Everybody is angry with Kouichi and Mei at that point. not just the girls. I mean, Mei and Yukito had never exchanged words the entire series yet his immediate reaction to hearing Takako's broadcast was to go grab a mop and try to whack Mei in the face with it. Also keep in mind, Takako's sole defining characteristic in the novel is her loyalty to Izumi, even it's clearly not pragmatic; Kouichi has an unfavorable impression of her for that very reason. This is just staying true to her character.
