It's good.
Yeah! I love coffee, too!
Since I started drinking the coffee you make, I've been hooked.
I wonder why.
But you still don't know the difference between the flavors.
You're just a caffeine addict.
I got called an addict...
Well, it's about time to open.
Okay!
The Rabbit House's mugs are really simple, huh?
Simple is best.
If you had more variety, I'm sure everyone would enjoy it.
You think so?
I found some neat mugs not long ago!
Why don't we all go buy some?
Oh? What kind?
Well...
A candle's flame danced on top, and it smelled nice.
Are you sure it wasn't an aroma candle?
Wow!
So many cute mugs!
Don't play around too much.
Exactly as I predicted!
Sorry.
How cute!
If Tippy got in one, we'd get a lot more attention!
But there aren't any mugs that big.
Here's one.
There is one?!
It's not quite the same.
He just looks like rice.
This one might be good—
I've seen situations like this in manga.
They often develop into romance, right?
She's acting weirdly conscious of me!
Huh? Sharo-chan.
Lize-senpai! What are you doing here?
Someone you know?
She's a younger student at my school.
She's Cocoa and Chiya's age.
Huh? Lize-chan, you're older than me?
You just figured that out?!
What are you doing here, Senpai?
We came to buy mugs for the café where I work part-time.
Are you buying something?
No. Just looking is enough for me.
Just looking?
Yes.
This white color...
The smooth form...
You have unusual taste!
Are you one to talk?
You two are in different grades, so how did you meet?
Well, she saved me when I was about to be attacked by a thug.
Wow! How cool!
Get down!
I'll give them what they've got coming!
That's wrong!
I didn't say that! It was actually—
Don't say it!
A delinquent feral rabbit?
It'll bite me! I'm scared! I can't get past it!
Oh, you're blocking the road again?
Shoo, shoo!
That's what happened.
So sue me for being afraid of rabbits!
H-How do you like this teacup?
She's trying to pretend that conversation didn't happen.
No, I'm not!
Look at this.
The shape allows the aroma to spread further.
Oh...
There are so many types of mugs.
This one has a different texture on the handle.
Oh, it feels nice! Now I get it!
You know a lot about these.
I pay a lot of attention to the teacups I drink fine teas from.
I use good, sturdy mugs for my coffee.
My tea bowl is my favorite one from back home.
What are they competing for?
But we serve coffee at our café, so we need coffee mugs.
Oh, you do?
And I wanted to see where you work...
What? You don't like coffee?
If you put in lots of sugar and milk, it's really good.
It's not that I don't like the bitterness!
Then why?
When I have too much caffeine,
Caffeine High
I apparently get really hyper.
Drunk on coffee?!
I don't realize it myself, though...
You don't have to drink any. Just come visit.
Okay!
Ooh! This mug is really fancy.
But it's so expensive!
50,000 yen...
Most antique ones cost about that much.
Oh! That's...
I was about to throw it away, but...
Would you like to have it, milady?
...like the one I used for target practice when I was little.
Chino-chan, let's buy matching mugs!
We didn't come to buy our own mugs.
Aww, it won't hurt! Which pattern do you like?
Senpai's watching them with an envious look...
These come in a set of two different colors.
Aren't they c-cute?
Oh, those are cute.
Wait, now that I look closer, these are for couples!
Okay, I'll buy them.
I'll give one to you.
Thank you very much!
Sharo-chan, you know a lot about expensive mugs.
You're like a rich young lady.
Rich?!
I've heard that the school with that uniform has a lot of prodigies and rich girls.
And you're pretty, too. The perfect package!
You should be saying that to Lize-senpai!
I bet this mug is just like a trinket to you, huh?
Y-You're saying that to me?!
I'll make it my family's eternal heirloom.
A rich young lady pose!
The way you hold a mug really does look elegant!
I'm just holding it normally...
And her curled hair gives her an air of dignity.
It's just frizzy...
Do you eat things like caviar, too?
Uh, you should be asking Lize-senpai things like that...
The thing I eat most is junk food.
And stuff like sample rations.
Portable military food. Blueberry flavor. The fragrance and sweet-sour flavor of dried fruit fills the mouth. Best to chew thoroughly for optimal digestion and absorption. Avoid eating in excess.
