So...anyone seen any weird stuff about evil things that horribly mutilate school kids and people and evil bunnies that eat people?

This is that anime.
The bunnies only come in the last episode and it's the third in what is called the Blood series, which as far as I can tell is an excuse to have a hot girl kill things with a sword. Looking up what I can, this is basically a separate series, with only a name, some of the main character's background, and weapon of choice being similar.

I don't really think there's a reason to watch the other parts of the series...there might be, but unless I see the others, I can't say that it's important. The way things are set up, there is an obvious mystery to the series, one that makes things interesting, even with the gore. Much of the fear comes the mystery and the monsters, who indiscriminately kill whatever gets in their way, and the setup, once you realize it, makes the show worth a watch, if only because of the creative ways people get killed.

The series itself feels odd and honestly I like it for the mystery, as well as the twist that we finally get by the end. The horror elements of what's going on, the hints of what is really happening, means that when things take their turn and change, you want nothing more than to find out what happens, and to see the final end. A good series to binge, since it's only 12 episodes, and the monsters themselves have some pretty neat designs.
