Yup, Chobits (TV) based on the manga under the same name.
Yeah, I read the manga before, so I already know the ending and stuff… But since all the last time I read the manga was like years ago, I can only vaguely remember how it really happened.

Autumn 2011 anime season preview
After summer comes the fall, and with it, a new anime season. I am sure many of you have enjoyed the various shows in the summer, like Kami-memo and Usagi Drops among many others. My personal favourite so far has been Kamisama Dolls and Usagi Drops. The autumn season though seems set to outshine the summer, with popular series like Shana and Ika Musume returning. So let us take a look at my personal favourites for the coming anime season…
As usual, all information in this preview is taken from AniDB.net / Anime News Network.

Wrong, I saw this anime on Omni-san’s animeblog (used to be Omni’s, Divine has now taken over ownership), at first I thought that this must be those “yuri” type anime, but I decided to give it a try anyway, it wasn’t bad at all… I found it to be quite interesting :)
Review: Detective Conan – Quarter of Silence
