For me personally, the answer to the original question would be "only once no other non-violent means are available".

Does this resonate, or would you consider it different to your perspective? I see them as similar.

Surely protecting is by definition preemptive since it means you are not allowing the violence against yourself or someone else to occur? Not saying your first point is wrong just doesn't seem consistent to me.

Only revenge/retribution would not be preemptive which imo is not better.

Hey, the anime isn't going anywhere. You can still enjoy it whenever you like. Just accept this isn't for you, and be happy for the people it is for instead of gatekeeping.

Absolutely not. Citizens can be just as much a victim of terrorist states as those they affect beyond their borders, and are just as deserving of humanitarian aid as any other civilian in an active warzone.

Not a fan of the framing here, 'were' vs 'would be' as if the later is just a hypothetical rather than the reality of civilians in Gaza.

Highly recommend the podcast 'It's probably not aliens' if you want to find out more about the real history of the claims made in these kind of shows, and how the claims of aliens are often rooted in racism and colonialism

Any particular goals with Ada? Had an academic curiosity for a few years but never used it in earnest.

Deliberately trying to burn the house down on the way out more likely

Bit disappointed in the 'other galaxy', and the lack of effort to make it feel different. Especially the local raiders being basically tuskans, using the same energy rifles as the main galaxy, more sisters of dathomir just with a different name and they still know of and care about the jedi.

Would really have liked it to feel more distinct from the star wars galaxy, like it had a truely separate history, and not just like another planet.

This episode had a lot of positives though, more insight into Balen's motives and the new storm trooper armour was great.
