Animation style was to old/character designs were atrocious.

I can watch older anime. Visuals are over HALF of what makes up a series rating for me.

When I say "character designs" I mean the big eyes, big head, all that stuff creeps me out. I understand that anime characters are unrealistic to begin with, but there's a big difference in this;





and this;

The theme song sucked. Clearly that is the best reason as well. If the theme song isn't good, the show is probably shit too.

I think the pettiest reason why I dropped a series was because of an overused line: IIE SENPAI, THIS IS OUR FIGHTO.


I was nothing until the moment I met you.

Dropped shigatsu since ep 1 because the heroine is so annoying. It was weird because i can endure taiga abusive nature for mc but not with shigatsu.

Dropped sao because someone said that the first 3 episodes were the best ones. And i'm sooo bored for watching them.

Dropped code geass because lulu's smugness was over the top.

Wait. I dropped... Rurouni Kenshin because there was an annoying child character and it was right after I had watched Outlaw Star and Cowboy Bebop and I really didn't feel like watching another one with this trope.

That's a highlight trope of the authors. Honestly if I hadn't watched it when I was young I'd have probably been out by episode two.

Dropped The King's Avatar in a matter of minutes due to it being in Chinese. The animation was great and I've heard the story is equally amazing but I'm just not used to the Chinese language I presume. Maybe one day I won't be so petty.

I see a pattern here... but maybe it's just me.

Also "gay atmosphere" is almost as silly as when @keragamming said "gay poses" about JoJo. Things like atmosphere and poses don't have sexuality.

Bokura Ga Ita had the worst art. I guess they just forgot to draw the characters' other eyes. It looks horrendous. Other than that, I had issues with the plot, but the art is probably the primary reason. Might pick it up again for the lolz.

* Don't like art/characters design... (This would be my pettiest reason ever, and I realize I might be missing very good shows because of this, but I just can't help it! T_T )

* super-badass character suddenly becomes happy/ falls in love and it makes him/her lose all trace of charisma.... (it actually happend more than once and it made the show unbearable)

* Too many random boobs everywhere... (so many good shows that I just can't bear due to the ridiculous amount of fanservice)

I took a break from anime because of school reasons, when I came back to watch an anime I already forgot what was supposed to be happening and I couldn't be bothered to rewatch previous episodes.

Lol I used to hate Subaru, until I realized that he's supposed to represent the sin of pride. Eventually his character just appealed to me as a writer.

Yuri from Yuri on Ice legitimately looked better after taking off his glasses (the animation face model was altered) and didn't look like the same person just without glasses. As a person who wears glasses, I was offended.

Seven mortal sins and testament of sister new devil burst because they didn't have enough fanservice

Actually, now that I think about it, if all the shows I've dropped had a bunch of fanservice I probably would've finished at least a third of them.
If your lie in april had Kousie imagine the crowd naked to boost his confidence, and you saw Kaori in the changing room whenever she was dressing up for a show, I wouldn't have dropped it.
