The short and bloodless battle could have been sold better. In a TNG episode someone (Worf) would have mentioned some ancient Klingon marital ritual of ritual combat. Even better when it’s a story from Klingon mythology. Then they could call a P‘Qouth and duke it out for a symbolic minute.
Helping people by force to save them from death is something that’s often done IRL, e.g. evacuations, suicide watch. Saving endangered species is a goal of many people and countries today. Saving an extraterrestrial sapient species and culture against their will is an easy case to make.


Sensible post, besides the glorification of the Ottoman Empire. The brutality and corruption of the Ottomans are the reason the Middle East and to a lesser extent the Balkans are such a shitshow.


Ritual combat is a thing.


Ritual combat is something Klingons have a lot of cultural understanding and respect for. This fits right in.


Don’t expect too much. It’s corny with very simple preachy messaging. The writing is cheesy and filled with sloppy humor. The show plays everything very safe.
I do have to say though, that episode 3 was okay and 4 approaching good. The first two were a boring pandering fest.


Cute. Might buy and then play with it for an hour. Then put it with my other unused tiny computing devices.
Could be nice as a controller for something portable.


This is a beautiful piece of art. The sounds it makes is especially cool.
