But given that Mahouka has right-wing aspects of it, it's no big deal as the JSDF can attack forces outside Japan in the name of national security.

I'm no fan of Japanese militarism or the right wing, but let me point out a few things. Realistically, any constitution can be changed. Another thing is that Japan never signed any agreement not to change their constitution.In addition, the current constitution prohibited
offensive wars--this means they cannot declare war on anyone or attack anyone without being done so by an enemy. Since the GAA attacked Japan,the Japanese are free to do anything they want.
