Tropes exhibited by May include:
  • Anime Chinese Girl
  • Armor-Piercing Slap: To Sora, when she declines Cathy's offer to compete for the role of Juliet. May, already emotionally distraught for a short while, snapped so badly that she started screaming at Sora and then slapped her in front of everyone.
  • Break the Haughty: Not only she falls victim to Leon's "curse" when he deliberately injures her to knock her off her pedestal, but later she gets called out more than once on her arrogance - especially by Layla, her own idol.
  • Brutal Honesty: Has even less of a thoughts-to-words filter than Layla.
  • Child Prodigy: Subverted. May was an ice skating prodigy as a little girl, as revealed by her coach Meredith, but ultimately decided to ditch skating (thought she still skates once in a while) to focus solely on the Kaleido Stage.
  • Don't You Dare Pity Me!: Her Berserk Button.
  • Hot-Blooded
  • Jerkass: At first.
  • The Lancer: To Sora in second season.
  • Large Ham: Thanks to Loudly Calling Her Techniques, and literally barking at Sora in her earlier appearances.
  • Plucky Girl: When she gets over herself.
  • Spoiled Brat: Until she gets better.
  • Supreme Chef: As long as it's Chinese.
  • Tsundere: Extremely tsuntsun, switches to deredere as she develops.

  • The Mentor
  • My Greatest Failure: Has blamed himself for more than 10 years for the death of Yuri's dad.
    • Unwitting Instigator of Doom: He believes himself to be such, since he asked Aaron if he truly was up to performing the very dangerous Fantastic Maneouver... few before Aaron failed to do it and died, which is the reason why Yuri is pissed off at him enough to try buying out the Stage as Revenge.
  • Self-Made Man: He started as a self-taught stage magician who performed in the streets. 20 years later he's the owner of the world-famous Kaleido Stage.
