| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Well, this is certainly one of those series with a totally different field to it compared to the others i seen. It must be scary if you are in a bus with people whose faces are being covered and hands being cuffed. The Opening theme is pretty good though^^ So they lost the fight even though it's 6 against 1? 0.0 that guard who show up sure deserve a beating. |

| The OP is amazing... I had high expectations from Coldrain, but it blew those expectations away. Couldn't really understand too much watching it raw, except that I'll love the anime. |

| it looks interesting.. is it translated yet? |
| Woah woah woah, that opening was super awesome. Can't believe. I knew i picked the show right! It was awesome! |
| That OP was fairly awesome. I have a feeling that the wait for subs will be a long one. |
 |
| Well at least so far no gay-jokes around here... ^^° |

| Is anyone going to fansub this, I think this might be the only title this season that interests me. |
| Very AWESOME. |

Yup, as best as I know it, they will be subbing the show. Don't expect a fansub from Saizen to come out soon as what the current raw available is from streaming video on the net. They will most likely be waiting for the actual TV broadcast starting on 6 April to get hold of a better quality raw or the transport stream capture then. |
| I being wondering whole time during the anime.....Do you think Officer in the prison has the chance of becoming sadism??... I felt that this story's ending gonna be very sad.The seven word that crave in the tree really bother me.six plus one equal seven right?I wonder izzit their last word....When i listen back to the female Narrator,I notice that she uses past-tense..... |

| Best first episode of the season. 10/10 And Best animation/opening theme/MADHOUSE :D |
| Stay Home and Wash Your Hands. Protect Yourself. Protect Your Loved Ones. Protect Your Community and Help Defeat Coronavirus. |
| Indeed a very dark but touching first episode. Filled with desperation yet hopeful, how ironic. Heard that it's the mangaka's autobiography, but haven't confirmed it. The outcome of history had a tremendous impact on the lives of the children at that time. There is translation in Chinese. |
rswjc said: Heard that it's the mangaka's autobiography, but haven't confirmed it. Not the mangaka's autobiography, but heavily influenced by the experiences of the author of the story. In this case there was an individual author and an illustrator for the manga. The author was a yakuza himself, was involved in gambling, fraud, several fights and went to youth prison in the 50's himself. He always struggled to be an author, but had problems in the direct post-war Japan and got involved with the wrong crowd. So at least we can expect this to be more than a story pretending to know what it was like. |

| still eagerly waiting for subs... |
| Aargh, why is it taking so long for subs? C'mon, guys, I need my fix... |
Lind_L_Tailor said: Aargh, why is it taking so long for subs? C'mon, guys, I need my fix... This. I feel like bothering a few IRC channels right now. |
|
| Subs fucking where? A show comes out that's not about robots and magical jailbait, and nobody cares. |

Brand said: Same. I've watched other anime this season, but none of them seem very interesting. I'm looking foward to this anime!Is anyone going to fansub this, I think this might be the only title this season that interests me. |
| [Leopard-Raws] released a 476MB today, so maybe whoever is planning on subbing it was just waiting for a quality raw to surface before releasing...at least that's what I keep telling myself... |
   |
seeker1458 said: .. so maybe whoever is planning on subbing it was just waiting for a quality raw to surface before releasing ^ This. The show only had its proper TV broadcast last night. The streaming broadcast was earlier. The fansubbers prefer to work with better raws from the TV broadcast. Be patient. |
| This was one really good opening episode. Bit different than the manga, but since it had to end with the smoking scene, I don't mind the changes. And I'm espacially happy that they cut the doctor's "inspection" short...that was pretty disturbing in the manga. Anyway I have high hopes for this series. 5/5 |

