Hate to put it like this, but there is an overlying theme of friendship in both and similarly both slew of characters are in prisons. Where rainbow has a very compelling story and explicit + mature content, prison school is explicit in its own right and takes the comedic tropefilled route. Complete opposite of the spectrum in that regard.
Similarities:
+ Main characters are a bunch of students who committed crimes.
+ Main characters are trying to escape the prison.
+ Both stories are set mostly inside of a prison.
+ Both have extremely abusive prison officers, physically and sexually.
+ Both are very manly and are Seinen (aimed at adults).
+ Both get kind of romantic towards the end.
Dissimilarities:
- Rainbow is very dramatic and tragic, but Prison School is an Ecchi comedy.
- Rainbow's prison is a reformatory, but Prison School's is... A school prison. (DUH)
- The main characters' crimes in Rainbow were made to protect someone else, but the main characters' crime in Prison School was... not. (They sneaked

Though even though they are similar in concept, Prison School is comedy and Rainbow is drama, but you should still check it out nonetheless

Both have the theme of friendship and prisons, Rainbow in a mature way and Prison School in a ecchi-comedian way.
Both have the same Shawshank Redemption-esque theme (young men in prison), but genre-wise they are complete opposites in that Prison School is more of a laidback comedy/ecchi anime while Rainbow is a serious/dark historical drama that talks about the life of delinquents in the aftermath of WW2.
Funny enough, both deal with the theme of brotherhood and friendship in their own unique way (Prison school more humorously, Rainbow more seriously) and I enjoyed them despite the fact the mood was completely different in both. Both also feature an endearing cast of main characters who strive to prove their innocence and get out of prison.
for those who like the prison theme, both have it, but Rainbow has a more serious footprint while prison school is funny and have ecchi, and in addition there are similarities in some little things as characters and part of the plot
pra quem gosta de tema de prisão, ambos possuem esse tema, porém Rainbow tem uma pegada mais séria, já prison school mais voltada pra comédia e ecchi, e além disso possuem semelhanças em algumas coisinhas como personagens e uma parte da trama
