Ch. 173 ends with a substantial scene where Yoshida and Mako have an edgy little encounter. Mako goes full force on her not-quite-clear-why obsession with Yoshida's future plans, angering Yoshida. Yoshida says it's not of Mako's business and stomps off to the rest room. Mako looks seriously stricken and hurt.

Then, when Yoshida tries to make up by saying she will think about the future, Mako asks her whether a boy has seen her naked. Yoshida is incensed and defensive, assuming that Tomoko has been talking about the shower incident.

Mako...says that Yoshida "shouldn't be playing with boys while everyone is studying hard." If you take away the conditional phrase at the end of that sentence, you have her saying that Yoshida shouldn't play with boys.

It's hard to know what's happening for sure, but Mako is not acting in the same kind of meddling way that she does with Minami. This is the Mako who made sure to get through to Yoshida while Yoshida was in detention, at which point she scolds Yoshida for not considering others in her future decision.

My take on this? Setting aside explicit yuri. Mako cares about Yoshida's future. Mako wants to be in Yoshida's future and vice versa. Mako is uneasy about Yoshida's possible involvement with guys. Mako is not worried about saying these things.

It's not hard to draw some conclusions.

Woah, this artist's images really ARE realistic. I'm glad someone mentioned they have so much more. Can't wait to see more

^Huh, I wondered what that red streak in the sky was. Thought it was a flare. Either way, I ignored it and told no one

It's like the Wendy's mascot proposed to the Starbucks' mascot. Awwwww...

The name "Painwheel" just piqued my interest into looking up whatever this series is

wwwwwwwfully nice weather we're having

"Everybody gets one"

Are they bathing in the blood of their enemies? It's kinda what I expect from them

^ Thanks, I'll just deal with it as best I can.

Huh? I don't think Quetz normally has horns?

The most flattering picture possible.

Yukari ... You really should know better than to try and separate Yuyuko from food.

Also, Yuyuko's expression in the second panel is amazing.

It's a fighting game with a very anime/cartoony style.

For a second I thought it was real.

I really didn't expected for this.

I missed this couple <3

that poor innocent college student is being victimized by the pink-haired menace!

Her arm is a little weird...

Neko bring us more blessed chibi NozoEli. I couldn't be happier

The biggest betrayal for Rhea must be when you got an A-Support with her and a C+ with edelgard before the timeskip and you chose Edelgard over her xD

Oh, so precious.
