The original series premiered on TV Tokyo and Kids Station as a segment of the program Kitty Paradise Plus on April 3, 2007, and ended later that year after 27 episodes.

On February 16, 2009, a third season was announced by Sanrio titled Sugarbunnies: Fleur (シュガーバニーズ フルール, Shugābanīzu Furūru), which started airing on April 7, 2009, and ended on September 29, 2009.

A manga adaptation by Kanaki Shiori titled Together Sugarbunnies (いっしょにシュガーバニーズ, Issho ni shugābanīzu) is published by Shogakukan, serialized in the Ladybug Comics Special label.

All three series gained a major DVD-box release in Japan by Pony Canyon, featuring all the episodes of all three arcs and both opening and ending songs never used in the anime itself.
