I take it there is some kind of pun or word play using the わ/ワ characters going on?
No idea, but I did go back and update the 3rd page with a TN, since wakame is a type of edible brown seaweed, and Koume's wavy hair could be said to be similar in color and form. It's like remembering someone's name as "megane" (glasses) just because they wear glasses. It's probably intended to be humorous, and add a bit more to the punch-line of Miho forgetting Koume's name.
As for the other "wa" of wani (gator), it has to do with the infamous manga page of Phase Erika (post #2485194) where the artist mistakenly used "wani" instead of "wayo", and Erika being associated with alligators ever since.
They had a good scene in Cheating Detective Satori where Yuugi gave her booze, listened to her vent about her motivations and went from being mad at her to deciding to help her with her revenge.
This series of works is made around episode 5-6, where in Chinese community, start a discussion on how toxic Sakiko actually is as a character, including countless heartbreak she caused around her relationship.

After an attempt to translate...thank God that is a hard one.
Especially the translation cannot meaningfully break communal barrier between two language community. This depiction of Sakiko as a bitch really is due to her series of poor decision making, that exposed her weakness blatantly. But Chinese community do not accept her "no character growth", especially 2 seasons have passed and the show is almost over.

I'll try to clean up grammar as I go, but I can see why the Chinese community fucking HATES her. In terms of other IPs, Sakiko is eerily similar to Kanade Yoisaki, who has a savior complex which she developed after the loss of her mother drives her father to a coma, despite her trying to make a song to cheer him up. Ever since she's pivoted towards Mafuyu as the focus of her savior complex, and with recent announcements, I don't think it's boding well for her at all.
Not sure if this is a crop of a larger image (neither SauceNAO nor Google Image Search pointed to one and I don't seem one briefly thumbing through the artist's pixiv).
