Rainbow: Nisha Rokubou no Shichinin. This anime goes into the dark theme of seven teenagers forced to suffer for their crimes in a detention facility just after the WWII. The story follows these seven teenagers in trying to survive the cruelty of the warden and the detention center in general. The story progression may be a bit slow at times but it surely delivers. Story: 8/10
The theme of the art is generally dark which makes perfect sense for what it is trying to portray. The animation is superb and the style is very suiting. Art: 9/10
The sound, even though nothing too unique or amazing, was
...
pretty enjoyable to say the least. Most of the soundtracks were suited for the occasion and used very well. Sound: 8/10
In my opinion, the best part of this anime are the characters and character development. In terms of side-characters it may have been sub-par as side-characters weren't given too much attention and development. However, it more than made up for this fault by the development and illustration of the main characters, which there were seven of. As these characters are made to be real life like, you can relate to each one and would generally take a liking to most, if not all, of them. In terms of main characters, this anime does it especially well. Character: 9/10
In terms of enjoyment, Rainbow certainly succeeded to keep me entertained throughout the series. It manages well to play well with your emotions where you would find yourself smiling whenever something pleasant happens, angered or sorrowed whenever during a woeful moment and sitting on the edge of your seat for the most part. Enjoyment: 9/10
Do I recommend this anime? Yes, definitely a must-watch. Overall: 8.4/10
