About Barakamon

After punching a famous curator in the face for criticizing his work as "textbook and lifeless," Handa Seishuu is sent to Gotō Island to calm his nerves and find new inspiration for his calligraphy. Growing up in the city all his life, though, Handa must adapt to country life while meeting an assortment of quirky people during his tenure.

Barakamon runs for 1 season. Every episode page keeps the show's order, so you can watch from the pilot to the finale without hunting for the next link. Episodes are bought individually for 1 credit.
