Sugarbunnies (シュガーバニーズ, Shugābanīzu) are a character duo originally designed in 2004 for Sanrio by Kazumi Fukasawa (深沢和美).[2][3] The duo are composed of twin bunnies called Shirousa and Kurousa (both born on May 26), who specialize in making sweets and pastries.[4] After the success of the franchise, Sanrio created more bunny twins who each specialize in their own jobs. They all live in the magical world of Bunniesfield.
The characters gained a Japanese anime series in 2007. The series is directed by Hiroshi Kugimiya, the key animator of Death Note, and is a produced by Asahi Production. The original series premiered on TV Tokyo and Kids Station as a segment of the program Kitty Paradise Plus on April 3, 2007, and ended later that year after 27 episodes.
