so why excatly does does Layla want Sora to work with someone who intentionally injures his partners in potentially leathal/career ending ways?

Leon's a buttface. Wasn't he just bullying her? When Ken said, at the beginning, that he thought Leon had realised her weakness and was trying to fix it, I was already thinking that Ken was giving Leon too much credit... I think Layla's right. Leon's just afraid of Sora. I think he's maybe intimidated by her ability to make everyone enjoy her performances... And hey, she is skilled as well.

May's character continuously annoys me more and more. she is practically a nuisance rather than a potential plot device. only a brat would storm in uninvited to something Sora was INVITED to do and attempt to smother Sora by bashing her without reservation. what's worse is she wholeheartedly believes it's all fine and dandy to do it.

Layla also disappointed me when she allowed it to happen AND agreed to play May in the act as well. i was expecting her to verbally throw her off the stage and put May in her place... what a letdown

Kalos and Layla seem to have undergone some character replacement surgery; don't think they would have put up with the shit May keeps pulling in the first season.

Started fast forwarding every time May shows, and I still can only barely make it through.

May is infuriating. I had been really enjoying this but now every time May shows up I rage a little bit inside.

No you do not just go and follow Sora all the way to New York and then ask to take her place. What the actual fuck.

And I agree with Lorenzhno. Layla regressed for me here. I'm actually disappointed because ep. 26 left a really good impression of Layla in my mind but now I don't know what to think.
Sora's turned a bit into a door mat continuously letting herself be walked all over. What happened to all those times she used to speak loudly for herself and others? She was so good at that. Sigh.


Also I can't help but notice that the discussions are off in this thread... we seem to be watching different eps. lol.

Layla shows up! I miss her. And I really wish May had stayed aside this episode. I was glad Layla and Sora could talk even with a nuisance there, but WHY does this girl is so freaking jealous of Sora and does everything to get on her way/to copy her? So annoying, oh my god.

The fact that Layla still can see Fool~~~ ♥♥

THIS. I wasn't able to take it anymore after episode 31. Whenever she's up babbling about how she's going to beat Sora and how she is oh-so-great I just have to fast-forward. She does absolutely nothing for the plot, holy shit.

This show actually sucks now. I wish MAL split the seasons because the first half is worthwhile as an old-fashioned "friendship can make it work!" sort of cute anime. But from 26 on it is not just not good but it is straight up dogshit. Even without May and Leon being horrendous annoying-as-hell characters the idea of Sora going all the way back down to being a clueless useless performer that has to "find the answers inside" is boring and terrible writing. Its literally as if season 1 didn't happen aside from the characters Sora met still being around for some reason.
