Plot

The Sunny Bunnies are a group of magical bunnies spawned from the sun. In each episode they appear in seemingly randomly chosen locations, ranging from the local park and various other places throughout the world. During these endeavors, the characters are usually at odds and clash, leaving a trail of chaos and destruction in their wake. As opposed to most other preschool-oriented shows, Sunny Bunnies heavily utilizes absurdist humor and slapstick to drive its comedy.

At the end of every episode, several "bloopers" are featured, either showing something happening during the episode's in-universe production or a clip from the episode itself. The series puts a heavy focus on the main five, their personalities, their semi-dysfunctional relationship with one another, and their dynamics.

Characters

Main

• Turbo (the orange bunny, voiced by Dmitri Davidovich) is the overprotective, short-tempered and occasionally arrogant designated leader of the other bunnies. He is caring, intelligent, and self-confident, but a little bossy and controlling. He usually serves as the straight-man to the madcap antics of the others. He is 5 years old.
• "Big" Boo (the pink bunny, voiced by Dmitri Davidovich) is the oldest bunny at 6 years old. He is the largest bunny in the group, and loves ice cream, to the point that in some episodes, he's rarely seen without it. Sometimes he appears to be clumsy, but he is actually smart and kind, although a bit distracted at times.
• Iris (the purple bunny, voiced by Svetlana Tsimokhina) is one of the most intelligent bunnies. She has a younger sister named Shiny, and they tend to do everything together. She always wears a large pink bow (with light pink dots) and doesn't like it when her bow gets lost or stolen. Iris understands magic and is 4 years old.
• Shiny (the light blue bunny, voiced by Svetlana Tsimokhina) is a kind-hearted and sensitive bunny. She always wears a flower clip on her head. Shiny is sisters with Iris, and spends most of her time playing with her. She is also 4 years old. She is the only bunny to have hair resembling that of a human.
• Hopper (the green bunny, voiced by Svetlana Tsimokhina) is 2 years old. Despite his cute demeanor, he is the most mischievous, short-tempered, and impatient member, and most of the show's comedy is driven by his antics, practical jokes and the mayhem that he generates, especially in early episodes. He also has a problem with greed and letting his impulses dictate his actions, but usually has a good heart.

Recurring

• The Big Gray Wolf (voiced by Dmitri Davidovich) is the main antagonist of seasons 2 and 3. Debuting in the episode of the same name, the wolf comes from the moon and formulates many plans to trap and eat the Bunnies, but always gets fooled or loses them, often in humiliating fashions.
• Robot S-Marty (voiced by Dmitri Davidovich) is a new resident in Sunny Park, introduced in season 5. S-Marty is an orderly and punctual robot who keeps an eye on the bunnies and how tidy the park they roam is.
