G Gundam goes like this:
1-11: Introduction arc
12-17: Shinjuku arc
18-24: Guyana Highlands arc
25-onwards: Hong Kong Finals, the best part of the show.

The Introduction and Guyana Highlands arc both drag in places. That Introduction might feel like a ton of filler, but a lot of it starts adding up later. The Shinjuku arc is a lot more like a normal Gundam show.

Btw, which Giant Robo? If you mean the OVA "The Day the Earth Stood Still," it has the same director as G Gundam.

Okay so if I'm not sold by episode 12, I am done!

Like I say it isn't so much the filler, but it's just logicless and not in a fun way and I have no interest in following a flawless, hax protagonist who only struggles in a fight if they need false tension in that moment. It and Tekka seem to suffer from basically the same problems, which is extra annoying when you're watching them back to back.

And wow, how is Giant Robo so good and this, so meh?
