| I have seen some people on this site giving a high score (7 to 9) to anime that they themself did drop. If you are one of them can you please explain why? |

| You didn't specify what you mean by "high score", so I'd say 6 or 7 is generally considered a high score for a dropped anime. - I can drop something if I recognize something as "well made", but it was not for me, or I got bothered by a minor thing, but that very thing is a dealbreaker for me. - I get interested in an anime that is very similar, but better, and then lose interest in the other lesser one. - Another reason is if I kept it on-hold for a while and the story is quite hard to follow if you haven't watched it for a while, and then it gets too hard to get back into. |

| Once, and only once. Osomatsu-san. It's a really good anime. I just don't know if I can make myself watch it at any reasonable pace. So I dropped it, but I still rated it a 9/10. |

| I never rate dropped anime. I don't see the point of doing so. |

| Never ever. Firstly I never rate dropped anime. If I did then it means it was the worst thing I have ever seen. |

| Yes, I gave Death March kara Hajimaru Isekai Kyousoukyoku a 10/10, because it offered the best kind of entertainment steeming from something close to unwatchable, since Shingeki no Kyojin SS1. [ Death March is an isekai series similar to One Punch Man. It focuses around an overpowered mr. nice guy Jesus named Satou who saves women from slavery among other things with the powers of an I.T. guru, and makes them his property. The events include mr. nice guy raping and pillaging like a viking, except he does the polar opposite because he is nice. Other characters in this series are women. Slave girls 1-7 and a knight. Most of them are very much into mr. nice guy but he himself is a nice guy who doesn't use women. We shan't never know what type of a glopping sound this guy makes. What about the most common quality trait in anime: character development? Satou is already perfect so naturally, he isn't developed, but our main girls and side chicks all like Satou more at the end than in the beginning = character development. The best part is how much this makes sense, after all, there is no reason to not like the guy. The art and sounds follow the average production values which have been the standard for anime since 2013. Nothing to complain there. Just name your favorite hair color and there is a girl who has it. Smart choices. I highly recommend this show because it never tried to be anything, and thus didn't fail at it. |

| Yes, I gave Shirobako 8/10 and then dropped it in the middle of the 24. (that is the last) episode. Don't ask why. |

| I gave detective conan a 7. I don't have the energy and time to get through all the episodes |
| I never dropped an anime untill now. So no |
| But it's so good, I've never known anybody like you But it's so good, I've never dreamed of nobody like you And I've heard of a love that comes once in a lifetime And I'm pretty sure that you are that love of mine |
| Imagine dropping an anime. You MUST watch it till the end! |
| No, I'm not stupid like that. There are many idiots who do that though. I've even seen people who write a review for an anime they rated 8/10 and mark it as "Mixed Feelings" lol. Those people are so insecure, they can't fathom the idea of rating a show lower than 6. For them, 6/10 is unwatchable garbage, and anything below that score is uhhh... (logic.exe has crashed, please reboot the system or install a new brain). Why are they afraid of rating shows lowly? Because it would be like admitting to themselves that the hobby they got hooked on isn't as rose-colored as they believed it to be. |
| I do not think anyone should rate the anime they dropped, and I never do. |
| Well 1.) rating a dropped anime automaticaly invalidates your weighted score because it should only count for completed entries. 2.) why would anyone drop an anime that they even like a little? 3.) I'm no quitter so I don't drop anime. |

| Death Note. It might go to pieces eventually, but that doesn't change how brilliant it was at the start and for quite a long time. |
| I dropped oshi no ko. Δ± just dont liked the first episode and people say its gets worse after first episode. |

OmegaOtaku said: Because that is exactly the reason. Why would I waste time with an anime I only get little enjoyment out of, instead of watching an anime I actually enjoy much more?why would anyone drop an anime that they even like a little? |

| My top score for a dropped series is 6, it's for stuff where I felt "This could have perfectly ended here and I am no longer interested on what happened next.", while 5 is: I... really don't care, it's not for me. |

| Yeah, I originally dropped san-gatsu. Couldn't stand how much of a whinny bitch Rei was, or more precisely, how the show wants me to think his life is so hard that I must sympathize with him so much. But eventually I picked it back up, due to how highly praised it is. |
 |
| I have some anime in dropped that I want to continue watching so they should probably be in on-hold I just don't know when I will get around to watching them again. |

| Yes I have. Surprisingly, it's quite common for me to drop a series that I actually enjoy, even if it's just to a small extent, rather than one that I find outright bad. It's not always about the inherent quality of the anime or manga, or even how much I enjoy it while experiencing it. Sometimes, the decision to drop it is more about the purpose or reason behind engaging with it. If I feel there's no longer a compelling reason to continue with it, regardless of my enjoyment or its overall quality, then I'll choose to drop it. |
 |
| I've stopped scoring dropped anime. As crap as they were, it feels like I'm doing them a great injustice by giving them a low score when I haven't fully engaged with them. |

| My highest is Ousama Ranking which I gave an 8/10. It's a good series, but I was watching it I think seasonally and I lost interest in the episode gaps. That aside there was also Heike Monogatari which I almost dropped. I gave it a 10/10 after one episode because it was an absolute masterpiece and because despite the genre I found myself enjoying the first episode, but when I went back and tried to watch the full series I ended up bored. I still finished it though.   |
| its either I have too much food on my plate and had to toss some out or I don't like the direction is starting to head |
| Yes, Dragonball and Dragonball Z. They are enjoyable and I acknowledge their importance, but simply too long to complete for me. I'm not interested in watching any long-running show other than One Piece. |
This dance is the pinnacle of human achievement. |
| I gave Detective Conan a 9, added it to favs, and dropped it after 600+ eps because the censorship and artstyle change just became too much for me in the anime so I switched to manga. Like once they dropped the really noticeable black blood stuff I was just mentally kinda out. And I was already annoyed by the fact that they started closing every murder victim's eyes for a while at that point. The only high scores I gave otherwise were 7s because it is well-made or the story/character writing is great or I acknowledge and feel nothing against the show's legacy so I give it a nice score and decide I don't care enough to finish this. I mean, me not liking or getting bored of a show doesn't mean it's bad. Although sometimes I still drop with very low scores because I despised the show. |
No watch list sig cuz "You watch anime in 3 days or 3 months! Such is the proper way!" |
