| Really great episode but all I could think while uncovered was talking was "Leorio stop being a dick" |
| Ugh, that shit hag makes me vomit Meg :( |
| I saw Rainbow 3 times and this episode is so fucking sad and disturbing... I never felt really sad watching something, just cry for feel pity on the character's history is something simple, a lot of anime have this, but when I finished, i realized how sad animes can be and how sad that "period" was, i just feel like finished something shocking like tv shows as "black mirror or how to get away with murder" you know? Something that make you think about. Is one of my fave episodes ever |
| Dammit..the feel is strong with this one..and it's only the 2nd episode! |
| Good job Meg! You don't have a mother, a father, and now you don't have a brother. Nice! Sincerely, I didn't feel all those feels... it's so exaggerated that I can't take it so serious... I was all the time "wtf..?".. Kuruwin said: I can't take shit seriously because it has such a ridiculous caricatures. Only way to make the pedophile adopting Meg more obvious would have been him saying aloud that he was going to stick it in her butt. So it seems I'm not the only one. |
 |
| Lol Meg is such a slutty bitch, she definitely wanted that old man's sausage stick, hope she gets it hard. |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| wow, it was a really good episode, better than the first one there are already so much intense just in episode 2! |
 If you watched 13 Reasons Why in 13 hours in a row (like me) you got my respect ! |
| Damn, I really hope that Meg manages to escape from the foster parent, because we all knew from the moment we saw him that he isn't going to be a good father. Poor Joe, he was raped by that old woman. Turtle's story was sad too, he lost his sister in the bombings. |
 |
| Sweet lord I think this anime is going to be 26 episodes of pure suffering. |

| Wow this touched my heart deeply I even cried for a while poor Jou, for a brief moment I thought that Meg gonna kill herself that foster looks like an animal hungry for lust damn it. |

What other choices she had? She did that so that he wouldn't try to escape prison again to try to save her and end up getting himself killed. The orphanage owner was so close to cutting him up with those scissors. She was just trying to save him. |

The orphanage owner was so close to cutting him up with those scissors. She was just trying to save him. Given the time period and various shit people have gotten away with just watching the anime. I highly doubt that they'd spend time to investigate what he said...especially since he's an orphan who has a criminal background. I mean didn't they send him to jail for defending himself from someone who was trying to violate him. What makes you so sure that they'd investigate it. Plus the lady hit him over the head with a cup to the point where he was bleeding and she still wasn't charged with anything. Like ..I'm having a hard time seeing how telling the officers what had happened would be any different. People who are the victim do often get punished even if they were defending themselves, and the perpetrators get to walk free. It's happened tons of times to me. It was just a tough and unforgiving time period and Meg accepted her fate and averted her brother from anymore hurt. |

The woman's reaction makes me say that, she was attacking him because she wanted to stop him from saying any more about the sexually abuse taking place in the orphanage, it was clear as day that she got worried the officers would discover what she was doing and face repercussions.Plus the lady hit him over the head with a cup to the point where he was bleeding and she still wasn't charged with anything. That was the police's inability to be anything but useful, and you should ask the author that question.Like ..I'm having a hard time seeing how telling the officers what had happened would be any different. I'm explaining it right now :PPeople who are the victim do often get punished even if they were defending themselves, and the perpetrators get to walk free. It's happened tons of times to me. It was just a tough and unforgiving time period I doubt that, domestic abuse, robbery, adultery and etc are not the same as pedophilia.and Meg accepted her fate and averted her brother from anymore hurt. One thing: Saving someone by stabbing them in the heart is not a good way to save someone. At least she'll enjoy some good sex now. |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| Dam it gonna feel bad for the sister... that foster father is obivously gonna pull something especially with those words about two siblings being puppets of adult greed. *shivers* |

