Depends how you look at it. Now that Lemursrule has reminded me, Gin more fits the title of Romantic Hero. It is a little broader and not always good but the audience is meant to sympathize with the Romantic Hero to an extent. Machiavellian can be good. It is generally looked down upon but Machiavelli's point of the ends justifying the means was meant to say that no matter what was done to acquire it, the result of that makes up for it. So in a sense Gin's killings could be seen as justified because the end result was killing Aizen, however he failed in completing this so maybe you could say he was then not justified. Don't mind me though, I am just playing a little devil's advocate.
