Sum it up in a Sentence:

Main Description
Set at the end of the 19th century, Nadia is a story about a young girl involved in a chase around the world with a motley crew with hidden secrets. The concept sounds like something from Miyazaki because it was his idea, originally. However, the idea was shelved and Miyazaki left TOHO. The idea was later pitched to Gainax, and handled by most of the creative team that would later work on Neon Genesis Evangelion (Anno, Sadamoto, Masuo, Maeda, Sagisu, etc..).
The adventures themselves take place among the settings of the Nautilus fighting against the forces of Neo Atlantis, a cultish group bent on the domination of international trade and the world. There are many tight spots, submarine fights, bits of mysterious mythology, secrets, and twists along the way. Many of the story elements that would later be used in Evangelion are present in Nadia, but the show itself is not dominated by the artistic vision of Anno.
The Korean Episodes
13 episodes in the middle of the series were farmed out to cheaper animation in Korea, leading to an overall drop in the quality for those episodes (22-34). The episodes themselves are very light on story exposition, instead being mostly filler surrounding Nadia and Jean. Some recommend watching only 22 and 34 of these episodes, and skipping the rest.
