Jima one of two government persocoms who are looking for Chii. They do not want her to execute her final program, which they believe would destroy the person-recognition abilities of every persocom on the planet. It is believed that the program will execute when Chii finds the person just for her. Jima, however, believes that this may not necessarily be true, and genuinely wants Chii to find happiness. He lies to Dita about Chii's whereabouts and stalls as long as possible before finally going to stop her. In the manga, Jima physically restrains Dita from attacking Chii. Jima is also the Japanese government's national data bank, and during the course of the series an attempt is made by Yuzuki to hack into him to gain information on Chii. In the anime, Jima remarks that he and Dita were created from the same basic system that Chii is, rendering them immune to her ability to immobilize persocoms.

In the future, personal computers have developed into "Persocoms", mobile computers that look like human beings. Hideki Motosuwa, a prep school student, desperately wants to buy a Persocom but cannot afford to. One day he finds a Persocom that has been thrown away and decides to keep it. When he turns on the Persocom, all she can say is "Chii" so he decides to name her that. After a while it starts to become apparent that Chii is more than an average Persocom. Having much better performance, it seems that Chii might be a "Chobit", a type of advanced Persocom rumored to have independent thought.<br><br>

Hideki’s luck changes one night when he finds Chi - an adorable, but seemingly broken, persocom thrown out in a pile of trash. After taking her home, Hideki discovers that Chi is more responsibility than he expected - and that there’s much more to his cute new persocom than meets the eye. <br><br>(Source: Kodansha USA)
