The appeal and reviews of "Is the Order a Rabbit??": The perfect balance of healing and laughter

The appeal and evaluation of "Is the Order a Rabbit?"

"Is the Order a Heron??" is a TV anime series based on the original manga by Koi, which aired from October 10 to December 26, 2015. It can be viewed on stations such as AT-X and TOKYO MX, and consists of 12 episodes of 30 minutes each. Animation was produced by WHITE FOX and the director was Hashimoto Hiroyuki. This work has been highly praised for bringing out the best in slice-of-life anime and providing viewers with healing and laughter.

Story and Characters

The setting of "Is the Order a Heron??" is a coffee shop called "Rabbit House" located in the fictional town of "Kimono-Machi." The main character, Cocoa, comes to the town to search for her sister Chino, but ends up working at Rabbit House in her sister's place. There, she meets a variety of unique characters, including Chino, Tippy, Rize, Chiya, and Sharo. Through her interactions with them, Cocoa develops new friendships and bonds.

The appeal of this work lies above all in the charm of its characters. Each character is unique and draws viewers in, with Cocoa's cheerfulness and energy, Chino's mature aura and cuteness, Rize's tsundere personality, Chiya's coolness, and Sharo's presence as a straight man. Also, by depicting their daily lives, viewers can feel their growth and change, deepening their empathy and attachment.

Animation and Music

The visuals of "Is the Order a Heron?" have also been highly praised. WHITE FOX's beautiful animation carefully depicts the landscape of the half-timbered town and the interior of Rabbit House in great detail, drawing the viewer into the world. Additionally, the characters' expressions and movements are incredibly realistic, expressing changing emotions and subtle nuances.

The music in this work is also of excellent quality. The opening theme "No Poi!" and the ending theme "Popotan" have melodies and lyrics that resonate with the viewer's heart, enhancing the atmosphere of the work. The background music is also chosen to match each scene, playing a role in bringing out the viewer's emotions.

Ratings and Recommendations

"Is the Order a Heron??" has been highly praised as a representative slice-of-life anime. Viewers have commented that it is "soothing," "funny," and "the characters are charming," and it has especially strong support from young women. There are also many fans of the original manga, and its popularity has spread even further since it was made into an anime.

The reasons why I recommend this work are as follows:

  • Appealing characters: The unique and attractive characters draw the audience in.
  • Relaxation and laughter: Heartwarming scenes from everyday life and interactions between characters provide viewers with relaxation and laughter.
