Hate on saturian moons is lowkey crazy tbh.

Does Saturn love them? Yes, of course, it's clear from his reaction at mere idea that he destroyed some in the past. And he was willing to put effort in getting to learn their names.

But did he respect them at the time around revolution? Not really.

We can see in the very introduction of the moons how Saturn ends up misnaming almost all of them. I often see people excusing Saturn by the fact he has 274 moons, but keep in mind, those that he mispronounced weren't small distant moons that are most likely just captured asteroids. They are moons who are major and orbit very close, helping to maintain, if not outright create (in case of Enceladus) rings that he loves so much. But he still doesn't know the way he supposed to pronounce their names. And keep in mind he had millions if not billions years to learn their names. Which makes it even more obvious is the fact all moons literally correct him, and by reaction it's clear they are used to this. Saturn most likely was told their name countless times, and yet, he never bother to actually listen.

And then there's the situation about him possibly killing moons. It is shown that moons know their position, as Iapetus tells that gas giants could easily destroy all the moons if they wanted to. Their lives are under the giant planets that can kill every single moon if they wanted to. And imagine learning that a person who can destroy you in one second actually did destroy somebody before. Someone as small and fragile as you are. Of course it would push them over the edge, no matter how much remorse Saturn feels

Sun Analysis: Spoilers Ahead

The Sun has issue, obviously. But his choice to separate Theia and Proto makes sense in his head, he's saving them an accident. But to them he's practically ruining them. They loved each other more than themselves, and being permanently separated is one of the worst things the Sun could have done.

Now my personal analysis on this is, yes becoming a double planet was risky. But I think one of the big reason Sun didn't want it to happen is because due to the trauma, grief, and loss he has endured. He is scared despite his denial, and it's because of his denial that he can't heal. It's kind of like someone who needs a hug but doesn't know it and refuses to admit it. He can't and hasn't healed, because his denial makes him not take in and process any wake up calls the planets try to tell him. Because he's a dictator, Ganymede was correct about it. He just sees himself as protecting his planets, and he's to focused for wake up calls to work.

Some titania analysis ig?

Titania's first appearance came in Moons of Uranus. Back then she is shown as harsh and strict. Taking care of the rest of Uranian moons. She is distrustful of Titan (which is understandable given the fact her planet threatened to kill them) and originally refuses to join his cause. While it is made clear Titania is acting like caretaker for her group, we also get the first insight of her being authorian. She refuses to listen whenever or not they want to go for the revolution. This could've been explained by how leaving the Kuiper belt was dangerous given the fact it would take them to pass Uranus' orbit. But this doesn't change the fact Titania doesn't listen to what goes against her will.

This patter can be seen repeatedly in her behavior. More recent episodes when Caelus leaves are obvious example. From Oberon asking that maybe they should stay just to be shut out to her complete refusal to acknowledge the reasoning why she can't go orbit another planet.

This way, Titania acts a lot like Titan in the moon club arc when he refused to get Ganymede and Europa in despite what everyone else said. And as Titania was the first one to call him out, saying that 'you make all the decisions flr the rest of the moons' shows that she most likely doesn't have enough self-awareness to understand how simulare her behavior is.

She is not afraid to confront the Sun or tell him that he's bluffing and remind that he needs the rest of the solar system. However the moment Sun goes berserk and says that he doesn't need balance' she's quickly pushed back. Together with the fact Titania was the one hiding from her planet, I think she is not really afraid to rebel, hovewer she doesn't like confrontations and tries to avoid them. Maybe that's the reason why she doesn't allow other Uranian moons to disagree with her.

And when there is no planets, she has nobody to argue agains, this way Titania gets far more open with her ideas, pushing it to extreme of becoming a planet herself.

Honestly, Titania and Caelus' current actions are very simular. They both choose to run away, instead of confronting their own issues. Caelus left the solar system, instead of trying to make others see his point of view and in the very least say his name correctly + refused to acknowledge name change wasn't worth going against everyone. Titania decided to move all the moons to another planet. And where there is none, she suggested becoming new planets without giving it a second thought or trying to understand what is going on.

Do you remember how in old Solarballs episodes the rocky planets used Pluto's name as mockery? And a lot of people assumed they were bad friends? Which is honestly valid, because it seemed like they only cared about his status as a planet.

But in the last arc, we had seen Pluto with the gas giants and all of them semingly cool with Pluto and act very happy to see him as an old friend. Which is pretty contrasting compared to the rocky planet.

And now that I thought about it, Pluto and the rocky planets most likely weren't friends to begin with. We know Sun doesn't like when the planets leave their orbits. And Pluto's orbit is billions of kilometers away. In planets ordered by size arc Mars says that the rocky planets and Ice giants tend to forget about each other because of their distance. Pluto is even further away for the most time. Taking this into fact, the only time he would really be able to interact with the rockies was if the Sun had gather all planets for some reason. And I doubt it was a everyday occurrence. For the rocky planets Pluto probably was just some very very distant planet that barely crossed their minds until his demotion

But as Giants are much further away, interacting with them would be far easier. I'm even going to say he had a huge advantage in being small here, because it's harder to notice him move out of his orbit if he ever did. And with this, Pluto could have much closer relationship with them.
