Rainbow: Nisha Rokubou no Shichinin is THE best anime I have ever watched so far.

Story - 10/10 The story followed 6 young people who were sent to shonen reformatory and the struggles they go through. I think it's based on how important friendship is, and I usually don't really care about that because it's so common, but the ties between the characters in Rainbow is are just so touching and heart warming... It is filled with drama and the storyline is just so great. There's some cheesy parts here and there but they're well done. There's very little anime that interests me as much as this one. I really like the setting too, because a lot of animes now adays are about people in school, or a harem, or people with super powers. Rainbow is a nice change of pace, since it was set in a dark prison place and after a war in Japan.

Art - 9/10 I know everyone has different tastes in art, but a lot of anime art icks me. I really liked the art in this anime though, it's clean and doesn't have the oversized eyes stuff. The body proportions are well done too, since a lot of anime make the female characters look like 10 year olds and give them eyes that take up half of their head and a tiny body. However, it may take a few episodes to get used to it if you're used to watching anime with big eyes/colored hair/ etc...

Sound - 10/10 I really liked the opening song. It fit the anime really well, and the songs played at each scene also fit the mood. The soundtracks in this anime were really epic and beautiful.

Character - 9/10 The characters here aren't the usual Mary/Gary Stu or Tsunders, they have real personalities, and in realistic personalities have flaws. Each of the characters have their own flaws, but flaws are what makes a character lovable. Another thing I like is that they didn't make the male characters all "bishies" or extremely good looking. I gave it a 9/10 instead of a 10/10 because sometimes I feel that the antagonists are such completely screwed up @ssholes that it's not really realistic. It's like they're 100% evil with no ounce of non-evil in them xD.

Enjoyment - 10/10 hands down. Didn't bore me, didn't annoy me, kept me longing for the next episode until I found out there was no more...

Overall - 10/10 I can't believe how this show isn't that popular. This is definitely the best anime I have ever watched (so far)
