Keep in mind that RAINBOW takes place during the post WWII reconstruction period where the rules and regulation still weren't quite in place to protect the democratic rights of adolescent and young adults in juvenile detention centers. Of course there are still abuses even now, but the oversight then was nothing compared to what it is now if it really even existed in a functional capacity.

Spoiler for eps 9:

it seems a bit too easy to scare Ishihara and Sasaki with a little lie, and they did not try to search the escaped boys, which does not make sense

so this will turn into a boxing show, with Sakuragi become Mario's manager

Spoiler for Ep 9:

Because they assumed that Sakuragi would reveal their deeds soon and they had to run away before that.

[thesebzgal]

darned official website doesn't have too much love in it.
...and yay Funi!

you can all grab some screencaps from me if you like!

Spoiler for Episode 9:

YEAH! GO JOE!

Spoiler for eps 10:

Ishihara and the sick doctor finally make their move

i was worrying that something will happen to that nurse... but i guess this is not that kind of show

[Kanon]

Spoiler for 8:

Well, that was fast. I didn't think they'd get out of prison the facility so easily. Well, not that easily I guess, since three people had to be sacrificed.

Sasaki is so disgusting, yuck. Looking at the preview, it looks like Joe got caught...? He better protect his ass.

Spoiler for episode 10:

I know I was thinking throughout the first half of the episode "oh no they are going to kill her" I'm glad they didn't that would have pissed me off. I hope Sakuragi wins the little fight in the street with Ishihara next episode it will be very saddening to see him get badly hurt or killed.

[Kanon]

Spoiler for 9 & 10:

Haha, Joe's got some balls. Loved the way he threatened Ishihara and Sasaki.

So many death flags raised by Sakuragi in episode 10... don't talk about making your girlfriend happy at such a critical moment, oi! There's the photo too... It would so cruel to kill him now, after he finally found a bit of happiness.

Spoiler for eps 11:

Sakuragi did win the fight as expected, Ishihara even with weapons cannot beat him, sadly the preview seems to indicate Sakuragi will die

but i think everyone forgot about the kind warden (killed by Ishihara) who helped the guys...

[Kanon]

Spoiler for episode 11:

Why the hell did Sakuragi give the suicide note to Ishihara? Not only is he betraying his late friend Hagino by doing this, it quite obviously doesn't guarantee the safety of the others. Without this hanging over their heads, Ishihara and Sasaki are free to resume their "activities". It really seemed out of character and stupid for Sakuragi to do that.

The preview is so strongly hinting he will die that I'm starting to think he will survive

[Casshern]

Spoiler for ep11:

Because the only alternative would be to kill him. He probably thought that if he gave Ishihara the note it would lift his despair and he would return to his senses, but by then Ishihara was already insane.

If you want to question Sakuragi's motives you only need to ask why the hell did he tell Ishihara that he knows he and Sasaki drove Hagino to suicide, while he was still at their mercy. Also, why didin't he go straight to the police after he had recovered? He probably would have been detained again for escaping, but at least Sasaki and Ishihara would've been locked up.

Btw, why are we talking in spoilers? If the episode has aired it's ok to talk about it openly.

Anyway... My fav moment of the entire series so far was Baremoto's monologue when he was being chased during Sakuragi's escape, about why they call him Baremoto. Imo he's by far the most interesting character, and the one with the most development. My second fav moment was Joey putting Ishihara and Sasaki in their place. To see the originally meek and sensitive Joey strutting his stuff and talking down to those malicious criminals was gratifying in a very fanservicey kind of way.

Soldier has proven to be the coolest character by far in my eyes. He's the most composed, most rational, as well as being amongst the most physically and mentally tough. Truly the ideal soldier.

OMFG... episode 12 made me cry

Spoiler for I was suspicious:

About losing Sakuragi in some point, but i never imagine that i would be in that way... it was so dramatic and beautiful

[Goty]

Jesus, episode 11 was just excruciating to watch.
Sakuragi isn't even a super developed character but all this shit with Sasaki and Ishihara is really getting to me.

Btw, does anyone know how many volumes they covered already?

Episode 11 covers up to 3/4 of Volume 5.

[SuperKnuckles]

Spoiler:

Considering the insane evil of Ishihara, I knew this couldn't end well. That and the overzealous police and all the circumstances against Aniki.. He was such a great man and he really shouldn't have blamed himself for the suicide of his father. To me, that guy is a saint. Bless him. lol. This kind of loss to me is definitely up there with Kamina and Joe Yabuki and Tooru Rikishi's deaths

Spoiler for 12:

It looked like he was in a semi-conscious state, because of the stab. His death could have been avoided if the soldiers hadn't been freaking idiots.

I didn't expect a timeskip this soon. Ishihara is in such a pitiful state killing him would almost be an act of mercy. I'm more interested in Sasaki right now, I hope his downfall will be satisfying.

PS: Setsuko looks very cute with long hair.
