Well that arc is over, so it will be weird starting up a new one in the last episode O.o lets see how that goes.

I felt bad for the old man for losing his three sons. I was wondering why they didn't tell turtle that she had became an in house maid though; my guess is just to toy with him.
...So he is also a little brother now, huu?...

Lol I loved that to " I don't know what you are saying" There were like twenty times when americans where talking to mario and all this time he didn't know what they were saying lol?

I hear Rainbow is going to be extended to 51 episodes.

This episode was very well done. Glad It wasn't highly dramatic like the previous episodes were. This episode was "nice" nothing over the top, just nice.

The show will end with a "filler ending" because after Turtle's arc, it supposed to be soldier's arc, but now they are showing Mario going back to boxing? what the hell? the show has been canon for 25 episodes, why noncanon it now? damn you Madhouse!

Finally an old man who isnt evil, I admit this series with its mini arcs was getting lesser and lesser interesting, but I did really enjoy this arc.

Ive seen the manga raw, never could find it translated, But there are 22 volumes in total, and going by images, this arc is the end of volume 10, so 11 would be Soldiers and then on normally so. But I cant tell if Marios boxing in the final is canon or not. Still youd dthink they just opt to break and then make a season 2.

lol @ Mario and Jeffrey's conversation. Mario's looking at him like he understands then all of the sudden "Listen, I don't understand a word you're saying".

Aw, there's only one more? Seems kinda weird to jam everything into one last episode. Maybe they'll be an extension? Or a second series (doubt this).

I dream to be a old man just like the one in this anime. Helping the next generation is exactly what it means to be old. I'm glad Rainbow is coming around again, there were some slumps/bumps on the way but I hope the last episode will be a bang. It sure is weird to tie everything up in just one episode though, but we'll see.

I have no words to describe how wonderful this arc was. It's just too bad that the series had to have such an abrupt ending even if the last episode does look interesting (canon or not). I will miss Soldier's arc.

Loved this episode ^^ Mario and Jeffrey convo = lol.
Was kinda obvious that the old man took Lily in as a maid of sorts, not as a prostitute. Suppon's reaction was still great. Glad his health is okay, for now anyway. And the whole sibling thing is very heartwarming. love it.

Damn, I didn't see that coming. I was so sure the old man was going to use her for his own personal benefit. It's nice to know that there are still some good adults within their fucked up society.

Now it's finally time for the finale. Though I felt that it could have ended in episode 14, let's see how well the actual ending delivers.

Wow Sugi is such a nice old man ;_; he helped not only Suppon, but Lily too. So his sons are MIA? Hopefully they will return one day >< I'm also very glad that there's nothing wrong with Suppon atm. And Mario, such a troll. I love how he just laughs at Suppon because his reaction is just like what he had in mind. Heartwarming episode ^^

Oh my goodness, Turtle walking back with that big guy has to be one of the best moments of this series. It's been alright after they left the prison, and they built their way up. I wonder how they're going to end it.

That miss-communication between Jeffry and Mario was funny :3

Lily and Mario laughing at Turtle was great ;)

This story about Turtle and Lily is one of my favorite ones after the first half of the series. It's to bad Solider never got an arc so I will just assume that his Military duties went well.

That was actually a satisfying ending to a decent arc. There were plenty of good moments, and besides the general guy doing a non-foreshadowed face-heel turn, the drama and resolution felt more realistic. Not perfect by any means, but good enough. Turtle's dilemma with his possible radiation-induced cancer made sense because they had subtlety foreshadowed it ever since his character's introduction. Historically, even people in the area around the atomic bomb's explosion, in the fallout range, came down with radiation related illnesses like cancer. But yeah, not a bad episode compared to most of the episodes after the reformatory arc.

Pretty sure it'll come back down the line unfortunately >< But we won't be seeing any of that.

He bit his foot and the guy and his friends don't kick his ass after he lets go, but instead obeys him? Ehh. For the plot I guess.

I guess I'm glad this arc ended on a good note though. One more episode to go!

All is well with Turtle and Lily now. That's good. Sugi is awesome.
So, apparently, next episode is filler, and it's the last.
Well, let's see how this will end. Poor Soldier didn't get his arc.

Suppon and Lily are going to be a great family, he found a big sister.
He bit that guy to make him go to Sugi.
Ant speaking about Sugi, he is still waiting for the return of his boys from war, that's sad.
