I am happy that breakdancing is officially out! One of the best news from IOC in a while.

I'd go for karate being significantly worse, since it felt so...negative. Like, a DQ for kicking too hard, all those kicks and punches that were - by design - more like 'almost hits' than actual hits, it felt more like a sort of dancing than actual fighting. Not to disrespect the athletes, I'm sure it's super tough to do, but for me as a viewer it really didn't feel like a sport where the participants were going all-out and for breaking I definitely did have that feeling (like in the men's final, where both athletes at the end were absolutely done in terms of energy left).

 

I'm aware holding back is kind of part of karate as a sport, but that's also why I just didn't like it in the slightest
