A lot of people didn't like Phantom at first though I personally consider the first arc to be the best.
Anime has 2 time skips and after each time skip setting changes a lot and gives different feeling. Second setting is where most of the interests had risen. I really recommend you to watch till second setting and a bit of it and then decide.
Second setting starts at episode 12.
First 3 episodes in 1st arc are mostly training but later actual action starts. Episodes 5 and 10 were my faves in arc 1. Episode 11 is mostly recap. The way some main characters act changes with each arc because of the time that has passed. It is mostly noticeable with the main hero.

If you want to get through first arc as fast as possible than the main thing starts from episode 7 from where it all builds up towards arc ending. Till then it were more like small arcs.

Hope that helps.

P.S. Well you can always read Ga-Rei manga though from what I saw I was dissapointed =/
Never read it properly.
