Synopsis

Bunny Maloney is a pink anthropomorphic rabbit, who is often blundering and over-confident. He lives in an apartment with his friends: Candy Bunny (another pink rabbit wearing a red scrunchie, who is also his girlfriend), Jean-François (a blue dog-like creature with a long tail, who can only say his own name), and a small, light blue pet named Potchi, who also serves as the ProtecTeam's mascot. They live in Bunnyville, a town that is the target of the infamous Professor Débilouman, their sworn enemy, assisted by Modchi. In almost every episode, the ProtecTeam fight Débilouman aboard their robot the Bunnyganger, with the help of an intelligent brown tanuki named Stan Ookie, or Débilouman will accidentally press a red button, both of which will cause Débilouman's submarine to sink, as a running gag. The series also includes popular culture and Japanese culture, such as manga and anime in its design, followed by manga iconography and instances of text being written with Japanese language.
