It might be a cliche, a character archetype, a trope, a setting, a theme, anything. Which are the ones that make you enjoy the work more? Which are the ones that you hate to see? And which are the ones who you'd be fine with, if not so overused?

I dislike isekais where side characters madly fall in love with MC without any in-world reason.

Fuck. I hate that too. And a lot of authors try to cover it with a sloppy reason, like "because you were nice to me~".

Another of those romance things that I dislike is how the female love interest(s) keep chasing a male protagonist, without any sort of resolution. He neither shuns them away, nor returns their feelings; they don't give up either.
