'Is the Order a Rabbit?' is very special. If I may be so bold as to allow myself a bit of pretentiousness, I might say is a meditation on masks, with every character putting up a façade or hiding insecurity of some sort, even as the café, the friendships and the town keep on rolling and the world keeps on turning. If you are one of those anime fans whom I look down upon – the kind that just want to watch cute girls do cute things and to be 'healed' as it were – the characters will more than likely do the trick for you at face value. At the same time, the show can provide anyone more of my ilk with something more substantive to go along with the peaceful atmosphere, thus repelling boredom.
Yet obviously…

The best representative of what i'd term "kirara slop", and what I see as the turning point of "cute girls doing cute things".
It's not *bad*. And with 6/10, I'm rating it a bit too harshly. But it represents, I think, a shift in how all-girls slice of life anime was done. All the ingredients of a cute slice of life with simple comedy and elements of yuri (in the general not-just-romantic sense) are there. And it works well enough.
Something is not quite right with it though. It's as if the genre had become too aware of itself as a commercial product, and made sure to flash enough stimuli triggering a "kawaii" impression at a fast enough rate to sustain attention. It's more noticeable in the second season, but it's already there in the first one. It really doesn't feel like Aria the Anim…

The anime was a fine watch, but unfortunately neither enjoyable nor recommendable.
Firstly, let me preface this by saying that Chino is one of my favourites character of all time in anime. I have many of her merch and will continue to like her despite the show.
A common problem with shows that feature a group of loli CGDCT is that the show forgets to write an actually enjoyable storyline and interactions.
A good SoL approach should demonstrate the character cast's unique and colourful interaction with common SoL events. Instead Is the order a rabbit uses very flat reactions. The SoL events doesn't showcase the different sides of the character or amplifies their personality, but instead are just thrown in as a plot device to pass the episode timer.
There is also the question of the "cut…

I love this anime. I can't really say this enough and with strong enough words. I LOVE this anime.
It's a Cute Girls Doing Cute Things anime, and also a "moe" anime, and it does these things well. There are only maybe three male characters in the whole thing, but at least you can see their faces, which is sadly all too unusual for moe/CGDCT anime like this. The characters are insanely cute, and do cute things. The art is beautiful, the sound is great, everything's well made in this anime.
But this is not why I loved this anime. This is, at best, one reason to like this anime.
I love this anime because of the setting.
The mangaka chose a quasi-European town, with architecture that wouldn't be out of place in the Swiss countryside. They speak Japanese (which makes sense because it's a Ja…

Flagship of modern Anime moe. Cute, heart warming, funny, relatable and relaxing, a perfect checklist of what the genre is about.
It is a CGDCT anime, but it actually construct a very solid world around it and an overarching main mystery that slowly but steady reveals it self. Also there is real character development, slow and smoothly characters overcome their weaknesses, become closer to each others open up, is not for nothing that the third season is called "Bloom", but most importantly it is heart warming, seeing the characters grow gives you joy, you feel like you are a part of the gang and is growing with them.
Every character is unique and special, there is no superficial character or generic stereotypes, if anyone says otherwise it is because it didn't cared to pay attention, as…

Syaro-chan is my waifu.
This one is a perfect example of how you make a good CGDCT anime. Show it warm and cozy, girls are all likeable waifu material and stuff they are doing enhances their feminine value and makes them perfect waifu material.
This show has all the above mentioned components.
In addition to Syaro-chan it also has Chino, Chiya, Cocoa and Rize. 5 good waifus for everyone's tastes. There is also Aoyama as well as Megu and Maya.
Show is mostly episodic without much of common underlying story. However it does not matter for a show like that.
Girls are cute and you want be there and be surrounded by them. Make them bring you food and coffee.
This show really makes your want to be there. A perfect fantasy fulfilment.
Therefore I recommend it for everyone.
They somewhat r…

