Pony Canyon finished out the singles release for Glasslip back in 2015 but they didn’t follow it up with a box set last year like we expected. What they’ve done instead is to go for the compact Blu-ray route with the show re-authored down to two discs at quite the discounted price. While the six singles were priced at 6,800 yen each the compact collection is priced at 12,000 yen. It’s scheduled for a December 20th, 2017 release with details on what’s involved in the release coming later.

Plot Concept: Toko Fukami thought she had settled on what she wanted in life: to hang out with her four best friends in their small seaside town, and to eventually become a professional glassblower working in her family’s glassworks. But now two things have happened that may change her destiny forever. First, she’s seeing things. When she looks into reflections in glass, sometimes she catches glimpses of things that haven’t happened yet. And then a new boy, Kakeru, transfers into town, claiming that a voice from the future led him to her. Suddenly Toko is re-evaluating everything she thought she knew, from the proper care of her school’s chickens to how she really feels about each of her friends.
