But his actions during the fight pissed me the hell off. Just because you dont want to be there does not mean you put your comrades at risk because it doesnt interest you. "Its ok to lose" NO its not ok to lose because your comrades are working their assess off to win but you held back. The battle could have ended quickly and Nina might have taken less damage. You dont prolong a battle it only leads to more casualties and only when Felli shared her thoughts and it looked like she was going to be taken out did he act. I honestly think Felli and Nina have every right to be pissed off at Layfon.
He needs to understand the situation that hes in NOW not whine about what he does not want to do. The reality is he is in the military arts program and from what i see there is no way out. If he wants to feel dejected about him situation so be in but in battle he better fight to his fullest and move his ass.
Felli words "Traitor" were harsh but i felt accurately described what she was feeling.
Good episode although the fight music once again makes me want to tear my ears off and set them a blaze to protect my high brain functions from degrading from those high pitched repetitive synthesizer notes.

You might want to wait a bit before judging him. Layfan's way of thinking is actually not the norm of what you'd expect from the "reluctant hero" archtype. It really explains why he has made so many seemingly contradictory decisions up to this point.
As for that particular fight, his logic was that because it wasn't a "real" fight, as there was supposedly nothing on the line, there was no reason for him to actually fight for real.
