I did not finish Eureka Seven simply because of how whiny Renton was. That's a petty reason. Or maybe when I dropped Mouryou no Hako because I was too scared.

I don't know, I'd say it actually seems like a very good reason to check it out. If anyone has any idea what series this is, then I wouldn't might watching. Unless it's a hentai... then never mind.

Himegoto (that's the only series I can think of where the main character is a trap)

Reasons for 'Dropping' an anime are:
They are under 15 minutes so I can find them easily on my list.
They are hentai so I can, you know ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Other than that there is no reason to drop any Anime, after all you never know if the Anime you are dropping could be actually be good or not.
The dearer you hold a memory the more painful it becomes.

"Not interesting enough" could be a petty reason.

depend on what's your definition of "Interesting"
for example, i got hook into a show, but after a while, it lose the touch, the story go nowhere
or i see what they're trying to do, but they're failing horribly to get me going

for not having enough females to look at.

This. It's probably the only reason I drop shows that I would consider "petty".
I mean, boredom, or disliking main characters, or disliking the show's atmosphere - they are all valid reason in my opinion.

Not tha anime's fault but I've had to drop some things cause the subtitles or the audio was off sync with the video and I didn't feel like finding another website. Of course I didn't add them to my dropped list, but still.

Now I'm feeling hardcore for editing subtitle timing on a few occasions where the timing was off and I could not find a better version.

This, if I can't be bothered to watch it I'll put it in my On-Hold list but that's basically dropped since I never go through the list again.

This was suprisingly difficult. Most of the shows I dropped I did so because it was something about the show as a whole. I think I'm gonna say Genshiken Nidaime, because I didn't think the characters were as strong as the originals

Tokyo Ravens isn't heavy on romance even if you read beyond the anime ending, so it's okay.
But Strike the Blood does go for a harem ending, so your worries are unfounded.

I dropped bungou stray dogs because everyone loved the dude who wears the fedora.

Dropped cheer danshi and prince of stride because the animation was shit.

Dropped fairy tail because the fights were repetitive (though I guess that can be seen as a genuine reason)

And I dropped noragami s2 and sword art online because of the romance (I also just hated asuna).

True but plenty of anime fans convinced themselves that Kirito is the worst anime character just because other people said so.

A friend was relaying to me why they couldn't make it through certain shows and quote on quote "dropped" them.

Such as Attack on Titan where the anime looks like dirt the entire way through because the color pallet is so exclusively brown AND my favorite "Am I suppose to take this cue ball motherfucker seriously" after episode 2 of One Punch Man. His taste is selective and tried out mainstream shit for the first time in his life.

TL;DR Reason you dropped a show for no deep reason other than [blank].


Because:

1. My fav character dead
2. My OTP sunk
3. My NOTP become canon

I rarely dropped show but when I do, it's usually because of the combination of all three mentioned above.

Example:

Inuyasha

I love Ranma Half, and I dropped it because the TV channel that aired it was replaced by another channel for kids.

I dropped Heavy Object Cause I find large metal balls disturbing.

I am about to drop Claymore cause I get a boner everytime I see clair idk why.

I dropped god eater because I disliked the font used in its title, and cause it was boring.

I dropped Beyond the Boundaries cause I was sick while watching it and now even if I try to watch it, I feel like puking cause I remember the sickness.

I dropped a lot of manga just because I forget in a few days upto which chapter I read and then I have to begin again.

I'm not droping anime or manga. I tend to go beyond and at least see the outcome, even if it sucks.

But regarding the question, there was an anime that I had to leave. It's absurdly HORROR. Fairy Tail. It's a lousy anime in every way. And I say this with conviction, I practically watched the whole anime, but once I thought: Enough! It does not hurt.

I'm dropping a show when:

- It's boring
- It's cliche
- It's bad
- It's weird
- I'm watching another wayy better anime at the same time so forget about it/drop it
- It's annoying
- 1 Character ruins the show
- It's too similar to a show that I've already watched.

I know that you can skip it and that's exactly why it's petty.
Because of the intro I started to hate all the characters and dropped near episode 3 or something.

Probably ugly character designs for me. I could argue that the designs clash too heavily with the themes and atmosphere of the show, but yeah I guess its still pretty petty.
