It's pretty easy to sympathize with Luna when seeing her surface including the backstory and "punishment". Note that I said easy, not sensible as sympathizers also ignored the other stunts Luna attempted as well as her own actions and decisions.
I don't think the writers ever knew what they wanted to accomplish with the show. Good intentions aren't very meaningful if the executions of the stories are lacking.
Coming to make sure I'm leaving?
Actually, I thought we worked pretty well together. Not that I'd want to make it a regular event.
She's all yours now, if you can handle that. But you'd better take good care of her 'cause I know where you live.
Put it away, son. It's not worth you getting beat again.
You didn't beat me. You ignored the rules of engagement. In a fair fight, I'd kill you.
That's not much incentive for me to fight fair then, is it?
