It’s the Black Tri-Stars! Looks like they’re just the Black Two-Stars for the sake of Clan Battle, though.

One even got be Mayor of... some place? Where is he in the hierarchy of Side 6?

lol alright then.

Didn't say that about Nyaan. Haro sure has favourites...

Let’s go, girl!

Creators realised we might be liking Machu less by now, so they gave us some acab to remind us how awesome she is.

…is Nyaan going to pilot it now?

Machu won't disappear from Xavier's radar. Next love triangle will be MachuxXavierxComoli!

Hoh, Nyaan triggered the Omega Psycommu too…

Go wild, Nyaan

Damn, Nyaan.

Yeah, that was... hm.

Machu won't disappear from Xavier's radar.

50-50 on that. He's pathetic enough that his assumptions and the Gquuuuuux showing up could be enough for him to write her off as the suspect.

Oh absolutely, but that doesn't need to mean she disappears from his mind. I could see him waiting for her in front of the school gate and being like "Sorry for being weird to you, can I treat you to something as an apology?" and Machu thinks saying yes makes it easier for him to stop bothering her, which the others find out about and hilarity and drama ensues.

But then again, such a plot would likely require more episodes...

I mean, Xavier might not be the most skilled in the world, but he's not incompetent. He didn't take a single thing Machu said or did at face value the whole time they were in that locker. Machu was operating on kid logic, and Xavier on adult logic. "Of course she'd deny knowing about Clan Battle if she's worried about getting caught" vs "I should just deny knowing anything, and then in the same sentence mention it's a gambling thing." The least suspicious answer would have been "I've heard of it, yeah, but I don't know much about it. Isn't it some kind of gambling thing? [Random classmate name] said she heard you can earn a lot of money doing that."

Xavier's not great at his job, but he at least knows Machu is fishy and her answers did noting to clear her. I'd assume he's at least competent enough to report the encounter to Challia.

Yeah but she could also play off a lot of her words and reaction to "Random strange man threw me in a locker and pinned me in here, I'm scared as hell". Especially since apparently she's going to the fancy girl's school.

Mash's probably governing an individual colony.
