Usagi is the Japanese word for rabbit. Usagi broken down is U.S.A. - G.I.
The original comic was called CS1, but when it was released in the US, it was called Apocalypse Meow.
The episode hasn't officially been released in the US yet.

I had the thoughts of U.S. in my mind while I watched it and then They brought the Hind in for close air support and rescue and just laughed. Then I thought, Hum....Multinational force, U.N., then thought Naw, the UN would NEVER have enough balls to do something like that.

I just hope the pilot does well enough for them to create an entire season. I loved the action.

* American – Rabbit (Rabbit in Japanese is:USAGI".In a word"USA-G.I.") * Vietnamese – Cat * French – Pig (from pig that looks for French Ingredient truffle) * Chinese – Panda * Japanese – Monkey and Gorilla * Russian – Bear * Korean – Dog (from dog dish "Bosintang") * British – Rat (from The Desert Rats) * Australian – Kangaroo * German – Fox (from Desert Fox) * Middle Eastern – Camel, Goat and Sheep * Latin Americans – Cow
The depiction of Americans as rabbits is actually a pun on the Japanese word for rabbit. The Japanese word for rabbit is "うさぎ", which can be romanized as "usagi", or USA GI.
The British characters were depicted as rats to honour the Desert Rats, the nickname of the World War II British 7th Armoured Division. Similarly, the Germans were depicted as Foxes to honor Field Marshal Erwin Rommel, nicknamed the Desert Fox. Koreans were associated with dogs because of their culinary proclivity for the canine species.
