Not sure exactly what is meant by "resonated with you", but I really liked Chihayafuru. It's about an old card game that's niche even in Japan where someone reads out the first half of a poem, and then each competitor tries to touch the card with the second half of that poem first. Sounds boring, but this show is proof that execution is what really matters.

Similarly, Showa Genroku Rakugo Shinju is a great story about aspiring rakugoka. All you need is some good human drama and suddenly anything can be extremely interesting (no offense meant to the art of rakugo).
