Solución simple para soltar toda la tabla a la vez desde la terminal.
Esto implicó algunos pasos dentro de su shell mysql (aunque no es una solución de un solo paso), esto me funcionó y me salvó el día.
Funcionó para la versión del servidor: 5.6.38 MySQL Community Server (GPL)
Pasos que seguí:
1. generate drop query using concat and group_concat.
2. use database
3. turn off / disable foreign key constraint check (SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 0;),
4. copy the query generated from step 1
5. re enable foreign key constraint check (SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 1;)
6. run show table
MySQL shell
$ mysql -u root -p
Enter password: ****** (your mysql root password)
mysql> SYSTEM CLEAR;
mysql> SELECT CONCAT('DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `', GROUP_CONCAT(table_name SEPARATOR '`, `'), '`;') AS dropquery FROM information_schema.tables WHERE table_schema = 'emall_duplicate';
