The purpose behind the border was more or less an experiment to see how it would look. What I learned was, it's difficult to make a sprite look smooth on the outside with a thick border. I still think it works for this guy because without it, it'd just be a simple animation with nothing exciting goin for it. So in the end, uniquity, was the purpose. Of course, uniquity, is not a word.
The thick outline is my favorite thing about this. Really adds a childlike quality to it. The bunny itself is pretty cute and nicely drawn. Only problem I see is that to me it doesn't really look like it's exerting any force when hopping.
