Virtual Rabbit is Susumu Hirasawa's third solo album.

Virtual Rabbit was made in the same style as the previous two albums, although greater in scale, with compositions more in line with Hirasawa's later solo work, and with a larger focus on orchestral styled instrumentation. It explores reality, religion, science, and dreams.

With this album, Hirasawa continued to digitize his production methods, namely the switch to using Amiga software Bars & Pipes whose ability to handle hundreds of MIDI tracks freed Hirasawa from the constraints of the Korg M1's built-in sequencer and the studios' multitrack recorders. The use of guest musicians in the album is almost completely reduced to choral backing.

This was the first Hirasawa album to be engineered by Masanori Chinzei, who has since worked as engineer on all of Hirasawa's music.

All tracks written by Susumu Hirasawa, except "Bandiria Travellers" with string & choral arrangements by Hirasawa & Kayo "Kokubo" Matsumoto.
