Is the Order a Rabbit? ( Japanese: ご注文はうさぎですか?, Hepburn: Gochūmon wa Usagi desu ka?), often abbreviated as GochiUsa (ごちうさ), is a Japanese four-panel manga series written and illustrated by Koi. The series has been serialized in Houbunsha's Manga Time Kirara Max magazine since March 2011 and the chapters collected into eleven tankōbon volumes as of February 2023. In Asia, the manga was released in Indonesia by Elex Media Komputindo. [4] An anime television series adaptation animated by White Fox aired in Japan between April and June 2014. A second season by White Fox and Kinema Citrus aired in Japan between October and December 2015. Two OVA films animated by production doA were released in November 2017 and September 2019. A third anime season by Encourage Films aired in Japan between October and December 2020.
In a small Continental European styled town in Japan, teenage Cocoa Hoto enters the cafe Rabbit House, assuming there are rabbits to be cuddled. What Cocoa actually finds is her high school boarding house, staffed by the owner's daughter, Chino Kafū, a small, precocious, and somewhat shy girl with an angora rabbit on top of her head. She quickly befriends Chino with the full intention of becoming like her older sister, much to Chino's annoyance. From there she experiences her new life and befriends many others, including the military-influenced, yet feminine Rize Tedeza, the playful Chiya Ujimatsu who goes at her own pace, and the impoverished Syaro Kirima who commands an air of nobility and admiration despite her background. Slowly, through slices of life, often comedic, Cocoa becomes irreplaceable in her new friends' lives, with Chino at the forefront.
Most characters are named after drinks or food.
