I can imagine this conversation:

mangaka: I've run out of ideas. Maybe it's time to wrap things up.

editor: No, no, no! You can't end it yet. You've gotta get it past the 50 chapter mark first! I know, how about introducing a rival who goes after Unoki? No, that won't work. We don't want Toramaru to actually murder anyone. I got it! Let's turn the side-kick delinquent girls into a lesbian couple. That should waste ten or twenty chapters as a side-plot. At the same time, we can create a misunderstanding where Toramaru thinks Unoki is in love with one of her sidekicks. Yeah, that works!

I'm with @Exile on this one: "if I wanted to read a Yuri series I would read a Yuri series," and to quote @Akemua, "Fuck your diversity."

Don't mind yuri as long the author didn't made it like a caricature, like most manga that fethisize yuri

Guys. How about this: To each their own.

If you are cool with gay characters suddenly popping up in your hetero romcom then that's perfectly fine. It's also perfectly understandable that other people would be pissed about a manga that aligns with their tastes would suddenly inject something that is not. People have different preferences. If you care about "diversity" then you should also be tolerant of that.

Personally I don't mind it so much. It does come off as a bit desperate. The author waited too long to introduce new characters and has seemed to have run out of ideas to keep the main couple interesting.

I'm pretty much ok with a Yuri side story and don't see a big deal about it. It's not a part of the main two characters so can't imagine why there would be. It just adds to the development of the surrounding characters. Better than having lame side characters just for gags which it seemed like in the beginning of this one but I'm liking the them more and more as they all develop.

Normally I get annoyed with the inclusion of homosexual characters MOSTLY because it's done terribly - acting completely different from others and they're considered super special which isn't realistic.
Also it's frustrating when it's overdone - like jamming multiple homosexual characters into a small closed space. Ao no Flag sort of gets my jimmies for this exact reason. You have two homosexual characters that each like one of the MCs. I just think about how unlikely something like that even is. That being said even in THAT series the homosexual relationship is done extremely well and I can't complain.

This series is also fine with how it's handling it. It was hinted at throughout the series and now we get a little character development moment as a parallel to the MC.
She's not super confident in herself and is scared it could ruin her relationship with the other girl. I mean that's literally every crush ever.

It's not like there's this sudden development, she's always been in love with her and its been hinted since the first flashback. You wouldn't willingly expose your cleavage and remove your glasses for no reason.

of course some folks cant help but have a meltdown about the very obvious gay pairing the author has been hinting from the very beginning, of fucking course.

Literally my only problem is that one of them is the stereotypical psycho lesbian.


Seriously, why are psychotic/psychopathic lesbians a trope?


Honestly, Yutaka is one of my favourite characters, basically because she's the only person who consistently understands what's going on, realises how everyone else is misunderstanding things, and acts logically. Even her not confessing to Matsuri before makes sense, considering the fact that Matsuri is so obsessed with Toramaru that she tried to murder Unoki with a knife in broad daylight right outside the school. It's not exactly unreasonable to think someone you've been close friends with since childhood isn't interested in you when it gets to that point.
