This episode is a great example of why I like Lawrence's character. Unlike the majority of male anime protagonists with a passive personality, Lawrence is very secure in his actions. All too often these characters end up being overly insecure resulting in gushing apologies and whiny monologues filled with indecision. Lawrence on the other hand, apologizes and when questioned, defends his decisions promptly and with resolve. Now that's a strong male lead.

Also, I was curious about use of the word "soft(y)". I'm not sure if that's a literal translation or not but it seemed particularly out of place when Horo was angry at Lawrence. While it could just be me, I felt it was too light hearted of a word to convey the emotion that was intended. I imagined something with an edge like "weak" or "simple" and at 6:13 possibly "lenient".
