Rainbow: Nishakubou no shichinin

Around ten years after World War II, a group of juvenile delinquents are sent to Shounan Special Reform School, a type of juvenile prison, to deal with the atrocities and injustices they experienced during the war. There is already an inmate living there who is now trying to teach the youngsters about friendship and guide them through various difficulties that arise.

"Rainbow" did a great job of showing the bonding of the characters like no other anime before, in my opinion.

The story that is told is anything but boring and really captivated me.

The characters themselves are also beautifully written.

There is also a good drawing style.

Rainbow only doesn't get a 10/10 from me because I wouldn't mention it in my favorite animes, but that's more because there are simply anime series that have flashed me a lot more.

The anime is really HIGHLY recommended!

This is an absolute diamond in the rough. The first episode is slow and dark, yet throughout the 26 available episodes, you will trek through every emotion: anger, disgust, happiness, laughter, love, and sadness. It is a rollercoaster whose theme sticks through till the end.

I am SO glad I decided to give this show a chance and will recommend it to anyone looking for a story with true substance. Easily a 10/10.

Sabse alag tha ye poori zindagi yaad rakhunga 😭😭😭

Abhi toh aadha dekha h.

Ye Deere deere dark hota jata h .

I am writing this review too get attached to it forever.....forever

It's the most amazing one.

"Rainbow" tells the story of seven boys in a harsh reform school in post-WW2 Japan and their attempts to survive, escape and realize their dreams in the outside world. They have to deal with a sadistic guard and an abusive doctor that use their authority to make their lives miserable and destroy every ray of hope that they might have. In the process, their bonds grow stronger and stronger. In the 26 episodes of the anime, the story remains fast-paced and engaging, and by the end, we have a chance to see all the characters develop in interesting ways, and the story reach a powerful, satisfying ending. For me, this was one of those special series that you enjoy so much and remember the characters (and the author) with fondness (similar ones are "Kaiji" and "Akagi"). I strongly recommend it.

The history goes in a dark time, and even with the perils they continue fighting hard for their lifes. It's a very emotional anime.
