Can we have a thread about this piece of shit?
How did a studio like P.A. Works manage to fuck up so spectacularly in between great shows like Nagi no Asukara and Shirobako?
No you can't have a thread. I forbid it

You're asking how a mediocre studio fucked something up?

Simple, PA Works is a lot like Windows in regards to the quality of their releases. Good, bad, good, bad, etc.
Charlotte was bad, which means their Hibike ripoff show is going to be good
Why do people think it's bad? It wasn't bad, it's just that nothing happened.
There wasn't a single thing bad about the show and I dare you to prove me wrong. Pro tip, you can't.
Should I watch this so that I can understand all the terrible things I've heard? Is it necessary for the P.A. Works experience to watch the duds?
I didn't know the meaning of 'nothing happens' until I watched this anime.

Well if that's your bar for quality I'm surprised that you're disappointed.
I dropped it after three episodes with zero regrets. It was a dead show on /a/ halfway through the season until the end where the few that trucked through it got rewarded with nothing for their time.

There was that lesbian bitch who made best boy feel like shit but i don't know what happened after that because i dropped it.
Still the undisputable best backgrounds.
I can't believe I watched all 12 episodes of this.
What was the ending even about again? It was all their imagination?

i will fight you on that statement
Anyone have that cool glassblowing webm?

Same anon, I have never once felt watcher's remorse before until Glasslip. Goodness knows why I didn't drop it before
It felt like they just forced this piece of turd out because felt obligated too, Specially after the amazing NNA.
It had no story at all it was just a jumbled fucking mess with romance events in it.

>prove me wrong
Oh boy here we go
First of all, the expectation horizon was all messed up. The series was hyped as something with relevant supernatural events. In the end the psychic powers really had no impact on the story, other than last episode psychedelic trip which could have been resolved otherwise.
Not only that, the psychic powers were poorly handled. Most of the visions were really not necessary or straight-up misleading. I remember there was a metaphorical scene about train collision, but as you yourself say, nothing really happened, so the foreshadowing was empty.
Most of the characters, especially the main EEEEH character was unoriginal and empty. Not to mention the sad case of Davido-kun, who was clearly set up as an interesting romantic rival, but in the end turned out to be strange autist who blabbed deep dialogue which was only cringe-worthy.
Series had no satisfying conclusion, and even though that is very common in anime, you cannot exactly classify it as a positive feature.
Ending song by ear.rape.
I admit it was pretty, that's why I bothered to go trough it in the first place. But if I wanted just something pretty, looking at the picture in >>134551982 would give me more satisfaction than the series. It was just underwhelming series that didn't finish anything it started. That's why people say "nothing happens", but that's really not the point: worst thing about Glasslip is that it clearly wants something to happen, and things start with implications of drama and supernatural events. And then it sort of halts, becomes a combination of still images and autistic character archetypes. It's empty, without meaning, without destination. That's why the image you posted reads as it reads: you survive Glasslip because it's a series like Pandora's box, with slight hope that something worth your time will eventually occur, but nothings really there even though there are glaring holes where development should normally be.

I admit I've recently started to like nna because ost and visual design, but it's pretty shitty mess and only a bit higher in a tier-list than glasshithanasaku mvp

>great shows like Nagi no Asukara and Shirobako?
>great shows
Nagi asukara was a piece of shit written by okada, the only good things was the art and the music, Shirobako had a garbage plot, the only good thing was that you get to know more about the anime "industry"

>implying anyone is going to read all that shit
fuck off autist
>>134552828
Nice arguments.
>>134551464
I heard it was originally supposed to be 2 cour, but was cut down sometime during production.
I feel that had it been allowed to be what they originally planned, it would have ultimately been seen to rival NnA in beautiful melodrama greatness.
They took their time setting up a world and characters (like many great shows do), then had to quickly scrape together some sort of ending turning it into `literally, nothing happens the anime'.
It's really a shame because it's just dripping with the same sort of potential actualized in NnA.
I still enjoyed it though.
>>134551464
Honestly speaking?
Glasslip was better than Charlotte.
If nothing else, at least there was romantic development between the MC and the leading love interest, and in these types of shows, that's the thing that matters the most.
>>134552846
I was just answering a person who wanted an answer. But you're right, I guess it was too much to expect a discussion from a guy who posts unrelated /int/ tier images.
>>134551829
What melodrama?
