For me, it was the first season of one punch man. There just wasn't anything that really grabbed me. I wanted to like it because I love the author's other work, mob psycho 100, but I just didn't. Glad I read the manga, because right after the part season 1 adapts, I finally got hooked. I guess another thing that this could apply to is genshin. I have a friend who likes genshin, so I eventually tried it in order to do co-op, but I just didn't enjoy the gameplay.

it has to be wings of fire. I was just so desperate to find something similar to the masterpiece that was how to train your dragon's book series.
I looked too far and scarred myself by finding something I hated so much it makes me sick. Just by seeing certain words I remember it and get pissed.

Good for you that you don't like genshin. Its nothing but a glorified slot machine with the most basic gameplay to appeal to the lowest common denominator, since more players means more whales.

The story was pretty fun. The ways to level up in order to continue the story were not.

For me it's pokemon. It have some good parts I like community and fan made staff(sometimes it's better than original)

But bruh, it's mostly children games. I wish too see pokemons but more mature (I know pawworld exist)
A gaming friend of mine always pushed me to like Idolmaster, and I ended up hating it even more.

Can't give a specific answer for the question asked but do know three things that I did not like the first time I encountered them but loved them on a second viewing:

Orphan Black
Firefly
Mystery Science Theatre 3000.

JoJo's bizzare adventure. My brother loves the series but I think it's okay not really amazing
Same, indifferent on part 1, but part 2 was amazing.

couldn’t enjoy anything beyond that because the shift to stands gave me too much whiplash

MCU

I adore Iron Man 1 and 2, and OG Captain America is a great movie despite its flaws.

Everything else I have to force myself to suffer through rather than enjoy

The current season of America. Frankly, there are too many plot twists. The repeated attempts on Trump and how he keeps dodging bullets? PLOT ARMOR MUCH? Then the obvious way they had to write out Biden and then decided to race and gender swap him. I'm sorry. I'm just sick of all these "Grrrl Boss" stories. Although the fact her VP pick has jerked off a horse to harvest its sperm is a plot twist I did not see coming.

And JFK Jr and how he dumped a dead baby bear in Central Park? C'MON! The writers are just REACHING for clickbait at this point.

Frankly, the world-building for Earth in general sucks, but I've become quite invested in the franchise. I dunno. I gave up on everything else, I'll decide if I want to keep watching after the end of the season. I'm hoping they get new writers.

Writer here, I am sorry you didn't like how the season is coming together but I recommend you continue watching. Our team has many exciting developements planned and it all will come together soon enough.

Wheel of Time. It's the most, "women being imbeciles" series I tried to complete. Book 6 meant nothing!

Man, I loved Dragon Ball Z up to the end of the Frieza saga, when Goku first turned super saiyan! The showdown between Goku and Frieza was fucking EPIC! But I think the novelty of the super saiyan stuff wore off after the Cell saga. Now, after all these damn super saiyan levels, I'm pretty much sick of it. A once novel and powerful idea has become distasteful to me from overuse. smh
