In the second episode of BNA season 1, titled "Rabbit Town," the focus shifts to a new setting in the series - a rabbit-only town called Anima City. The episode begins with the arrival of the protagonists, Michiru and Shirou, at Anima City as they seek refuge from the human world where they are hunted for being beasts.
As they enter the town, they are greeted by the sight of rabbits of all shapes and sizes going about their daily business, from a rabbit postman to a construction crew made up entirely of rabbits. The town is full of life and energy, and Michiru and Shirou find themselves immediately captivated by the vibrant atmosphere.
However, they soon discover that all is not well in Rabbit Town. In the city's center stands a giant statue of a rabbit, worshipped by Anima City's inhabitants as their protector and savior. Michiru becomes intrigued by the statue and asks a passing rabbit about its significance.
The rabbit explains that the statue is a symbol of the promise made by the creator of Anima City - a human scientist named Michio Kagemori. Kagemori developed a serum that allowed animals to transform into humans and vice versa, and he promised to create a utopia where all creatures could live in peace and harmony.
However, things didn't go according to plan. After Kagemori's death, the city fell into chaos as different factions fought for control of the serum and the power it granted. The rabbit explains that the statue represents the hope that one day, Kagemori's dream will be realized and Anima City will become a true utopia.
Michiru is immediately drawn to the idea of a utopian society and decides to investigate the situation further. As she explores the town, she overhears a group of rabbits discussing a mysterious figure called 'the silver wolf,' who they believe is responsible for causing trouble in the town.
Michiru is intrigued and decides to follow the rabbits to see if she can uncover more information. She soon discovers that the silver wolf is actually a young wolf girl named Nazuna, who is being hunted by the city's authorities for stealing a valuable artifact.
Michiru realizes that Nazuna is innocent and decides to help her clear her name. Together, they embark on a quest to uncover the true culprits behind the theft and clear Nazuna's name.
As the episode progresses, Michiru and Nazuna encounter various obstacles and challenges, including a thrilling chase scene through the forest and a confrontation with a mysterious organization that seems to be manipulating events in Anima City for their own gain.
Ultimately, Michiru and Nazuna succeed in their mission, clearing Nazuna's name and bringing the true culprits to justice. The episode concludes with the two girls looking out over the city and pondering the future of Anima City - and whether Kagemori's dream of a true utopia will ever be realized.
Overall, "Rabbit Town" is a fast-paced, action-packed episode that introduces viewers to an intriguing new setting and sets the stage for further exploration of the themes of identity, society, and justice that are central to the show.
