My two G on the Mari/Yoha UR debate:

Despite, or perhaps because, I am a YohaRiko shipper, I find that I don't want Yohane to be the matching UR to Riko in this new angelic set. Yohane is a fallen angel, and as such, would no longer be up in the clouds. Riko worries about her lost friend and studies her activities in the human world below. Perhaps, she considers falling herself? She has a happy life in the heavens now, but would she be happier with Yohane back by her side?

Why do I look at things this way, you may ask?

While some see the book with Yohane's symbol in it (1) as evidence that she is to be the matching UR, I see it as evidence that Riko is studying Yohane's activities. Perhaps she wants to know why Yohane fell, or is considering joining her, or is seeking her redemption, or something similar. This thought process is bolstered by the pair of binoculars (2) on the other side of her. Her thoughtful and/or concerned expression while holding a cute pillow for comfort is adorable icing on the cake.

Edit: I suddenly want Yohane to be depicted as either grumpy with or confused by her costume. Perhaps she is picking at the feathers, examining the halo or even just crossing her arms is defiance; something to depict that this is a different style than her typical taste in outfits and she isn't exactly thrilled with it.
