I hate. One thing I can never get over in manga is that stealth photography and defamation are ILLEGAL! What kind of school newspapers do these schools have? Why is there no oversight into what people are putting out into the world? What the fuck?

To be fair though, we know by now that Kawaru's transformation is a huge problem. Moreso that her partner could trigger her (and others) with his blood - this is even applied to strong willed beasts who already went through harsh training.

It's easy for us readers to just dunk on Utsui, but if you have a family member under constant threat of permanently turning into a beast, endangering themselves and others around them, you'd desperately want to try to stop that possibility, sometimes by any mean necessary.

Now, I wouldn't say her methods are okay, but there are little she could do at this point. Rather than waiting for some evil reporters to suddenly expose her sister one day and they wouldn't have time to prepare for the press, the cops, the scientists, the government spies... to ambush them, she might've thought sabotaging at least give them some sort of control (and hopefully convince her sister to just give up). At least that's probably her mindset, which is morally wrong but still somewhat understandable).
Despite them saying turning into a wolf repeatedly is dangerous, all the other characters have absolutely no issue transforming whenever they want. The cat girl transformed literally just to show Mochizuki she was an animal and tease him. She literally could have just told him. Kuroko also clearly transforms into a crow freely (because we saw her last chapter on top of a power line support just to spy). Based on the brief flashbacks we've seen, Tsukimi's sister has felt free to do it atleast a few times too. Every other character seems to be perfectly able to control themselves and act basically normal when transformed, even the permanently transformed dad. Tsukimi and Mochizuki seem to be the only one that struggle, and probably that's down to practice. The only downside seems to be the ears and tail won't go away, but they can literally just wear a hat to cover that stuff up. Pretty sure the dad is just embarrassed and hates being a wolf, he could easily wear clothes that hide the ears and go about a normal life.

For a while I thought Tsukimi's sister was maybe a Siscon, but even that doesn't make sense when you think about it. The worst possible thing that can happen if she stays with Mochizuki is Tsukimi gets stuck as a wolf and can't go out in public anymore. However Tsukimi's sister's initial goal was to keep her home so she never risked seeing blood and getting stuck as a wolf. But if she's going to be locked up at home anyway, then that's exactly the same as being stuck as a wolf. And she obviously has no issue with people finding out about them based on her methods.

The only explanation that makes sense is that the sister os secretly in love with Mochizuki, but that's an absurd copout and doesn't seem to be where the story is going. I don't think the mangaka bothered to seriously consider most of the character's motivations or the overall plot.
