Is the Order a Rabbit??

Is the Order a Rabbit??

Introduction

With a new year comes new adventures, especially at the Rabbit House! Since her arrival at the café, Kokoa Hoto has become accustomed to her new life as a waitress even though the Rabbit House isn't the rabbit paradise she initially envisioned it to be. Life is pleasant, and she enjoys spending time both working and playing with her friends and fellow waitresses Chino Kafuu, a cute middle school student with a fuzzy bunny companion named Tippy, and Rize Tedeza, the pig-tailed daughter of a soldier who is readily armed for any scenario. Together with Chiya Ujimatsu and Sharo Kirima, who also work at neighboring cafés in town, the Rabbit House crew gets involved in all sorts of crazy adventures. Throughout these adventures, the girls encounter troubled novelists, rival cafes, secret treasure, and... alcoholic chocolates? [Written by MAL Rewrite]

For a slice of life this anime did a very good job,It's funny and it's graphic is great for an anime that released in 2015,the character design is pretty unique,ny favourite character is probably Syaro she's the funniest character in the anime i haven't finished watching the 3rd season yet but everything is great so far.This anime is one of the best slice of life anime i've ever seen.The story is very good for a slice of life,the art style is pretty unique too.For me the story is not really predictable and i love Cocoa's joke.If you like this anime there's a similar anime to this one called "Hinako note".

Pretty much the top tier of anime. The only way you wouldn't like it is if you don't like this genre. This show has everything an amazing CGDCT anime should have, and more. Top tier voice actors, top tier entertaining story, top tier hijinks, top tier soundtrack, top tier art / animation / background, top tier every thing. The characters are so incredible, you're bound to easily find a favorite or two. The setting is also one extremely good aspect that is often looked over, the world is so gorgeous and really evokes the feeling of visiting a far out place where you can leave your worries behind. That's what makes this show so special, on top of every thing else. There's a reason why this show is STILL extremely popular in Japan. There's tons of new merchandise coming out for GochiUsa e…

Story: 7/10 Nearly non-existent; standard moe slice-of-life show fare, which I don't mind. What I do mind though, is the characters. Characters: 3/10 Cocoa and her friends bored me out of my mind. I could tolerate season 1 but somehow season 2 lost me. I know having deep and developed characters is not the point of this type of show. But for me, I want to be somewhat engaged even when I'm watching a relaxing slice-of-life show, and Gochiusa severely falls short in this respect. Here's why: Comparing this show to Blend S would make for an interesting case study on what makes a slice-of-life / comedy great. In Blend S, the characters are unique, distinct, and above all else, interesting. In addition, Blend S also exhibits a certain degree of wit in its writing. As a result, it's an abso…

Well since I haven't done a review for Season 1, I'll be going into quite detail here. So, does this anime have the amount of cuteness and sweet sugary goodness which might result in diabetes that it is claimed to have? Well, maybe not that extreme but you bet this anime is brimming with cuteness. That's basically why I ended up watching this anime: To see for myself just how cute it can get. And the main reason for that can be attributed to the character designs. This is a very good example of a situation whereby the characters do not look their age. In fact, in most cases, they don't even act their age. But seriously, who the heck cares about that? The important thing is that this anime will most definitely put a smile on your face. And one thing to note about the character designs are…

Gochuumon wa Usagi Desu ka is basically everything right with the world. If you want some heartmelting adorable anime, this should be the obvious choice. I watched first season one year ago and I almost got diabetes. Well, recently I watched Kiniro Mosaic and it made me think that I perhaps got used to cuteness over the course of the year, so maybe second season of Gochuumon wouldn't work that well on me. But no. This anime is just total moefest, it grabs you by your heart and won't let go. Animation is really well done. Art in this anime is absolutely STUNNING. It's incredibly good looking anime. How about story? Well, no story for you, it's just adorable slice of life. But there was one thing all episodes had in common. The fact that I watched all of them grinning like an idiot. Charac…

(This review has been adapted from my blog/reddit thread. Spoilers ahead!) In the final episode of the second season here of Is the Order a Rabbit?? (two question marks to signify the sequel), the girls go on what’s called a “Ciste.” Basically a treasure hunt. They use a map that contains clues that lead them through town until they discover a chest where goodies are had and traded. When I was kid, one of my best friends had a birthday party where his mother set up a treasure hunt. I remember all of us peering over the map, running around the house looking for clue after clue. It was simple but fun, and, best of all, we found the chest tucked away in the closet by the entrance. Inside was enough candy to last a week, but, being boys, we finished it all before the night was up. Rabbit??…

I'm going to keep this extra super quick because this is basically season 1 extended. There is a bit more story in this season and a few more adventures (extra points) but the ending is a bit contrived and could have been a bit more climactic (take away said extra points). There are a few new characters introduced but they mostly don't add anything to the plot, but they are fun so it doesn't matter much. Basically, if you liked season 1 you will like season 2. Don't expect a strong ending and if you like it hope they go for season 3 in the future!

