Most Disappointing Anime

These are the anime that got dropped in droves. The anime that made viewers go "You know what, I'm not watching another episode of this garbage". The reasons for each vary, from being poorly adapted from mobile games, nauseating CGI, badly remaking childhood classics, or simply having the misfortune of being animated by Studio Deen. For whatever reason, at least 1 out of every 4 viewers dropped these shows. (To qualify for the list, the show had to have 500 users mark it watched, watching, or dropped.)
1 Ex-Arm

Ex-Arm

Drop Rate: 58%  Reason: After the success of other Crunchyroll funded anime, this anime was horribly done. With a director that had never done anime, a studio that had never done anime, and some of the twitchiest CGI in the business, this was a train wreck

2 The Reflection

The Reflection

Drop Date: 53%. Reason: This anime had the unfortunate circumstance of having Stan Lee's name attached to it, and some really bizarre animation choices. 

3 Gibiate

Gibiate

Drop Rate: 47% Reason: This had a pretty good line up of designers and animators, and then somewhere along the way the production just became a mess. They added samurai to a monster survival horror and it unfortunately did not produce Michonne. 

4 The Thousand Musketeers

The Thousand Musketeers

Drop Rate: 46% Reason: poorly adapted from a mobile game, too many characters, not enough plot to sustain them

5 Monster Hunter Stories: RIDE ON

Monster Hunter Stories: RIDE ON

Drop Rate: 46% Reason: While the game Monster Hunter is certainly enjoyed by various ages, the show was definitely geared towards preteens. Too much went into the aspirations of the children protagonists, and not enough went into flushing out intricate storylines. 

6 Maple Story

7 Francesca

8 Hakyuu Hoshin Engi

Hakyuu Hoshin Engi

40% Drop Rate. Reason: Poor remake of an older anime, low animation quality, confusing plotlines. 

9 ClassicaLoid

ClassicaLoid

37% Drop Rate. Reason: Probably containing the name -Loid without Hatsune Miku, and bizarre plot overall. 

10 Urahara

44% Drop Rate. Reason: Bizarre premise, over saturation of colors and objects over a lackluster background