Portable military food. Marshmallow Fudge. Soft and moist, it breaks apart easily in the mouth. Its mild sweetness gives it a refined flavor. Avoid eating in excess.
Portable military food. Macadamia Nuts. Best suited to long-term military operations. Compact, but good source of calories. Carefully roasted nuts are highly aromatic. Avoid eating in excess.
Rations?
Things you can just eat on the spot are great, aren't they?
I know what you mean!
Things like rice with raw egg are delicious, right?
By "raw eggs," I bet she means caviar!
Ama Usa An
Oh, Sharo-chan.
Welcome back.
Lize-senpai has the wrong image of me now...
And that girl had some weird creature on her head...
You met Cocoa-chan and her friends, eh?
You can't tell them.
Tell them what?
That I live in this house!
But I think it's a nice, modest house.
Hmph!
Bunnisode 3
Do You Remember the Day You First Got Drunk?
You Tried to Light a Campfire in Your Own Home, Didn't You?
I'm heading out.
What is that?
Flyers for the place where I'll be working.
Please let me have one, too.
Well, all right...
Th-This is...
Sharo-chan is in trouble!
What's going on?!
Sharo-chan was carrying these flyers!
Soothes both body and mind
It must mean she's working at some shady place!
What?!
I'm too scared to ask her!
Fleur de Lapin? Isn't that just a café?
How can we stop Sharo-chan?
Why don't we all go there after work?
An infiltration?
Infiltration?!
Everyone! Are you ready to become ghosts?!
I kind of am!
Don't underestimate an infiltration!
Sir!
All right! Follow me!
Yes, sir!
I can't hear you!
Where are we going to infiltrate?
Yes, sir!
So you and Sharo-chan have been friends since you were children?
That's right.
So I couldn't just ignore this...
Listen up. We're going to carefully peek in.
Welcome!
Why are you here?!
This is a café that specializes in herbal teas.
The herbs have many beneficial effects.
Who's the one who had the wrong idea?
We just came to see you, Sharo-chan!
What did you mean by "shady"?
I figured this was all it was.
That uniform is lovely!
It was her?!
But you do look cute, Sharo-chan!
The rabbit ears suit you!
The owner's into this stuff...
I didn't want Lize-senpai to see me like this!
Those are eyes of contempt!
Lop ears might work, too...
Anyway, why are you in your uniforms?
We sort of hurried over...
Miss, I'd like to order now.
I'd like to order, too.
One moment, please.
Don't do misleading things!
Since we're here, could we have some tea before we go?
Well, I suppose.
I don't know much about types of herbal tea...
Dandelion is the best!
Have you had it before?
It makes you strong, like a lion!
She doesn't know that it means the flower...
If you can't decide, I'll pick the herbal tea that suits each of you best.
For Cocoa, I pick linden flower.
It has a relaxing effect.
Wow!
Chiya gets rosemary.
It's good for stiff shoulders.
That'll be helpful!
Chino-chan, how would you like a nice, light, sweet-smelling chamomile?
I'm not a child.
Lize-senpai, you said you've had trouble sleeping lately,
so I recommend lavender!
Tippy would like something that stops hearing and vision loss, please.
Is Tippy that old?
Wow!
It's turning red!
How pretty!
This one turned from blue to pink when I put in the lemon.
How interesting!
Um...
Would you like some cookies made with herbs?
I baked them myself.
You made these?
Let's see...
This is good!
I'm so glad...
Sharo-chan turned red!
This is even more interesting to watch!
These cookies aren't sweet!
Sure they are.
It's because you drank gymnema sylvestre.
Huh?!
Gymnema means "sugar destroyer."
After drinking it, you can't taste sweetness for a while.
I-It has that effect?!
You used to drink it a lot when dieting, right, Sharo-chan?
Don't say that, stupid!
I drank so much.
I feel like flowers are going to bloom in my stomach.
If there's anything I can help with, let me know.
Thanks. You're younger than me, but you're so responsible.
I'd like you for a little sister.
Chino-chan is my little sister!
What are you talking about?
Do you both feel more relaxed?
I do feel relaxed...
I think my shoulders feel a bit lighter.
I feel a little more energetic.
I think that's a placebo effect...