Gochuumon wa Usagi desu ka was a really enjoyable slice of life series with fun characters and strong comedic moments. I think that we're probably going to see a pretty comparable level of work with White Fox's second series of it, but first, let's briefly talk about the first series. Cocoa moved into a new area where she's staying at the Rabbit House Café and using sister to describe Chino, the younger girl who runs Rabbit House. The two of them have friends from two competitors and a friend who works with them and the five of them engage in hijinks. There's also a rabbit that houses the soul of Chino's grandfather and talks.... because. So, let's see if the second series provides new and improved hijinks for us. Story: Like the first series, there's no over-arcing story here. Cocoa has…

i didnt really like the first season, mainly because i'm not used to the comedy/slice of life genre. i decided to try to get used to these genres by continuing on and watching the second season. the character art is amazing and i just wanted to see more of the characters in this anime. again, there isn't really much story. i feel kind of delighted that chino's friends are shown more in this season. the op no poi is really good. the ed is also good. the other ops and eds were a meh, but still enjoyable to watch. i've yet to skip ops and eds. i'd just like to point out that imo, megu's voice actress seems to be a bit off compared to what she looks like. but you know, this happens in real life too, where people may sound completely different to what they look like. i didnt really put this ac…

The main reason why you've watch this show is because you've watched the first season. If not, then you've something going wrong because this is a season 2. Story. Again, not much to say. Just a series of Slice of Life comedic events, such as visiting your friend who is ill, doing laundry(apparently), buying stationary goods and eating chocolates. All very cute. In an anime at least. Art. Stayed the same thankfully. Characters. THERE ARE NEW CHARACTER!!!! Not telling who cause that's actually a big enough part of this sweet sweet season 2. The rest are still there. Enjoyment, possibly as good as season 1, if not, better. Overall, worth-while. For those who enjoyed season 1 at least. JUST WATCH IT. OR WATCH IT AGAIN!!!!

I did not embrace this season too heavily at all, since I only moderately enjoyed the first. But, MAN, did this succeed my expectations by far. It almost convinced me to write a full-fledged review on it, but it still did not heavily expand upon its first concept in a significant enough way to justify for this. However, it succeeded in a lot more ways. Story: 7/10 Now, THIS caught me off guard. Normally, as I said in my review of the prior season, anime comedies usually never have good story to them unless they are either mainstream ones or are a comedy and a drama. However, this season unexpectedly brought forth some notable elements and some really good back-stories that were highly enjoyable. Most of it is rather short, but the small doses you take in have a very potent affect. One t…

With the advent of the constant bashing of many anime fans being distraught by the amount of moe-blob anime taking over the majority of the seasons since 2009, it's telling that the genre has long overstayed its welcome. I'm one of those who do not pay attention to the trends going on and approach something with an open mind, no matter what tag the anime falls under. There is always this sense of surprise still lurking in every genre. Of the moe-blob anime that has been on my radar for a while was Gochuumon wa Usagi desu ka. On its debut in 2014, Gochuumon wa Usagi desu ka, I thought, was an excellent first season to start introducing the cast of girls that we would follow into their ordinary and cute daily lives. What kept me from loving it was that it seemed like a very "safe" moe-blob…

So this is the first time I actually gonna write a review about an anime but it has to be done with an anime such as Gochuumon wa Usagi Desu ka??! I might be a bit biased through the wall of text I'm gonna submit but I try to support every statement with a good reason. First of all I have to say that GochiUsa?? was the anime I was most hyped for the past year. No wonder it is also my anime of the year 2015, even though I only watched like 4 animes that were published in 2015. But this is like I watch and rate anime, I don't watch all of the hyped titles! I only watch the animes with the genres I prefer and that's why I was so hyped for GochiUsa?? I know that most of you people out there are doing it like this too but I just wanted to mention it. So why do I like Gochuumon wa Usagi Desu k…

