| Had to drop Mushibugyo cause that ear bleeding OP wasn’t skippable. Also dropped Claymore cause the FC had too much clothing on. |
| "Most petty reason y'all dropped an anime?" I'm not sure but the most common reason for me is a very annoying character(s). "If an anime is bad, do you usually finish it or drop it?" I always drop bad shows because I don't want to torture myself. |
 |
| "Most petty reason y'all dropped an anime?" My reasons are always petty, I don't track those. "If an anime is bad, do you usually finish it or drop it?" If it's entertainingly bad I will finish it. |
| I've only dropped one anime since creating my MAL account and I don't think I've ever dropped an anime for a petty reason. Usually it's just that I didn't want to watch any more or I just didn't get back to it for whatever reason. For one reason or another (couldn't tell you why with confidence) I just can't seem to leave an anime unfinished. Just today I watched Raise wa Tanin ga Ii and I hated it very much. I could hardly wait for the series to be over. Nevertheless I powered through the whole season. Certainly not the first time for this to happen, of course. |
| Depends where my BPD swings,that's also why my ratings are all over the place Main reason for dropping anime is when the character/s are more annoying than usual or extremely naive |

| 385 dropped anime here. My mottos are: trying one episode and dropping is better than not trying at all; dropping and then trying again after some time is better than forcing myself to complete. The most petty reason I dropped an anime is the 3D character designs that look like inflated balloons in BanG Dream It's MyGo, a particular case since I'm usually a fan of 3D anime. |

| im experienced and elite enough to know if i will like the show b4 even watching it some tips & context - look at the cast, synopsis & front cover art |
| dropped "Familiar of Zero" because i hated the FMC...i hate tsunderes...and i especially hate violent tsunderes...well that bitch is like 10 steps further on the tsun scale and i just couldnt watch it. another one was "Kemono Michi: Rise Up" its about a pro wrestler getting isekai'd and he's an "animal lover". watched up until dude was on all 4's with his nose up a dogs ass...that was enough for me lol |
| Wasn't technically finished. Which is half the anime in my dropped list. |
| It's probably Chihayafuru and me not being able to get over how shallow and uninteresting of a game Hyakunin Isshu karuta is. |
| "The suburbs dream of violence. Asleep in their drowsy villas, sheltered by benevolent shopping malls, they wait patiently for the nightmares that will wake them into a more passionate world." - JG Ballard, Kingdom Come (2006) |
| I dropped Kamierabi season 2 not because of the cgi but because I hated the voice of the MC. I heard two sentences and left lol Also Buddy Complex first episode, the dude in a mech chasing and failing to catch the guy on foot, it annoyed me so much I dropped. |
| High pitched voice acting hurt my ears. There wasn't anything wrong with the anime except the female mc voice acting. How can anyone accept that. It was quite high rated as well. Can't remember the name anymore. |
| "You only realize the real value of something you discarded when you get the chance to pick it up again." - Rudeus Greyrat |
| I don't drop anime. The only thing that ever drops in my life is me when I was dropped on my head as a child. |
| I watched Witch Craft Works to see Obama, seeking right to his appearance, and once Obama left the scene, I dropped it. Not sure how many minutes (Or seconds) I watched total, but it was less time than the length of the OP or ED. I only watched it for Obama, so "No Obama = No reason to continue". |

| The title starts with "Fate" has been a proven 'one and out' for me for years now. |
| I dropped Sakamichi no Apollon, MariMite and Blassreiter because of the Christian themes. I dropped Occultic;Nine because of oversized boobs. I usually don't drop anime unless it's really boring. |

| There are a handful of Romance anime that I dropped because the boy/girl got with the romantic lead that I dissaproved of. Felt like an old gossiping Chinese mother getting upset at my child for having a boyfriend/girlrfriend I dissaproved of. |
 |
| I try not to drop anything, but Inuyasha is on indefinite hold for me because I find Kagome extremely annoying. I'll get back to it one day, though. |

| I dropped Buddy Daddies because the child’s voice was annoying lol |
| Even if the anime is absolute trash, I'd rather complete it than drop it. (You'll see how trash half of my completed animes are) I never dropped an anime, but I should start using the "On Hold" feature on the anime list because there's many animes I started watching but I haven't continued them in a while. |
 |
| Ten years ago I would drop a lot of anime simply because I got bored, but nowadays it's quite rare that I stop watching an anime no matter how boring it seems to me. |
 |
| ....because I liked the main character too much and I didn't want the series to end lmao I intend to finish it in the near future since it's getting a continuation |

| @menacce I get that, I never finished the GTO manga(one of my Fav) because... well, you know that emptiness you feel after finishing an amazing series? I just wasn’t ready for that. |

@AMBITZZ I'll take it as a compliment from a guy with AoT, JJK, Demon Slayer and Solo Leveling in his favorites.
| @Nirinbo all that optimism doesn't change my statement in the slightest. Also what if I have peak in my favs? At least some random ass character from Fire Punch of all things isn't in my favorites. |

| wimpy MCs or MCs that let his harem fight his own battles for him in action anime. |
| If an anime is just bad I drop it. Pettiest reason I dropped an anime was that a dude I lowkey hate started watching it too |
| I dropped Kakegurui during Episode 2 because they kept talking about removing someone's fingernails and it made me sick to my stomach. |
| I have continued watching anime for petty reasons, actually. Because I wanted criticize/trash it without having to hear the "you didn't even finish it" retort. I don't really think my reasons for dropping something are petty... It's either I just don't like it or I think it's a waste of time. |

SynthwaveCrusade said: Felt like an old gossiping Chinese mother getting upset at my child for having a boyfriend/girlrfriend I dissaproved of. That's a very funny way of putting it. As I get older I'm starting to understand what that feels like... It's going from "you deserve better, bro" to "you deserve better, son." |
| I don't plan to watch the next season of Chihahafuru despite loving the first 2 seasons because I don't like the ending pair. |
| I dropped kusuriya no hitorigoto after 3 episodes because the main girl was a moe blob, you may ask why did I ever start it if I already saw her design, the answer is simple, I thought she was actually cool behind that disgusting moe blob facade, turns out I was wrong. |

| I feel like all my reasons are perfectly justified. |
| Cucumber ice cream is the best! |
| i stopped watching rent a girlfriend on the 2nd ep because the guy pissed me off so much. i couldnt do it. hes so delusional he thinks that even with a cute girl right in front of him that a stupid loser guy like him has other options. i just cannot bring myself to ever re visit it. |

| @oshiisoup I only managed to finish season 1 because for some reason I felt like being in pain for 4 hours straight, and that never happened again. |

| I deleted an entire season of something because the audio was set to english default. |

| I don't think I have dropped anime but I have certainly just given up with some due to a lack of quality or just the overuse of the cliches or lolicons. I for some reason just can't get into lolicons. I normally do try to watch an episode to see if it can get me hooked and if it doesn't then I do drop sadly. :( |

| Mushibugyo is one of my most cherish rare gems.. I drop an anime when it gets too real and starts mirroring real-world problem, it's a one-way ticket to Drop-ville for me. When I'm into anime, I'm looking to escape reality , not a front-row seat to reality's emotional and social issues and tragedies. Honestly, who wants their downtime escapades turning into breaking news, realistic horror or therapy sessions? |
| Because they had too many female characters that's a big no no even one is too many. |
| I've looked to make a real anime waifu, Too spin my world around like a typhoon, Why do people keep calling me a raccoon, Maybe because I keep stealing anime girls hearts like gru steals the moon. |
| reasons I dropped an anime is always the same I did not enjoy my self. Why keep watching if im not having a good time. |
