Well.... Natsu has received more hatred than Erza and I'm pretty sure his behaviour in the recent fight was favourable to most so.... it's just bias really.

Also, regarding youtubers, there is a reason why you choose such reviewers based on what they 'love' over what they do to maintain a status quo. Forneverworld is one of the few that didn't drop FT but it is clear that FT is not his 'thing' as it were because he has shown distaste for various aspects of the series over the years that sometimes had nothing to do with asspulls or nakama power. Let's face it, FT will never be the next RAVE so best to just make the best of it and enjoy what you can. Mashima uses the same patterns for the most part(heck even the changes are humorously called out by characters) so expecting a drastic change is silly. I know other series where I must struggle to find interest in each chapter and mostly just find amusement in the tropes used rather than the actual characters and I find that some reviewers avoid those series and are thus unaware of the true piles of shite out there.