GochiUsa is the third series from my arbitrary holy trinity of shows from the modern era of moe. These three are KinMoza, NNB and GochiUsa. In my opinion, these three are the epitome of the modern time's CGDCT SoL anime, and with all three having recently had a second season, their formula seems to be working. This is a review of both seasons of GochiUsa without any spoilers (as if they actually exits) STORY As is with these SoL shows, the main focus of the show is on the characters and their interactions with each other, rather than on any kind of storyline. Each episode is split into three or four separate scenes, each usually playing completely separate from one another. Most scenes are comedy oriented, but most of the show's emphasis is on the characters being cute mofos. GochiUsa is…

(REALLY MINOR SPOILERS FOR EP12) If you have a) any knowledge of moe and slice of life, b) a love for moe and slice of life, c) an intense hatred for moe and slice of life, or d) read enough of my posts to notice a common pattern in subject matters, then you would be aware of the basic recipe for success of such shows: the construction of a world that's charming and relaxing, and a cast of characters who are teeth-rottingly adorable. However, after 2 seasons of Is the order a rabbit? | Gochuumon wa Usagi Desu ka?, it has become apparent, that the show's charms extends far from the norm: the endearing atmosphere and the intimate closeness of the viewers' emotional investment with the characters onscreen, are the harvests grown from a well-soiled foundation of creative and thematic ideas th…

Moe is a rather one-note genre. The main premise and draw of it is having a bunch of cute girls do cute thing in a rather ordinary setting living a day to day life. So, for the Fall 2015 season, our token moe show is Gochuusa 2, a basic rehash of what we know of the moe genre...and then some. Story: Gocchusa 2 returns to the town of...wherever we are, back to the Rabbit House cafe, where we return back to the seemingly always barren cafe to witness the little adventures of the girls inside. As mentioned before, the story of a general moe show is simple, and as such, Gocchusa's story is rather simple. Every episode is basically another day in the world of Gocchusa and every episode follows the girls in whatever adventure that they go on doing. Things like camping, treasure hunting, work t…

Gochuumon wa Usagi Desu ka?? can be described as an anime that builds upon the foundation which has brought it success in its prior season. It gives the fans more of what they desire without making substantial changes to most if not all elements. As in the previous season, the story of GochiUsa is simplistic in featuring cute, barista girls do cute things. The episodes for the most part are standalone, meaning they are not directly tied to the events of those before them. Still, there is a finale, and a satisfying one which is handled well at that. The story is not all that unique, even with the cafe motif and the Mediterranean town-like setting, but I definitely do not have a problem with this. I think the pacing is fine for an anime of this genre, as well. It gives the characters time…

With the end of the year fast approaching, it is time for all of us to reflect on what the anime industry offered us this year. And after seeing a wide variety of shows, I believe 2015 should just be called the Year of the Moe. This year, not only did we get shows like Hello!! Kiniro Mosaic and Wakaba*Girl, but now this one too: Gochiusa...2! Gochiusa 2 may not appear to be as appealing as other Fall 2015 shows such as One Punch Man and there may be a good reason for that. To some people, a slice-of-life approach may be too slow-paced for them. For others, just looking at the artwork within the poster for Gochiusa 2 may be a turn-off for them. And there's always that group that says "Why would I ever watch a show of cute girls doing cute things (CGDCT)?" And you know, they are all techn…

The most sugary sweet, diabetes-inducing moe show there ever was finally makes its encore in the second season of Gochuumon wa Usagi Desu ka. You better prepare some tissues (no not *that* kind you perv) before you kick things off or you may suffer the risk of dying from excessive nosebleeds. Studio White Fox will not be held legally accountable for any such incidents. Anyway I'll try to keep this short because you should already know exactly what to expect from this if you've seen the first season (which you should have if you're reading this). Although it's naturally very similar, I personally think this season is slightly better than the first one, because it has a bit more focus on the show's main strength, in other words moe. I don't think there's ever been an anime which makes me ra…

If you haven’t guessed this already. Gochi Usa is by no means an extraordinary show. It is in a sense just another show about cute girls doing cute things. It is not anything revolutionary nor does it seek to add a story within it, but if there is one thing that I can give GochiUsa credit for it’s the ability for the show to relieve me of my stress and put a stupid smile on my face at the end of each episode. And you know what? That’s good enough reason for me to like this show. The story continues the daily life of Cocoa and the others at the Rabbit House Café as they go through with their lives. Honestly speaking trying to find a story in GochiUsa is like trying to find a good plot in porn. Gochi Usa's main selling point is it's cute characters and its abundance of moe moments, and I do…
