Gochuumon wa Usagi desu ka??

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?

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 every few months, it's crazy (and we'll deserved). I can watch this show over and over and it always manages to cheer me up. This is like chicken soup for the soul, anime edition. If there was anime medicine, this is it.

Mixed Feelings

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 absolute blast to watch how Blend S' characters react to each other's antics. On the other hand, Gochiusa's characters are bland and generically moe. This makes them very boring to watch. After a few episodes, you've seen them all - Cocoa and Chiya's "airheaded" antics, Rize and Chino's retort, and Sharo's occasional "yuri" outbursts, etc etc etc. On top of that, these characters' reactions are so underwhelming that punchlines usually fall flat on their faces. They don't really react in any interesting way or expand on the joke - they just simply "react" very predictably and then move on to the next joke. I became sick of what this show calls "comedy" halfway into the show.

And so naturally, when the jokes and the character's don't work, what's left to carry the show? The moe. But for me, even the moe is extremely boring. It's nothing I haven't seen before - sickly cute and that's it. Everything feels so incredibly uninspired. For reference, I think the absolute epitome of a good moe slice-of-life show is Himouto, Umaru-chan! I think it's fun, witty, dynamic, and utterly unique.

And so in the end, nothing works for me in this show, which is quite unfortunate, considering how I found season 1 to not be this bad. But that might be because back when I watched it (3 or 4 years ago) my tastes weren't as jaded as they are now.

Art: 7/10

The idyllic setting brings with it some gorgeous scenery and architecture. It's the same old artstyle that season 1 introduced us to. However, I think this style could use some more flexibility and personality. Maybe more interesting facial expressions and more chibi/deformed moments?

Sound: 6/10

Underwhelming. I loved both the OP and ED of season 1, but not this time around. The background music tracks are nice though.

Enjoyment: 5/10


Overall: 6/10
