A Dark Rabbit has Seven Lives is a story best experienced in the light novels. Both the anime and manga went to great lengths to condense the story down, and it didn’t make for the best story experience since both the anime and manga also ended the stories inconclusively.

Furthermore, if you enjoyed the ample ecchi fan service in the anime, you will not find that in the light novel or the manga.
In short, if you enjoyed the A Dark Rabbit has Seven Lives story, you should read the light novel from the beginning.
