I'm planning to watch Glasslip, but from reading some reviews and seeing its score, it made me rethink that it would be a waste of my time if I would to watch it.
But is it as bad as people say? And would it be a big waste of my time if I watched it?

never seen it so i can't tell you if it's worth watching, but what i DO recommend is Kanon (2006). i have a good feeling from your list that you will like it. wait until the winter season comes for maximum enjoyment, i watched it earlier this year when it was super cold and it felt like i was drinking some nice hot soup every night i watched it. very nice.

You're rather new to Anime, so I would say in you're case no it's not worth watching.

People have a hard time understanding what is going on the show and how it ended.

But are just hating because they are dumb, same reason why elites is hating on Clannad as they don't have any backstory and do not know how the light orb works.

It's a rather unique Romance/Drama show, it exist far more out there that you should spend you're time on. Rather then this Anime.

It's just a Okej show, and exist so much better Romance/Drama show to watch before this one.
It's one of those show you should save to last, when you have alreaady watched everything good. This is when you try this one out.

I never heard of Kanon before, but the plot does sound interesting. I'll put on my list.

I'm not really new to anime, I just haven't seen as much as you have lol.

And I might just remove Glasslip from my list.

Here's a straight short answer, don't waste your time on Glasslip. I watched it and felt cheated afterwards.
I also highly recommend Kanon.

I think that settles it, I'm removing Glasslip from my list. But what was so bad about Glasslip though?

It's not a bad anime at all. Glasslip is legit hated on because it is too confusing for some people. Confusing anime in itself isn't bad, but Glasslip is a romance drama anime. Somethig that not everyone would expect something confusing. So instead of trying to understand it, they blame the writing.

Actually Glasslip is not even that hard to understand. It's a pretty good show imo.

it is one of the worst anime i've ever watched. so probably not.
if you want good story, read novel. if you want good graphic, read manga. anime is beyond that.

As others say, it's plot is written in a confusing way but it's not that hard to understand either. So yeah, just read the summary somewhere and move on. It's a waste of time.

For me it's definitely a good romance anime, the art is amazing but one thing that makes me confused is the story, it's kind of confusing so you really gotta focus on it.

Note : This anime is more like those chill anime, so for y'all that gets bored quick I probably won't recommend it.

It is insufferably boring. Nothing exciting happens. I mean NOTHING. I love romance...and this is supposed to be romance...but I think two rocks have better chemistry than these lead characters...they just suck so hard. xD

I WANT THOSE SIX HOURS OF MY LIFE BACK. UGH.

The reviews kind of speak for themselves here, and people saying that the show isn't confusing are flat out lying to you. It's silly at best, and nonsensically at worse.

But I can more or less break this series down for you:

In typical PA Works' fashion, the setting and backdrop design are gorgeous. The town the series takes place in is lovingly and meticulously crafted to create the feel of a very realistic and warm small ocean town. The show is at its best when no one is talking or moving and the camera just pans over the gorgeous hi-def view.

As far as substance goes, there is next to none. PA Works has always relied on cute, quirky characters, light drama, and occasionally some light fantasy element subplots or something mixed in to create its own unique charm. Glasslip is possibly the most shallow, cheap imitation of that PA Works formula.

Instead of a close-knit group of friends marching through adolescence together (Example: Nagi no Asukara), they all end up seeming like sociopaths with incredibly unhealthy romantic obsessions with one another.

The story also doesn't seem to make much sense. Early on, the group splinters off when a new kid moves into town. Everyone seems to blame him, and all the weird chicken-hawk symbolism seems to confirm that. Only looking back on it, he didn't, and there's really no good reason why the group (who we are informed of over and over are all super besties) splits up so easily. This same thing can also be applied to the incredibly silly fantasy/sci-fi(?) subplot involving the two main characters. Apparently they can "see" and "hear" the future. At first only when doing certain things, and only together? Then at any time for no real reason? Then maybe it isn't the future? Then maybe it is?

FYI: All of these questions go unquestioned.

The only things this series has going for it is the OP and ED by Chochou and nano.RIPE. Everything else is forgettable.

as someone who has seen this show, if you want to experience an anime that disappoints you, then this is the show for you.
