Dunno, considering the games and anime I have played and watched for nitro+ they have never wasted so much time before moving into the "main plot"

I think you are confusing permanently magnetized materials with electromagnetism... if I remember correctly in the first case the bipole is created by the arrangement of particles within the atomic structure, while in the later witch applies from the your bikes lamp to stars it's the flow/current of charged particles that can create multi-pole magnetic fields... in between, I am no expert, just trying to remember what I was studying ages ago

But something like R;N and S;G require time for you to get to know the characters and flesh out the world they inhabit. They are, after all, originally VNs!
S;G got very quickly into the main plot and developed its casts through it, dunno how important robo1 will end up being, but now it doesn't seem all that significant.
