It's because they didn't write it that way. In the Director's commentary Miles said that he intended for the slaps to just be slaps on the shoulder, like Blake was just annoyed with Sun. Whoever animated that scene misunderstood and made Blake full on slap Sun in the face several times. Miles even said that caught him off guard when he first saw it.

If you're talking about the first time she slapped him though, that was definitely intentional. Though I think it's more excusable here because it was in the heat of the moment after a difficult battle. It also happened before the scene with Jacques and Weiss, so we didn't have that more serious instance of someone getting slapped fresh in our heads like we did the second time it happened with Blake and Sun, making it less jarring.