It’s a slice-of-life show about cute girls doing cute things.
It does it decently well, the show itself doesn’t feel too generic. Yet it doesn’t feel like it does anything to stand out.
All of the girls in the cast have their own personalities and stay true to them in the various interactions. The problem is that I never found the characters very interesting, which is the most important element in a slice-of-life show. Because of this, I got pretty burnt-out watching these characters going though plot points of no real significance.
Characters aside, nothing else stood out enough for me to analyze. The art/animation, sound, and music were all ok and left no real impression on me.
And in a nutshell, that is how I can best describe my thoughts on this anime. It was something that I w…

Let me be frank, "Gochuumon wa Usagi Desu ka (Is the order rabbit)?" is an anime about girls working at a coffee shop but is not plot driven. It is a comedy that is relaxing and adorable. If you are looking for something philosophical about girls selling coffee i'm afraid to say this isn't it. Don't be shocked if you are tired of the "cute girls doing cute things" type of animes and decide to watch this anime only to find yourself disappointed.
Now with that out of the way let me start by saying that i LOVE this anime. The characters themselves are adorable and the interaction between the characters leaves me laughing and in a better mood than when i started each episode. It is a cheerful upbeat anime that will make you laugh and have a good time, what more could you want from a comedy?

Hello everyone, it's about that time of year I emerged from under my rock to give opinions no one asked for, I do hope you enjoy, exalted denizens of the weebnet.
It is often a difficult endeavor, even for those of us who number among the appreciators, to quantify exactly what makes a slice of life show ‘truly great’ or ‘’stand-out’. It’s not that no such shows exist, the truth is in fact far from, its that in the absence of big epic moments or impressive sakuga cuts, that feeling is not one that we feel so intensely in a moment as in other shows. So what is it exactly that separates a K-On from a lesser series? Well I think today’s review, ‘Is the order a rabbit’, provides a good case study for some do’s and don'ts of cute girls doing cute things.
First of all, we have to get this clea…

Cathartic in nature, GochiUsa is a heartwarmer that has its roots in providing contentment—similar to the relaxation one can feel from sipping freshly-brewed coffee. With an ample amount of lovable charms and a cuteness as cute as the twitches of a bunny's nose, it's the ideal to show to hearten oneself. I mean, just look at my smiling face!
But let's be clear first. The show doesn't have the most imaginative story as it follows pretty much all the things other CGDCTs have. Instead, it's in its setting—a town with European resemblances—that gives GochiUsa a special kind of appeal. Elegant, idyllic, and traditional, the town's architectures are adorned by timbered buildings and cobbled streets, making it a breath of a fresh air away…

Well, it's the average SoL out there it's cute girls doing cute things with humor and this anime manage to do it in the average perfomance. NaNaChi_()x
though i have seen better ones that made me laugh a lot more and made me feel a lot more connected with the characters so that is why im giving a 7, it has humor and it is ok overall but well as i said it is an average SoL, don't expect a K-ON or something bad either it is just in the middle, but it is really enjoyable so it fulfills the typical SoL objetive so give it a try $!Y!Y!

Story: I give this 7/10. Obviously there is no story at all and only just a SoL but the comedy I think is better than usual SoL. It doesn't rely on tired tropes.
Art: Nice and comforting. I liked it very much. Therefore I give it 10/10. I like the change in background scene, not just typical Japanese school setting. This providing a good refresh.
Sound: The only thing I can say about the sound is the Season 2 Ending: Tokimeki Poporon. YouTube it, you will get diabetes. Other than that, the soundtrack is not distracting but not always the most memorable.
Character is 9/10 because I thought they were quite funny character.
Enjoyable SoL for those who want SoL. For the other persons who want more plot, do look elsewhere.

