Gift - Eternal Rainbow



Anime: Gift - Eternal Rainbow-Life
Type: Fantasy, Romance, Drama
Episodes: 1 - 12 + OVA
My Rating: 4 out of 5
My Grade: A-

Well, my friend just got into anime, and this was on his list of what he wanted to watch. I thought since it was a small series I would check it out as a break from some of the bigger anime series I have been watching. It was a pretty good one.

The start of the series is a nice classic flashback of the past of the main guy of the story. It gets off with a bit of a rough start. But despite that, it manages to introduce each character into the series throughout the 1st episode. From then on, until the last half, it has its funny moments but keeps to the storyline. I kind of felt they could have added more to the storyline but didn't want to stray too far from the main part. It is a short series worth watching. Not the greatest romance anime out there but well worth the time.

Basic Story:

In the town where an eternal rainbow hangs overhead, the people have an ability to grant one wish in their life time, but for this to work two hearts have to become one. This ability came to be known as Gift, for there is a Giver and a Receiver. Haruhiko is put into an emotional struggle once his foster sister, Riko, returns to town after many years of being apart.
