8 | * AlwaysABiggerFish: In [[http://www.bunicomic.com/comic/buni-434/ this strip]]. |
9 | * AnimateInanimateObject: The occasional comic strip features this, which can be virtually anything. Examples include food, plants, abstract things such as rainbows and hearts, and [=BuniDad's=] coffee pot. |
10 | * BrokenAce: Buni's dog. |
11 | * AprilFoolsDay: [[http://www.bunicomic.com/comic/buni-812/ Bunigirl has the misfortune of asking Buni to come over on this date.]] |

14 | * ColoringInTheWorld: The titular rabbit decides one day to bring Technicolor to the drab black-and-white world of the bears. Unfortunately, instead of causing them to become joyfully rapturous from the sight, they instead all GoMadFromTheRevelation, with the final panel having a Hazmat team busily "disinfecting" the entire scene of all those toxic colors, subverting the trope. |
15 | * CosmicPlaything: Sometimes literally, when God himself comes down to mess with the titular character. |
16 | * CrapsackWorld: There are hints of this, but for the most part Buni is completely oblivious to it. |
17 | * DiedInYourArmsTonight: Buni accidentally [[http://www.bunicomic.com/comic/buni/ pierces a squirrel through the heart]] while he's practicing his aim with Cupid's love arrows. The arrow makes the squirrel [[DyingDeclarationOfLove profess its love to Buni]] before dying. |
18 | * DisproportionateRetribution: Take only one candy from the bowl on Halloween. Or your zombie costume will become much more... [[http://www.bunicomic.com/comic/buni-275/ realistic.]] |
19 | * DownerEnding: ALL THE TIME. |
20 | * TheFunInFuneral: Buni has been to a fair share of funerals, and there's always a quirk of black humor at each one. |
21 | * FunnyAnimal: Pretty much the whole cast. |
22 | * HighPressureBlood: When a rat wanders into a trap, your room will be painted red. |
23 | * HyperCompetentSidekick: Buni's dog has, on many occasions, faithfully defended Buni from the gnomes, prevented several misfortunes, and even tried to introduce good fortune. Also, he can drive. |
24 | * LoveHurts: The most frequently recurring theme of the comic. |
25 | * LudicrousGibs: Occasionally. |
26 | * MeetTheMeat: Several examples. A fresh sushi bar with an all fish staff, a steak restaurant with a cow waiter, cotton candy made out of unicorn fur and a pig selling hot dogs, to name a few. |
27 | * MonsterClown: The most frequently recurring clown isn't exactly "monstrous" in the traditional sense, but he's obviously a very unpleasant criminal. |
28 | * NamelessNarrative: The four named characters are Buni, [=BuniDad=], Dogi, and [=BuniGirl=]. No other characters are named, and if not for WordOfGod three of these four would be unknown as well. |
