People are saying the anime is unfaithful to the OG VN, but i want to watch the Anime instead of the VN because I don't have time to go through the entire VN. Is the anime still worth it for me?

Yeah well the anime doesn't go through the entire story either. It only covers the first half. I can't recommend it anyway because it's too fast paced.

Alternatively you could read the manga, though it's also ridiculously long.

its been years but i enjoyed the anime. i remember it being confusing, which could possibly be due to a poor adaptation but i think its worth a watch

Read manga then, it’s fast forwarded version of VN, but pacing is good enough to not butcher the source material like anime did.

Umineko anime is trash.

Yeah, don't. Either read the VN or read the Manga. Anime will just spoil the experience for you in case you read the VN in future

i read the manga alongside watching the anime as a companion, the only good thing that came out from this anime is the op tbh

BTW the thing is that I am not a manga person so I'm screwed either way.

If you like incomplete, subpar adaptations that capture nothing of the source material then yes you should watch it
