| I noticed that we have this topic for anime but not for manga, so here it is! I've been slowly acknowledging that I haven't enjoyed reading Hot Gimmick since volume two or so, and after eight volumes I've officially dropped it. |
| Oh! My favorite manga! What don't you like about it? (just curious...I know what most people find at fault with it, just wondering if your problems with it were the same) I've never thought about it, but I've never dropped a manga series before. |
 |
| i've actually never dropped a manga. usually when i start them i finish them in one sitting (if they're not too long) otherwise i put them on hold because i dont like waiting for releases. then after a while i catch up and put it on hold again lol. |

| Yep, that's the one. Thanks for your answer. |
|
| Gothic Sports. Pretty horrible imo. I guess I dropped it because I just didn't like the way it was drawn and the story were horrible boring. Duh, might just buy the last vol just to see how it ends. |
 |
| I dropped Claymore . It sounds surpridsing as it seems that most of the people like it but after the first volume I stopped and after a few months I realized that probably I wouldn't read it again . I hated the art . Every time I read another page I disapproved and I wasn't enjoying it all even though the story wasn't really bad . I haven't watched the anime yet so I hope it'll be good or at least better than manga ... |
   |
| i dropped negima! i used to like the anime when i watched it a long time ago. i got up to volume 8 but i was bored of the same old story line and not enough advances in the story so i dropped it and changed to chobits. which is really good ^_^ |
  |
| hi there, I dropped ranma 1/2 becouse its too long and too bored... |
| lol that reminds me, I own a volume of Ranma 1/2 and Inuyasha. I need to add that to my list... Well, I also sorta dropped Ranma 1/2 due to it's length (I didn't realize how long it was, and the first volume didn't interest me so much as to buy all that...) I also dropped Lights out and Skullman. Both series didn't hold my interest and I didn't like the art. |
| Air Gear, because glossy art with no story whatsoever can only hold my attention for so long. |
| I dropped a few but not for good. Some of them will be read later when I'm done with the ones I'm currently reading and the ones on hold. I dropped Death Note becuz I already know the ending and hate it, and I dropped Jojos Bizarre Adventure becuz the drawing is terible. I also dropped One Piece, Bleach and Naruto becuz they drag on and on. I might continue Naruto and Bleach later. Not sure about One Piece cuz I don't like plot as much and the art is terrible. |
 |
| Dropped Saiyuki. Blind purchase that couldn't catch my attention in over 200 pages. kirAth-shiAue said: and I dropped Jojos Bizarre Adventure becuz the drawing is terible. Even as a fan, I'll admit the art in the first couple volumes of the "Stardust Crusaders" arc is weak. |
  |
| Saiyuki, Inu Yasha, Ranma 1/2 and Naruto are a few that I can remember off the top of my head. Naruto was ok at first, but I just got bored before the 5th volume. Inu Yasha/Ranma 1/2 I started to read in order, got bored, read random volumes and just stopped. I tend to drop stuff if runs on too long or obvious patterns start to develop. I wanted to drop Death Note but since I made it half way I had to finish it. |

| Can I count a series as dropped if I only saw three pages? Cause I tried to read the Ouran Host Club manga, but I thought the characters looked really creepy in the manga. I'll watch the anime some day, probably, but I can't read the manga. |
| D&D Club Because my sig making skills are non-existant. |
| The only Manga i dropped, and probably will ever drop was NGE...I got it as a present up to Vol. 9, but couldnt even finish the first volume it just annoyed me...maybe thats the reason why i got it as a present xP (Yeah, i know that many ppl will hate me for hating NGE :P) |

