Anyway Heat Guy J is the sheezy because it's action without mope, without pretensions to dakyrness, without forced wisecracking, and with huge awesome robot with magnifique physique. The lead character, Daisuke, is part of a genre of heroes popular for the last five years or so in anime and manga - like Great Teacher Onizuka and Kintaro, these are a kind of reformed badass with "human feeling." It's a genre of hero I find particularly appealing, but you probably don't because they aren't Italians. For serious, if the cracked rice bowl scene in the second or third episode were voice-acted by Robert DeNiro and Al Pacino, you would be touting this show as the greatest thing since lesbian porn.

You probably didn't like Fist of the North Star either, whereas I believe it is one of the best action B-movies in existence.
