If I had to choose, I guess I'd go with Nyelve, mostly since I'm curious about what he's up to. He seems to have his own secret motivation.

Yeah, they got what they deserved. Not condoning Stomach's evil operations or anything like that either, but it's good that Lango values individual merit and won't tolerate his incompetent younger twin siblings screwing around and begging for help all the time.

Also Shouma literally acting like a mature, professional senpai... I can't xD

Good thing Shouma was wearing coveralls, since Hanto can't just lift up his shirt like he did with Suga. Gavv blowing the sempai wind to Valen is like how Blades did to Saber.

Suetsugu's a good guy deep down and he acknowledged that he was wrong for using Sachika as a canvas for his paint of anger. Granute Dean's color is totally orange though, haha.

I'd been looking forward to the Dual Chocolate scene since the trailer and it certainly didn't disappoint! Especially since it's also the first time we get to see Gavv, Valen and even Sachika working together to defeat the MOTW.

Probably a cultural thing, but I guess they'd generally react less severely if Sachika looked up the female-looking suspects' shirts. Still risky though.

Shouma must also be dependent on Sachika to give him all the reasons to hang around with her. Basically, to make Sachika more relevant to the story, Shouma must be dependent on her and Mr. Shioya must die. So, yes, once again this story demonstrates its heavy-handedness without even trying to hide it.

That just sounds like basic cause and effect to me. Shioya was presumably "killed" for Nyelve's hidden agenda, rather than him being a random unlucky victim who's merely killed to further the plot for Hanto. That's not what I'd call heavy-handed, especially if there's a way for Shioya to come back later.
