Hapi Buni is a dark comic about an optimistic bunny with terrible luck. Always positive, Buni doesn’t understand that the cute world he lives in is usually out to get him. The girl he loves, loves someone else. And his best intentions never seem to work. Yet he wakes up each day, hoping for the best. He also lives with his cynical father who is the opposite of Buni.
Hapi Buni is one of the most optimistic characters I've encountered. He chooses to see even the worst possible scenario from a positive angle. Even in situations where his unrequited love makes the reader feel sad for him. Contrarily, his dad is a cynic, so they produce some funny scenes together.
This slice of life dark comedy features cute illustrations and shows the life of Hapi Buni, who is constantly in bad luck. I got facepalm moments from his naivety. There are times I could empathise and hope things get better for him. Mostly, this comic made me smile. Sometimes, this comic even made me wish I was as naive as Buni, reminded me of such people I know and contemplate over life in general.
At first look, this may seem like a simple webtoon. It's about a bunny who is optimistic despite the horrible cards that life deals him. Buni's dad is a realist and badass. This simple and beautiful book made me laugh and smile. This is one of my happy books. The artwork is cool!
Dear author, this has been an amazing journey. It's been a pleasure. Please keep up the good work. Much love!
