Before Nick's Grimm came into being and before his Aunt Marie, indulged him in things to come, he was a wholesome boy scout homicide detective obeying and enforcing the law.
All this talk about his aunt influence wasn't the only thing that made him the Grimm we saw. Besides his aunts influence, he had his own and well established moral compass. No matter what a few weirdos wish to claim about this character, this is who he was in the beginning of the show.
As his situation changed and getting harder and harder to enforce the law on this world of Wesen, he had to change. His change made him in this current type of Grimm using the law, when he could to put away criminal Wesen and using the law of the "Grimm", when he could not.
Maybe using the term "post-modern", might not be the right term to use. To me, "post-modern Grimm", insinuate.s "after-modern times". I would prefer to use "current Grimm" being applied to Nick, Kelly, Trubel and Rolek
Let the nay-Sayers wish what they want. Nick's influence changed the current Grimms we saw into a new type of Grimm. A Grimm, unlike how his mom used to be, who killed Wesen on sight. Yea, that is right. eventually, his way of being a Grimm also changed his mother Kelly. Rolek refused to kill on his own account and since he currently died, I included him in the same current times Grimm.
Like you said, there is no controversy. Just more main character haters trying to make a mountain out of a molehill
dicappatore, I think you give a good description of what shaped Nick as a Grimm.
Regarding the term “post-modern” Grimm – it was just a word the creators used in an interview, when describing Nick as a new kind of Grimm. They could have called him a “modern Grimm”, but I don't understand what all the fuss is about.
