Dropped Sakurasou around episode 22. I was expecting the greatest love story ever told but the autism was too cringeworthy by then.
>>
Watched 99 episodes of bleach when I was just starting to get into anime. Dropped it because it's a terrible show.

Dropped Utena after 34 episodes because I only watched it for Utena

It took me to episode 9.

Conan. I just stopped caring.

Zetsuen no Tempest at episode 18/24.
I'm neither sure why I kept watching nor why I dropped it. If I remember correctly I simply didn't like the caracters.

Second is Eureka Seven AO with 14/24. Thank you Bones, as if DTB S2 wasn't enough, you had to ruin this sequel, too.

I've only dropped two shows in my entire life. I dropped Naruto after like 50 eps. After realizing the amount of shit i'd have to watch just to catch up, I gave up. It's was also one of my first animes Another one I dropped was trinity seven. After 7 episodes I got headache so severe I just had to drop it. My head still hurts just from thinking about that shit show.

I'm coming close to dropping pic related.
On episode 7.
>>
I dropped EVA after 26 episodes, EoE and three rebuild movies.
>>
8 episodes to drop dennou coil

Glad I did because I skimmed through the rest of the episodes and it all looked boring.

If anyone liked that anime I'd like them to tell me what they liked about it. I just couldn't get into it.
>>
>>133907574
It was like a slice of life, which I like, mixed in with this sort of mystical mystery, which I also liked. To me it was just a great, relaxing anime to watch.
>>
>>133904285
Well then..
>>
higurashi. I was waiting too log for it to start to make sense, and the animation was awful. I read online how it ended and figured it wasn't worth watching another 24 episodes, since the explanation was too lazy.
>>
Aside from Naruto/Bleach/Fairy Tale shit that I watched years ago, Hayate no Gotoku at 25 episodes.
Also dropped Death Parade and Yahari S2 at episode 10, Erin at 11, Aria the Natural has been on hold for a while at episode 13.

I dropped Utena at episode 15.
>>
Golden Time at episode 16. I progressively stopped caring about the main romance and started hating every character. It just tried to mask how absolutely dull everyone and everything is by throwing in ludicrous plot developments. It could have at least been a plain love story but that pushed it to a level of actively grating

Dragon ball z. Dropped it halfway through the cell sage after starting from the start of dragonball. I'v only watched two shows longer than 100 episodes since

Bleach. 26 episodes.

I couldn't make time to watch it and by the time I get to continuing it, I will have already forgotten what happened.

Naruto around 200 episodes in, of shippuden.
I didn't even cared anymore, the anime went beyond bad.
I mean, a lot of people here parrot how shit is the anime, but I don't think they have actually watched it. It's really bad. The worst part is that I had spent a lot of years watching that shit every week.

This but episode 20.
The autism was way too much

Episode 10 of Wizard Barristers.

I normally have a pretty big threshold for bullshit, but that show just became too much for me.

I'll let you know whenever I drop One Piece, I'm at 167 now.

Legend of legendary heroes on ep 22
>>
>>133906602
I made it to episode 22 before I asked myself what I could honestly expect out of the finale and realized that the writers had literally no idea what they were doing, and I didn't stick around to see what sort of bullshit they would inevitably come up with.
>>
Usually watch shorter shows so I don't have to sit through a lot to complete it.

Been stuck three months now because the last three shows I tried watching I put down in the middle.

Nagato-chan
Charlotte
Code Geass

Haven't watched any anime in three months because of this.
>>
>>133915424
If you could make it through the stupid 4 guardians battle, why would you drop it that close to the end?

I can't even defend it more than that. I still reflect it was "fun" but it was a trainwreck of dumb.
>>
Not animu but mango.
Nisekoi and Yamato Nadeshiko Shichihenge. Just when I've reached chapter 100, both of them, then I've realized that this is getting nowhere.
>>
One Piece manga. I think I was about 300 chapters in and just realized I had never really enjoyed any of it.

>>133913024
This. I watched Bleach for 30-something episodes and then got lazy and stopped caring.

Dropped the Bokurano manga with one volume left. Just got tired of its nonsense, it wasn't very good and I didn't care to see how it ended.

Love Live!
Episode 4

I couldnt stand the shit-tier idols and their cookie-cutter personalities.

Also dropped Gintama after ep 200 or so.

Give it another shot, the second season is a gigantic leap ahead of the first. If you liked season one even a little bit I think you owe it to yourself to at least try.

You do realize that's not a point in its favor, right? Put your hand on boiling for 7 hours and yeah, you'll probably stop feeling the pain, but you'll have done serious damage to yourself.

Gundam 00 S2 ep19
It was mediocre throughout, just lost interest and never went back

I dropped Guilty Crown after episode 22.
>>
>>133916765
The guy had already seen the first season. If he had dropped it early on then sure, it's not for him. He managed to stick it out that long so there must've been something there, right? I just want other people to enjoy the stuff I like, don't think too hard about it.