She legit destroyed his last bit of hope. The cops were noticing something weird was going on and then she just ruins it. |

| wow what a great episode. very sad to see joe in that kind of state. couldn't imagine what he would've felt when his sister said those things |
 |
| okay that was deep ...they never had chance to stood up.... real world is really cruel |

| rip his sister virginity man. |
| Every time I start an anime like this one I tell myself that I'm 'ready' for whatever is about to come, but it always hurts. I'm not emotionally attached, at least not yet, to these characters to really suffer, but this was sickening, and really hard to watch. I thought that Bro was the mature one, he should've known that there was no way that Joe would make it out there, but maybe he just wanted to let him see his sister again, to help him. Just like Turtle, and the others. Turtle really walked far away from his home to survive that though, orphaned by war after having to suffer with an abusive, and alcoholic father... I know there is no way to compare suffering, and that this isn't even fair, but I was still more hurt with Joe and Meg's past. Abandoned by their mother in an 'orphanage', abused like that by that repulsive 'woman'... Enduring it all to be with his sister... And now she was sold to a man that is just as repulsive as if she were an object. The sad part is that she is resigned to be used in order to survive, and she is so young too, just like Joe was, to have to go through this... And she was really harsh with him too, but she was also suffering, I see it as the way she found to make him "forget" about her, and care more about himself, because as long as they are both alive, they can meet again. This is truly depressing, and the word doesn't even cover it. |

| This is gonna be 26 episodes of highlighting human sin. This show's got a dark vibe I'm really digging, but not everything is gelling with me. A subtle touch of twistedness in character design I can appreciate, but I hate that egregiously over-the-top "I'm a sinister fuck" meme where characters are drawn to look as despicable as possible. Let me find out how sinister they are when they do some sinister shit, will you? Some crazy good shit at any rate. I lost all my composure during that flashback scene when hentai baba was riding Joe. |

| Hard stuff, but as long as they keep grinding doing what's necessary to survive, there's still the chance for a tomorrow where both siblings can be together again. |

| Damn,he wasted his friends pains only... Kinda hurt, that man who adpoted her is like their director |
| That fuckin orphange director is a child rapist.... jesus christ poor Jou. Poor meg and jou, this episode was fucking sad as hell. I hope they end up reuniting. :/ |
 |
| Oh god Meg is one of those annoying characters |
| Floyd Mayweather English Tutor |
| Wtf, I feel so bad for Jou. I need some bleach after this. |
 |
| Part of me was expecting Meg to jump out her window and commit suicide during that crying scene. Some things seem over the top, others are sickeningly realistic to real life. I'm sure even if Meg hadn't butted in those cops wouldn't have done jackshit, they would have been bribed or turned a blind eye. Morality is dead during such cruel times. This episode reminded me of the movie Pixote. |
| Ugly filthy perverts raping children is seriously so sad. |
 |
| Damn, I know Megu said that because she was worried about Joe, she didn't want Joe to think about her all the time. |
 |
| Oh gosh. My little sister joined in watching exactly at the part where the Director of the orphanage was violating Joe. I hope this does not scar her for life. |
| “Why does an apple fall when it is ripe? Is it brought down by the force of gravity? Is it because its stalk withers? Because it is dried by the sun, because it grows too heavy, or because the boy standing under the tree wants to eat it? None of these is the cause.... Every action of theirs, that seems to them an act of their own free will is in the historical sense not free at all but is bound up with the whole course of history and preordained from all eternity.” ― Leo Tolstoy, War and Peace |
| oh man. it hit me hard when the 'dear night rainbow' soundtrack started playing as he was ushered out of the orphanage in the rain. i didn't expect this anime to actually have an ost of jou's makeshift lullaby as a full length song... this episode was super heavy, would have liked it to not be condensed within one episode and ending it off with jou inevitably getting that beat down but nonetheless it got the feels going. i don't see a happy ending for his sister at all. only relative is getting squashed in a juvenile facility, she probably has had little to no chances for a proper education if that ogre viking is the orphanage director, hafu, no inheritance, "adopted" (purchased) legitimately as a foster father's daughter, she's accepted it herself... i mean shit. gg least i got this nice soundtrack out of that hell hole |
| Loved the teamwork to let Jou escape the prison, but it didn't end well. Man, the little flashback we got between him and the director was disgusting. And the fact that it'll also happen to his sister just breaks your heart. These two need to reunite again. |
   “You yourself have to change first, or nothing will change for you!” ' |
| This is so fucked up. I've been searching for a good dark anime for some time now, but I think that I finally found it. |
| Very strong, sad episode. I was shocked they showed Hiroshima. Also shocked by the perverted hag. Of course the cops do nothing. Meg didn’t need to completely destroy her brother like that though. |
