Amazon Video streams The Great Passage this autumn

Currently airing noitaminA show hits the UK

Written by A. H. on 15 Oct 2016



It's easily forgotten in the midst of Crunchyroll's slew of streaming fare every season, and it certainly isn't helped by a lack of promotion, but Amazon continue with their deal to offer up every season's new noitaminA show on their Prime Video service and that run continues with The Great Passage this autumn.

Based on a Japanese novel about two men as they seek to publish a new dictionary, here's the plot synopsis for the show as Amazon have it:

"I'm just saying 'read the air' a little more.""You are using 'air' to mean situation."

Mitsuya Majime, an awkward salesman, and Masashi Nishioka, an easy-going dictionary editor meet by coincidence. Genbu Book's veteran dictionary editor Araki is looking for a successor. He hears about Majime from Nishioka and decides to meet him.This is a story about the clumsy people who live for words.

The first episode of the series is available now, and you'll be able to find the show as it's streamed on this Amazon page.