Love Live during the episode where they go to the beach and start bawling in the train station. Don't remember how many episodes were left but I dropped it due to not having enough willpower to keep watching.

K-on
Got within 4 episodes of finishing the second season and just could not take it anymore.

Bakemonogatari
I got to episode 11 but it took 3 months.
>>
>>133917626
This, except I made all the way to episode 2 of Hanamonogatari. There were some moments throughout the series that I liked, but overall I felt like it was actively trying to make me hate it, and it succeeded.

You missed out man, the finale wasn't even animated, the main villain gets killed in a minute long still frame and half the episode is closeups of walls!

Dropped -monogatari franchise after Mayoi "died". Not because I was mad about it, but because it was way too boring and I lost interest

Zvezda at episode 10 or 11, not realizing it was a one cour series and I could as well have bothered watching the last 1-2 episodes
>>
>>133907278
Don't fucking do it, anon.

It gets a hell of a lot better, it goes from 0-100 with no fucking warning, then back to normal-ish. The last few episodes are shockingly believable and well-written next to the rest of the series, which wasn't bad as a whole.

>>133904046
SAO, took me the entire Aincrad arc. I watched it all in one night, then I woke up the next morning and realized how shit a character Kirito was. Didn't watch Arc 2 but I watched GGO because Sinon has one of the best character arcs of anything I've seen in a show in a long time.

>starts off horribly traumatized
>over the series, comes to terms with it
>realizes that taking a life does not make her a monster

I think that it's just because I can relate. and I know /a/ isn't the place for this but I'm tired and don't give a shit right now
>>
Fractale. I watched it up until the last 7 or 8 minutes of the show.

I hated it. I hated everything about it. I hated that the production crew actually had the gall to believe that anyone would be entertained by it.
>>
Dropped mawaru penguindrum on like the 3rd last episode. I just realized I did not give a flying fuck about anything in the show, and the IMAGIIIINE scene got old.
>>
>>133904046
Dropped Jojo somewhere around chapter 3XX. Kept telling myself "Surely it gets better.", but it never did for me.

Dropped Darker than Black on either episode 20 or 21 after trying it because I highly enjoyed Code Geass, same reason.

Dropped Rave Master on chapter 162, I honestly couldn't be bothered with it any more.

Dropped Naruto on some episode near the end of the 3 tails arc, because Naruto said something like "Home is where your heart is!" or whatever for the 20th time that episode and something inside of me just snapped.

Dropped Tate no Yuusha on chapter 222 because the WN stopped being good about 100 chapters back.

Dropped Bleach late into the Bount arc or whatever it was called. Even when I was new to anime and watched absolutely everything, that shit couldn't meet my standards.

Dropped Yamda & the 7 Witches after over 100 chapters due to a combo of Crunchyroll taking over and the new arc being kinda mediocre.

Dropped AKB49 after something like 135 chapters, because I discovered that the active translators + the ones taking over were derek tier cunts and I really didn't want to give them the page views even if it meant just outright dropping the series.


Man, now that I think about it I've dropped quite a few things a long way into them, I thought of myself as a guy who drops almost nothing.
>>

That's what you get for watching filler, you dumb shit. Although I watched through it all, ten years ago...

Anyway, Bleach is also my longest drop. I drop it every week.

Dropped Nozaki Kun on ep 11 when I realized it was all shit
>>
>>133920819
>That's what you get for watching filler, you dumb shit.
M8 I even made it all the way through the Naruto filler. Every last episode of it.

Bleach however, could even meet my non existent standards.
>>
Kancolle after the second-to-last episode. I felt like if I finished watching the series I lose.

I've stuck it out with the show for numerous reasons. I do like some elements. And there are a handful of characters I like but I mostly watch it for making a drinking game out of the horribleness of it all and I have a good time every god awful week.

Pat?

>>133904046

Gave Bleach 20 episodes before giving up; I gave that show every chance to develop into something interesting, but it just never did. Rukia was the only character worthwhile

This
I dropped it after SIT DOWN
Pacing was pretty off, and yes I'm ignoring the sudden shift
It just felt like a really slow roller coaster with a sudden drop and some left and right tilts and halfway through the drop it decelerated and remained at a constant walking speed again so I just undid the safety buckle and jumped off into the tracks and slowly waited for the carriage to run me over slowly
It just wasn't entertaining or exciting to me
>>
>>133904046

I dropped Rosario + Vampire 11 episodes in.

To be honest I watched it years ago before I really started weebing out. Back then I felt like an absolute pedophile watching it.

Fast forward to now, where I regularly fap to Rin from Kodomo no Jikan.

I might go back and finish it. It is a pretty terrible show though.
>>
>>133904046
Kotoura-san, at episode 9.
Around that episode, I could gauge exactly how the series was going to end, and because I could, and also because it was getting very boring I simply said "And whatshisface rescues Kotoura from the evil mammy and they kissu and they all live happily ever after" and never bothered watching another episode.
