Alternate Character Interpretation: Jala. Is she a psychopathic killer, or a victim of Kalsim and her people's prejudices? She's certainly been conditioned to believe that Kalsim is the one who keeps her safe, and it's a huge betrayal to her when he shoots her. But in that same lens, perhaps Kalsim had been betraying her trust practically her entire life. She might have been able to pass as normal if not for the Krakotl captain turning her into a weapon.
Was it murder or an act of mercy when Jala took Zarn's life? It's framed as her killing him simply because he's slowing them down, but there was no way that Zarn would go to humans for aid with that snakebite. Jala's actions probably spared him hours of agony and suffering.
Callsi started as an unnamed bartender appearing in chapter 82 of the main story, and proved to be popular for being a Mama Bear for her adopted human son, to the point she eventually got her own patreon-exclusive miniseries narrating said adoption.
The unnamed Krakotl character Glim meets in chapter 83 was well-liked for being a Krakotl who actually doesn't act like a Feathered Fiend with humans.
Fan Nickname: Operation Blindside was a fanfiction centering around the initial bombing raid that was part of the preemptive strike launched upon the Gojid union. As the operation is never named in the main story, Operation Blindside became a fandom-wide name for the mission.
Kalsim's attempt to Kill All Humans by way of carpet-bombing Earth with antimatter bombs is the point where the readers stopped wishing for him to see the errors of his way, and instead for his death/imprisonement. By extension, the sheer amount of species participating in the extermination fleet makes it a MEH for the Federation as a whole, as after that point there is no other possible outcome between it and Humanity than total war.
Kalsim's second Jala crosses it in turn when she callously executes Zarn, who is dying of a cobra bite, just for being slow. She then tries to do the same to Arjun. At that point, even Kalsim realizes she has gone too far.
The Federation had crossed it already centuries ago when they erased the culture of several species, including the Gojid's and the Krakotl's, and forcefully converted their population to vegetarianism.
Shaza horrifies even fellow Arxur when she decides to eat a human, which Arxur do see as true sapients, effectively committing cannibalism in their eyes. Even her own fleet finds it revolting.
Fridge Horror: All those mentally broken sapients freed from cattle farms are going back to a world whose approach to mental healthcare could charitably be called quackery, and the only species with decent knowledge of how to treat mental illness properly are predators like their captors.
