Excuse me...this is the internet. Please take your reasonableness and exit in an orderly fashion.
Yeah, there are certainly some of his opinions that I don't agree with either. It's only natural that different critics are going to have different opinions. I know that I have some very unpopular opinions about certain pieces of media, both anime and Western media (I have written before about how I couldn't stand Clannad for example). What I do appreciate about a good media critic is that you might not agree with their opinions, but that they are able to articulate why they have those opinions. If they aren't able to tell you that, then it is no different than some random person just hitting you with their personal favorites list.
As for AoT, it was kind of wild to be an anime fan and attending cons pre vs. post AoT. That show (Season 1 from 2013), along with Sword Art Online (Season 1 from 2012), brought a whole new generation of fans into the medium. The show finally ending this season was certainly a milestone for many. However, like you, I dropped off at a certain point (I actually don't remember where, somewhere in season 2 I think).
