When did he do that?

In every way and every post.

Within this thread, obviously.

Shock and awe. Someone disagreed with you while you cry about how you can't possibly be wrong.
Surely that is not
Fuck it. Done caring. Blocked.

I don't even know what is going on any more?

Also fanboyism is a little strong for me on Wizard, I just think it's become a punching bag for people who don't really know what they are talking about and it's a legitimately great series that deserves a chance for people who have been put off.

Fan theories? For God's sake, Locke, anybody whose even been paying attention to the plot sees the progression that Micchy has gone through, even people who don't like the show or don't like the character. Calling it a fan theory just because it doesn't fit in with your preconceived opinion of the character is just childish.

And I don't hold any strong opinions of Wizard either way, and I do plan to watch it once I'm done watching the rest of the series in my queue, but a lot of your argument has been defending Wizard from the same criticisms that you've been giving to Gaim, with rather flimsy reasoning.

A critical assessment requires that your assessment is not clouded by bias, preconceived ideas or the hype surrounding what you are about to discuss. In a way, you've come out as unprepared to discuss Gaim critically as the fanboys that you berate.

And on top of all of this, you're still forgetting that Gaim isn't even over. It still has 10 episodes at very minimum left. How can you critically assess something when you don't even know how things play out?

Because everything you're claiming the characters are going through, has never been stated by the show itself so until what you say is happening actually plays out all you're doing is reading the piece. A reading of a piece is not fact.

Every episode is as much designed to be viewed on its own, as it is part of a wider unit, so you should be able to have as much discussion one episode in as you can fifty.

OH. You're saying interactions, dramatic tension, and character development has to be monologued, narrated, and spoken to be considered actually relevant? Finally someone who understands good storytelling! I personally find it thrilling to be spoon fed exposition, myself.

Furthermore, if you were expected to understand and fully discuss a series based on a single episode alone - in fact, if you were even ABLE to - it would be boring, repetitive, and I'd hope to god it wouldn't last fifty episodes.

No but it does need to actually happen.

And use some common sense, obviously you aren't going to understand the long game from the first episode, but there should be enough for critical discussion in every episode.
