----
=== ''[[Rainbow Nisha Rokubou no Shichinin]]'' provides examples of: ===
* [[Adults Are Useless]]: The only good adult is the ineffectual warden Kumagai, otherwise they are all pretty useless or [[Complete Monster|much worse]].
* [[Badass]]: Sakuragi.
Line 66 ⟶ 64:
* [[The Power of Friendship]]: Basically the whole point.
* [[Rape as Drama]]: Several times--this is a [[Prison Rape|prison]] after all. These poor kids get molested before we even learn any of their names!
* [[Reasonable Authority Figure]]: Kumagai.
* [[Shmuck Bait]]: Does putting "Explicit" in bright red in the disclaimer before every episode qualifies?
* [[Shout-Out]]: Chapters from the manga are all named after songs, with everything from "Born to Be Wild" to "My Immortal." Artist credits are given at the end of each tankoubon; the mangaka seem particularly fond of Helloween.
Line 76 ⟶ 74:
* [[Surprisingly Good English]]: The Americans seem to be voiced by native speakers.
* [[Tattooed Crook]]: Cabbage
* [[Took a Level Inin Badass]]: {{spoiler|It at first seems that Joe is going to sleep with Sasaki so as to retrieve the keys to help the prisoners escape from the cell. Instead, he chokes the guy, ties him up, and leaves him there naked, taking the keys with him! Joe, the delicate bishonen from earlier who would let anyone walk over him!}}
* [[Where Are They Now? Epilogue]]: Towards the end of the first half of the series, the main characters are shown leading their own lives after their escape from the prison and {{spoiler|Anchan dies}}: Soldier joins the military, Joe works as a band's assistant while struggling to become a singer himself, Turtle sells various items on the black market, Cabbage works for a construction company, Scam goes to high school, and Mario works as a bartender. {{spoiler|This happens again at the series' actual end. Soldier is married to Meg and becomes a guard at the Shonan reform school, Joe is a popular singer running from screaming fangirls, Turtle has his own business, Cabbage is living in Hawaii with his wife Ruriko, Scam seems to have successfully become a lawyer, and Mario is in America, driving down Route 66.}}