Cause I tried to read the Ouran Host Club manga, but I thought the characters looked really creepy in the manga. I'll watch the anime some day, probably, but I can't read the manga. The only manga I ever really dropped was Parfait Tic ... I read up until Volume 11, was having trouble with all the anguish going on, read a few spoilers and said "I can't handle this". Especially since I'd been on the other side of the world from my boy for three months at that point, and didn't need more emotional turmoil that would continue for the next 11 volumes... Last volume just came out a while ago - I think I'll see how it ended, and decide whether to pick it up again or not. |
| Manhole becasue it's not here in the states and I tried hard trying to find it at borders, but no dice that and any other mangas from Tetsuya Tsutsui.*sighs*=_= |
| I dropped Fruits Basket after I found out it was +30 volumes. Not to mention, I didn't like the manga-ka's new art style. |
 |
| DearS. I gave up on it after reading the 4rth volume. |
 |

| Just dropped Steady Beat because the art is terrible and the author tries to hard to be funny. danobou said: And Jojo's bizarre adventure because I hated the art and everything. I just dropped that awhile ago for the same reason. |
|
| Araki's choice of art seems to be major sticking point. |

| Naruto No need for explanation. |
| Haven't dropped a single manga lately. However, I did drop shojobeat magazine. I just couldn't take anymore. The only series from their line that are any good (imo) are vampire knight, anything by kaori Yuki, and arina tanemura |
| Because one can only stand so much standard-issue Shounen drivel? |
|
| Death Note after Vol. 7. Seen the anime and know that it all just goes down the shitter after that. I also have decided to drop Gintama after vol 3. This is a manga that I WANTEd to like more than I actually did I think. I don't find myself laughing as I should. And there isn't anything remotely interesting enough for it to not be a humor manga so I find myself saying blah how dull after each volume. All I can remember from reading them is the dog thing that bites Gin's head. Literally. |
  |
| I dropped two Manga's. Naruto. Long much? It was driving me insane how slow paced it was going. IMO And Fruits Basket, corny. I thought the anime was corny, but damn... the manga proved to me that it could just get even GAY-R |
 |
NaraLove said: And Fruits Basket, corny. I thought the anime was corny, but damn... the manga proved to me that it could just get even GAY-R  "GAY-R"??? :'( Well, the beginning was kind of slow - especially if you'd just finished watching the anime. But the ending was fantastic ^^ My top 10 for life!... But that's me :) |
| I dropped Pokemon: The Electric Tale of Pikachu cause I lost interest in it. |
Hamminaptu said: Death Note after Vol. 7. Seen the anime and know that it all just goes down the shitter after that. Glad I'm not the only one that feels that way. I dropped Death Note manga awhile ago but I own them(about 8 volumes) so I might complete it even though I know what happens. Not even gonna bother with the anime! |
|
| Demon Flowers. Dropped it after volume 1. I just could not stand the art style first of all, and story was just so boring. |
  |
| ranma 1/2. i stuck it on hold forever since i read the first 17 volumes a long time ago... butttt now i don't want to read it. |
| i dropped Fairy Tail, people compare it with One Piece so i kept reading it for two volumes hoping it would get better. but its just painfully generic and predictable. |
  |
| Fruits basket. It's original but i found it boring >.< Beside Furuba i didin't drop any other, normaly even if I don't like i read it to the end or i put on-hold and a thousand years later i finish reading. I don't like to stop at the middle of thing. |
  |
| Love monster. I kinda just click at it and didn't read its summary at all, and what kind of manga it is. And then i just found out that its not the type for my age, its a bit all about $xx and it has lots of nude scenes and stuff. And i don't find it very entertaining at all, in short its not my type and also its kinda boring. |
     |
| psychic academy, wasnt my cup of tea and i didnt want to spend more money on it. |
-= Quote of the week=- "To every action there is always opposed an equal reaction." -Isaac Newton |
| I've officially given up on Suzuka. Way too ecchi for my tastes, and the story and characters don't make up for it at all. |
| Escaflowne. It was just bad. I mean, insanely bad. I like Katsu Aki's artwork normally, but it was just bad in that one. The characters were just plain sick. |
 |
| I also recently dropped Negima! when I realized that I was dreading having to read the next volume. Never a good sign! ^_^; |
| I'm thinking about dropping Dramacon but I only got 1 volume left. -_- |
|
| I swear I was going to finish Scryed. I only have a volume left, after all. But after volume four, I realized that I would rather stab my eye out than read any more. |
| Bleach. After volume seven, I realized I simply couldn't handle any more. SO AMAZINGLY BORING. Dx |