One of the sweetest anime about friendship. I myself love coffee, so I very much enjoyed the cafe scenery. Also, the town in which the anime is located is so picturesque that made me feel I want to visit it. The story is quiet and peaceful, and the best way to start your day.
The characters are sweet and unique without pushing it to the edges like the typical harem anime, in which each character tends to be so annoying, because they want to stand out.
The soundtracks also calm and sweet make you feel like you're inside the cafe, or in the park - they're cheerful and give you the sense of happiness.
I'm definetely watching the 2nd season, and I recommend it to every otaku friend here, who wants to relax and enjoy a beautiful casula story with cute but not provocative girls.

Your usual moe and slice of life anime. Usually for anime with 12 episodes, I find that they dont spend much time with character development due to the story plot being rushed. But for this anime i must say the producers did a good job with character development in that they take the time to show each character's personality and have a distinct personality for each of them. Add comedy to this anime and it makes watching it all the more interesting and enjoying
Favorite character in this series has got to be Chino. Cool and quiet personality and kawaii as well.
Overall rating I'll give this anime a 9/10

My favorite anime of all time. Cuteness? Check. A variety of amazing characters? Check. Names of characters who are named after your favorite beverages? (Kafu Chino -> Cappu -ccino) (Cocoa -> Hot Cocoa) Check. Amazing soundtracks? Check. Amazing art style? Check. Good story? Well, I'll cover an eye for that one. Could not stop listening to the music of the opening's and endings, you can just hear the cuteness flowing down to your eardrums like rivers of pure vanilla flavored streams.
This is the type of anime I like the most, personally. A mix of comedy, cuteness, character development, interactions and personalities are very well thought of. It fits in so well all in all. The only things missing from this is a season 3.

When it comes to CGDCT(Cute Girls Doing Cute Things) anime Gochuumon wa Usagi Desu ka? stands a hare above the rest!
Seriously, this anime was fun to watch and perfect for relaxing, turn your brain off entertainment. Its the perect thing to watch after a bad day, or to put on and watch as falling asleep.
There really is no plot. The anime follows the staff at Rabbit House, a family owned coffee house, and two competing coffee houses where side characters work.
Overall 8/10
Kawaii Power Level: Over 9000!!!!
Story: 8 - While there is no real plot, the stories that unfold in each episode really work the way they are inteded, which is functioning as an excuse to watch the characters be cute.
Art: 9 - I really liked the art. So moe, and when you are watching a CGDCT anime moe is just wh…

I'm going to keep this super quick because this is a pretty typical S.o.L anime. This is lighthearted, fun and cute. This is an anime where you could mix up most of the episodes (assuming you didn't change character introduction order) and get a similar experience.
If you like a heartfelt story where not a whole lot happens except that a bunch of cute adolescent girls have fun together and learn and grow as friends you will enjoy it. If you're looking for something more substantive or there to be an overarching story arc or plot then you may be disappointed.

At first, I may have only watched it cause of Ayako (an inside joke, feel free to be confused), but this anime had a surprising amount of good moments in it. But, nothing that has enough depth for me to write a full-fledged review, so as usual, I will list it the way that most short reviews are listed.
Story: 5/10
As usual, do not expect a comedy to have a good story. It only gets a five because it tackled basic comedy fare, had a good setting and so on; the usual rating that I give comedies unless they do something remarkably different.
Art: 6/10
The buildings looked really good, but a few other things did not look as good in comparison. It has a basic art style that most modern anime have and is not doing anything too new here, either.
Sound: 5/10
As per usual, basic soundtrack, no…

Personally speaking, I like my anime to have a little more meat on its' bones than your every-day "generic cute lolis doing generic cute loli things" show. Despite that phrase essentially fitting Usagi perfectly, it's still enjoyable and sweet.
Story: 6/10. The story is simple, and not even really that compelling, but on an episode-to-episode level it's enjoyable. There's an emphasis on wacky humor that rarely missed the mark for me; if an anime can make me chuckle consistently at least once per episode, that's good enough for me.
Art: 7/10. The characters are generically moe-y, and not even really *that* well drawn, but they're cute and distinct with one another I did appreciate that every character had a diverse and cute wardrobe (if you're going to make a show about cute girls, I com…
