There's an unofficial "3 episode rule" for a reason. Some series take a while to get going and hook you in. Has there ever been an anime that you were either bored with or disliked at first but later came to enjoy? If so please share what anime they were and what exactly the turning point was for you.
For me it was Hunter x Hunter and Legend Of The Galactic Heroes. I always respected HxH for being a unique shounen that had clear influences on Naruto but it wasn't until coming across Aleczandxr's videos on the series that I could fully understand and appreciate things that initially went over my head.
With LOTGH I think it took about 20 episodes since a lot of the dry political talk and ongoing power struggle can be hard to care about until you get invested in the characters themselves. Once I started to care for characters on both sides of the political power struggle though it became one of my favorite anime of all time. It's like Star Wars meets The Wire lol.
