I don't know if it's confirmed but I'm choosing to accept that the Vance aide calling him evil is a subtle reference to the real world cockwomble.
It's a major plot point in the series that Ake thought that the judicial decision she had to make was the wrong one. She resigned over it. Ake herself disagreed with your assessment.
She also made a deal with Anisha beforehand.
And again, the issue is episode one describes something different from what this episode does.
Anyway, I like the character of Nus Braka but I have to wonder about all of his pop culture references. I mean I do hundreds of them in my books but my characters are from the 20th and 21st centuries. You can make Chaucer references today but probably not "The Revolution will be Televised" 1000 years later. They ABSOLUTELY WOULD NOT have the Price is Right.

Yeah, but that sucks. This is better!
Nus does rhyme with Bruce...
It's a Nusy bonus.Nus Forsythe, "Nice to beam you, to beam you nice ..."
"Cuddly Toy"
Yeah, it doesn't say she helped rob the Federation.
Yeah, in my avatar and signature. I'm an author. I do a lot of Buffy and Dresden-esque comedy.
Don't forget the virus they infected the Founders with during the war.
That was the Volume using reused set pieces from Picard.Yeah, they hate making new sets. Like when they built that huge alien market set for last episode.
Say what? It does.
NAHLA:
Facts are facts. You brought down a Federation supply vessel and murdered the shuttle pilot to steal food rations.
Anisha I felt really brought this episode down, she's not a good person and not a particularly strong character. She doesn't really have any redeeming qualities and doesn't seem to commit to being a good parent or a criminal and is kind of just a boring drip.
I honestly don't care if we never see her again. The character doesn't work fot me at all and would need a serious retooling to be engaging.

"Anisha Mir, what would have been a charge of theft became felony theft with the death of that pilot."
I'm puzzled how you're saying Episode 1 doesn't say Anisha stole from thw Federation. It clearly does. I'm not seeing the discrepancy here.
Keep in mind when arguing Anisha's culpability.
This is the future where they could have entirely prevented the death by flipping the switch on their weapons to "stun" before attacking the shuttle. Which means, like it or not, both of them went into it with the mindset to kill anyone who got in their way.

Additionally, as Ake said here, since Anisha was the one who got the schematics to that shuttle, the crime wouldn't have occured in the first place if she didn't use those for it. So she absolutely IS responsible.
Depends on the weapon, not every culture creates weapons that even have a stun setting.
Liked the episode!
Now that the season is over, I can honestly say I loved this series; it has so much potential, and I'm rooting really hard for it to last its desired 4 seasons!
I do however have some criticism, on a more esthetic side and regarding the production... Others have said it, but the Atrium sets are way overused... They were used for Kasq, for Nus' trial, etc... I miss the ambition to be more varied when it comes to sets and locations..! And even in the later episodes, the DOTs that were present in almost every Atrium-shot in the first episodes, were all but missing..! Same goes for Lura: where was she in those final episodes? Except for some short scenes in Rubicon, I just really missed her there! It's a minor thing perhaps... But I hope season 2 will be a bit more varied and ambitious in that regard...

How the fuck were they stupid? They were cute.
The show didn't have a big budget.
The trial wasn't a reuse of the Atrium like Kasq though it was literally in the Atrium it would be like saying the promenade set was overused.
