Pop Step and Makoto: From Enemies to Friends

My Hero Academia: Vigilantes Episode 10shows Pop Step (Kazuho Haneyama) and Makoto Tsukauchi getting closer. Since Makoto was introduced in the story,Kazuho has clearly felt jealous of her, especially because romance may be potentially blooming between Makoto and Koichi.

Makoto seemingly doesn’t notice, or doesn’t care about it. Furthermore, it is not clear if Makoto is romantically interested in Koichi or if she just wants tolearn more about Vigilantes due to her researchon the subject. Given the manga, Makoto will eventually fall in love with him, but it seems she is not in love yet.
