In Death Note's case, i just stopped reading it when i realized that that girl would stay until the very end of the series.

:/ You're missing out on a lot, man...

I mean, she takes a back seat most of the time, anyway. At least for good chunks of it. And there are a LOT of other enjoyable characters to make up for her being there... Like, I really don't like Misa, but Death Note is still great...
