(#17) Akemi Hinazuki From 'Erased'
Akemi Hinazuki is Kayo's abusive mother. She made her own daughter suffer and physically abused her to vent out her own frustrations. Poor Kayo was so neglected that she burst into tears when Satoru's mom cooked her breakfast. Akemi would usually just leave a small amount of money for Kayo to buy her own food. So, Kayo finally felt a real mother's love for the first time. It's a relief that Akemi's parental rights were taken away and Kayo went to live with her grandmother.

(#7) Saki Arima From 'Your Lie In April'
Saki Arima of Your Lie in April is a well-known professional pianist, and the mother of the show's protagonist, Kousei Arima. When Ms. Arima develops an unspecified terminal illness that makes it impossible for her to continue her musical career, she begins to live vicariously through Kousei. This means long, grueling practice sessions, and regular beatings whenever he makes a mistake.
After his mother dies, Kousei stops being able to hear music, and it takes him nearly the entire series for his talent to be a source of pleasure instead of trauma.

(#11) Shouichi Makise From 'Steins;Gate'
Steins;Gate's Shouichi Makise, also known as Dr. Nakabachi, is the father of a scientific genius named Kurisu Makise. Kurisu writes a groundbreaking paper on time travel, but instead of being proud of his daughter's accomplishments, Shouichi tries to murder her so he can steal her paper and pass it off as his own.
It's definitely hard to get worse than that, parenting wise.

(#12) Dario Brando From 'JoJo's Bizarre Adventure'
Dario Brando is one of the first characters to appear in the sprawling tale that is Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, and he's also one of the worst. Dario is the father of Dio, the villain of the series, and while Dio's motivations can't be entirely distilled to a simple "his dad sucks," that's about 90% of it. Dario not only verbally and physically abused Dio, he also forced his wife to work so hard that she died. For Dario, her death was a lucky break, because it meant he could force his son to sell her clothing for beer money.
Dio found his father's behavior to be totally unforgivable, and he's glad when his father dies. But hey, at least he cares enough about his son to send him to the Joestar family, where he proceeds to terrorize their child and kill their dog? Hey, no one said Dio was a good kid, just his father was terrible.

(#16) Medusa Gorgon From 'Soul Eater'
While Medusa Gorgon makes for an amazing anime villain, she's a terrible mother. She sees Crona as nothing more than a research experiment. Her cruel and detached attitude towards Crona resulted in them becoming highly unstable. Medusa would even force them to brutally kill animals in different ways. Even to the very end, Medusa had no problem killing her own child.

(#5) Ragyo Kiryuin From 'Kill La Kill'
Ragyo Kiryuin is the antagonist of Kill la Kill. She's also an objectively terrible mother. Ragyo is a seemingly immortal monster, whose body is a combination of human flesh and Life Fibers, which are basically clothing from space. Her goal is to destroy all of humanity and let Life Fibers take over the earth, a goal her older daughter Satsuki pretends to support until she manages to gather adequate forces to take her down. While she's biding her time, she has to endure her mother violating her.
You would think that supervillainy would be enough for Ragyo, but no, she's also aggressively cavalier about the lives of her children. When she mistakenly believes her second daughter, Ryuko, died as an infant as a result of Life Fiber experimentation, she disposes of the body, feeling no grief for anything other than the failed experiment.
Later, she's perfectly content to try and murder both Satsuki and Ryuko for trying to stop her from destroying humanity. Oh, and she orders her third daughter, Nui, to sacrifice her life. Because, evidently, that's just what you do when you're a parent.
