-headed and he often has extreme reactions to things. He's social and friendly, although he seems to have a bit of a loser aura of sorts. His self-confidence isn't exactly the best in the world and he has no idea about computers or technology AT ALL but even though he does get depressed easily, he also gets better very quick and in the end he doesn't give up easily. If it's something very important to him, he won't let anything stop him.
He's a very nice and kind person who would never leave anyone in trouble if there was anything he could do. Even if he can't help, he will at least listen. He is also very respectful, even towards persocoms.
