No, it's not. I'm tired of you saying it's underdeveloped when it's just fucking not.

First of all, this ship has been foreshadowed since volume 2, mostly with the dance arc. Second, LGBT does not need to be foreshadowed, because straight doesn't need to be foreshadowed. Just because your semiliterate ass is incapable of seeing subtext doesn't mean it's not there.
 * It straight up shows us that Yang understands Blake better than anyone and can get through to her like no one else;
 * It has Yang flirt with Blake, phrasing her invitation to the dance as “If you feel like  coming out  tomorrow, I’ll save a dance” and winks;
 * Yang comments on how she’ll be turning heads, yet the only head she turns is Blake’s.
 * Establishes the parallel between Bumblebee and Arkos as their scenes are intertwined, which happens again in V3.

Third, you and the people who bitch about ships like this are the only ones who care more about the sexuality of these characters than the actual show.