It needed to be disturbing to make the point upfront that this show is not going to be tiptoeing through the more disturbing issues raised in the manga. |
| Well maybe part of the reason for me was that since I already read it in the manga, I just really didn't wanted to see it again -_- Though I think it will probably come up later anyway... |
|
| Watch the raws, then read the 1st chapter and see how much u got right!!! I did pretty well actually. Yeah, the doc scene was kinda gross, but it helped set the mood. /continue to wait for subs. |
| This one is based on a retelling of real life of George Abe, the author of the original story Rainbow, who spent his teenage days behind bars. This one will be your dark anime of Spring 2010, so I was expecting something like that, as disturbing as it looked in episode 1, more might follow. I dont read manga/novel, so I am not sure how disturbing it might get, but for a change, this anime is there for you. It seems like the entire anime industry is going all moe moe, happy happy with pantsu shots every the other scene. its difficult to find anime which can be a bit different, and makes you think, RAINBOW will certainly be one of those very few. I am following this anime. Edit: Also in IRC, i found out this one is being subbed and will be out soonish. |
| Stay Home and Wash Your Hands. Protect Yourself. Protect Your Loved Ones. Protect Your Community and Help Defeat Coronavirus. |
| Not the biggest fan thus far of 2010, nothing too outstanding for me personally, though that's not to say that a majority of the titles have faired baddly, as I have found a handful to be good. But Rainbow holds quite alot of potential and could end up being my first true favorite anime of 2010 |
| For me this anime was dark enough to realize how bad the scream was from that person during the doctor's Sasaki examination.....was that some anal thing? Ewww I would never want to go to prison at all. Ishihara should go die in a whole just the way he looks.....so terrible and also he is very cruel IMO. I too want subs to fully understand the story behind each character but so far I like the fighting of Sakuragi. I also think this anime will be great to learn the struggles of inside a prison with inmates and how they will go through it......was what Sakuragi smoking opium or something else? I am not sure there will be GIFs to be made but some fight GIFs might be nice just not this episode....with the dark texture and gloomy environment it will make something unique to look forward for me in this season. The team looks nice here=>  Series starts at 7 and let's see how much it will climb for me. |
 In spoiler my anime list for now. |
| Hell yes, that OP is so badass. Ugh...subs sometime soon please... |
 |
| Well, this looks promising. *_* |
 |
| The story looks really good. Looking forward to the subs! Won't bother watching the raw.. If there's a guy called Sakuragi there, then I have all the more reason to watch it. YEAH. |

| OP = Super BADASS Fucking win ! hear that Commie almost finish working the 1st eps... hope tommorow we already get the subs |
 |
| the best anime in this season and , there is just one fansub team who's working on it , and they are super late ; Hope some another famous team subs it 'cause really I don't wanna wait a week to get the subs for every single episode ù_ù |
 |
| I'm really looking forward to this show this season, but when in the world will it get subbed? |
| *waiting for subs* :'( |

| It's Just frustrating !!!! |

Maebara-Kun said: It's Just frustrating !!!! Don't be frustrated. Do something positive - like join one of those fansub groups to aid them in getting the fansub of Rainbow out. |
leongsh said: Maebara-Kun said: It's Just frustrating !!!! Don't be frustrated. Do something positive - like join one of those fansub groups to aid them in getting the fansub of Rainbow out. I would If I could ; but since I don't understand Japanese I really can't do anything + A great show like this should be subbed on time no matter what And I'm still frustrated ù_ù |
| |
| The only good show of this season, and nobody's subbing it ! I still can't believe it ! Everybody is subbing all that pinky-girly crap full of short mini skirts and revealing panties, yet nobody wants to sub a realy great show like Rainbow. I'm officially disgusted. And very angry too ! |
Don't talk to me about character development if Kaizuka Inaho or Slaine Troyard are in your favorites. |
| It's already been a week since the raws are out. |
SailorKagome said: T... yet nobody wants to sub a realy great show like Rainbow. There are 2 fansub groups currently working on it. Give them time. It should come out in another day or two. |
Traveller said: It's already been a week since the raws are out. That was a streaming raw which is low quality and not really usable if the fansub groups want to do a good job on it. The official TV broadcast was on 6 April (technically 7 April as it was broadcast at 1+ am). Thus, good quality raws were only available on 7 April at the earliest. Only 3 days since then. Just be patient. |
| The OP is awesome, I'm looking forward to subbed version. I've noticed that there are only 6 adults at the start of the OP, but I dont think that one of the boys will die. I've watched the OP again, and I've noticed that they show the adult versions of all of them when they show their crimes, and the one who isn't with them at the start of the OP is Anchan. Maybe he will be an antogonist, or something? I also wonder what will happen with Mario's hand, since it seemes like he only wears one glove in the OP. |

He's the mature head that keeps the rest focused on getting out alive. viral_hun said: I also wonder what will happen with Mario's hand, since it seemes like he only wears one glove in the OP. In due course you will know. |
