Eh, I don't like True Neutral as an alignment. To me, it fits with unaligned - that is, beasts and things too dumb to go a certain direction. There is no morality that guides them.

Unless they're just beasts that like killing, then they swerve into chaotic evil.

If Thanos was truely true neutral, then I don't think he would care about the universe at all. It rests as a "he wants to save the universe while killing half of everybody" midpoint, but I think there is an inherent copout in choosing neutral as a midpoint. It's not neutral. He's very much an evil dude that seeks to preserve society and life... hence why I call him lawful evil. If he wasn't evil, his initial solution to Titan's problem wouldn't have been the death lottery.

As for the Gamora thing - evil characters can have positive feelings, like love. The fact that he's willing to kill who he loves for his goal further cements him into evil, in my opinion