Hey, Sharo-chan, can you make herbal tea at home, too?
Yes, there are some people who cultivate their own.
Cocoa-san is asleep.
But she was just talking...
The herbal tea worked too well...
Everyone!
Let's make herbal tea!
You think we can make it with this?!
Cocoa-san...
That's a weed.
Thanks for coming over even though it's raining.
I just got off work, anyway.
It was sunny when we got here, though...
It's all thanks to the way a certain someone behaves every day.
Maybe it's because something as rare as Sharo-chan coming here happened?
Sorry for the wait.
You don't like coffee... Will you be okay?
I-It's okay if it's just a little.
Senpai made this coffee for me, after all.
Everyone!
Thanks for playing with me today! Yay!
Come over anytime you're free.
Really?! I will, I will!
Chino-chan! You're so cuddly!
It's like there are two Cocoas...
The rain's getting heavier.
So is the wind.
I'll call a ride and take her home.
I don't want her to know where I live!
No, I'll take her home.
Chiya-chan!
You two can use the bath first.
Thanks.
You're sure I can stay over, too?
Lize-chan, are you nervous about staying over?
N-No...
It's just that I've only ever camped in the wild.
So this is my first time...
In the wild?
Your room is just like you, Chino.
Ta-da! I tried on Chino-chan's school uniform!
You could go to middle school and not seem out of place. That worries me.
Really?! I'm gonna go try it!
Wait. It's raining hard outside.
That's not the problem!
Isn't it nice that we were able to stay over with Lize-chan and the others?
Not especially.
You actually wanted to see them, didn't you?
I did not.
You're really not having fun, are you?
I'm not... not having fun.
Wait, huh?
Chino-chan is really cuddly to hug, isn't she?
Huh? Wouldn't doing the kind of thing Cocoa does bother her?
I'm glad we were able to borrow pajamas from Chino-chan,
but aren't these too cute?
You look like a real rich lady.
I usually sleep in tracksuits...
What if Lize-senpai laughs at me?
It's not what you think! I lost at rock-paper-scissors!
Okay, Chino-chan, let's go take our bath.
Right.
Hey!
We're done!
You're still doing that?
A-All right, I'm going to take my bath.
Hey, you kinda smell like cocoa.
What do you mean, I smell like me?
I mean the drink!
Cocoa *Not for drinking
Bam! It's bath powder!
This will make you smell sweet too, Lize-chan!
That's not necessary...
I hate to admit it, but it's not bad.
Things got lively all of a sudden, huh?
Since we have this chance,
I'd like to hear the things you're all hiding in your hearts.
Isn't this what leads to telling who you love?!
Wait a minute... No! I'm not ready for this!
Tell me your best ghost story.
Don't say that with eyes that look like you're in love!
My café has a ghost story.
It does?
Lize-san and Cocoa-san, you work here,
but please stay calm and listen.
Gulp...
When night falls at this café...
There are many eyewitness reports.
My father and I have seen it, too.
Wh-What is it?
Eyes glowing in the darkness,
from something small, fluffy...
...and white!
She's trying her hardest to scare us, but...
It's just Tippy.
I have a story I've been saving.
It's a true story called "Rabbit the Ripper."
A b-blackout?!
Calm down. For times like this...
Of all things, a candle?!
It's getting exciting now...
Long ago, in a certain café, there was a rabbit.
Many murders occurred one after another around that rabbit...
And that's the story.
The end.
Well, shall we stop telling ghost stories and go to sleep now?
W-We're definitely going to be haunted!
Restroom...
Jeez... Chiya got me all scared...
Wait...
Lize-senpai?!
M-My candle went out, and I couldn't move...
...is not what happened!
Let's go together.
Y-Yeah.
Lightning, I love you!
Good morning, Chino-chan.
Good morning.
Morning.
Sharo-chan, you said "Today is a special sale" in your slee—
E-Even if I did, don't say that here!
Why is she over there?
Maybe she's having a dream about crawling.
Next Time: Your Lucky Items Are Vegetables, Crime, and Punishment.
If she'd eat everything without being picky,
Chino would be fluffy and soft like me, too.
In your case, I don't know if you're fluffy or fat.
What?!
We Look Forward to Seeing You Again!
