Synopsis
Rainbow (RAINBOW 二舎六房の七人, 2010) is a Japanese anime series you can watch online on iFILM, produced by Madhouse and based on the manga by George Abe and Masasumi Kakizaki. The story starts in 1955: Japan a decade after surrender, the cities still scarred and the streets full of teenagers with nowhere to go.
Seven juvenile offenders land in the same cell at Shounan Special Reform School — each with a different past, all equally disposable in the eyes of the institution. An older inmate, Rokurota Sakuragi, becomes the one anchor between them and the worst of what the guards can do. Over 26 episodes the series tracks how the seven hold on to each other — and to something like dignity — in a place designed to grind it out of them.
Not easy viewing. But it's one of the more emotionally honest anime dramas of its era. Stream all episodes of Rainbow online on iFILM.
