Daily Obscure/Underrated Anime Recommendation Number Seventy-One
Rainbow: Nisha Rokubō no Shichinin (INTENSE TRIGGER WARNING THIS ONE IS INTENSE AND SUPER MATURE AND ADULT PLEASE VIEWER DISCRETION IS ADVISED)
(Story: Japan, 1955: Mario Minakami has just arrived at Shounan Special Reform School along with five other teenagers who have been arrested on serious criminal charges. All assigned to the same cell, they meet older inmate Rokurouta Sakuragi—a former boxer—with whom they establish a close bond. Under his guidance, and with the promise that they will meet again on the outside after serving their sentences, the delinquents begin to view their hopeless situation in a better light.
The seven cellmates struggle together against the brutal suffering and humiliation inflicted upon them. Facing such hellish conditions, the seven inmates must scrape together all the strength they have to survive until their sentences are up; but even if they do, just what kind of lives are waiting for them on the other side?)
(Genre: Prison Drama, Suspense)
(Released 2010; 26 episodes; TV-MA for sure)
(Notes: PLEASE THIS ONE HAS SCENES AND THEMES THAT CAN BE UPSETTING FOR ALOT. The writing and characters are spectacular but geez. If you're sensitive or easily triggered and even if you arent, proceed with caution or not at all. I'M SERIOUS ABOUT THESE WARNINGS PLEASE NO ONE UNDER 18 SHOULD WATCH THIS AND EVEN THEN, ADULTS PROCEED WITH CAUTION. It's a good show but still. It's set in prison. So.. Ah, this one is animated by Madhouse too. Y'know, One Punch Man season one.) Read Note

Murder Princess [WARNING: This one is especially violent and graphic; viewer discretion is advised]
(Story: The story begins with Dr. Akamashi, introduced as a scientist formerly in the employ of the government, launching a coup d'état in the Forland Kingdom. Dying, the mortally wounded king sends his daughter Alita to find Prince Kaito, who is leading a diplomatic mission and its military escort abroad. She flees from the castle and reaches a forest on the country's border.
While running, the princess falls off of a cliff and onto Falis, an infamous female bounty hunter. Due to the nature of the near-death experience (referred to as a spiritual commutation, or spiritual transmigration in the anime dub) the souls of Alita and Falis are switched. After Falis dispatches the forest's guardian beast, Alita pleads with the bounty hunter to protect the Forland kingdom, offering herself, body and soul, as collateral. Falis agrees and acts as the princess of the Forland Kingdom with her bounty hunter friends.)

(Released 2007; OVA; 6 episodes; TV-MA)
