But honestly, the story keeps on deviating from everyone's expectation, from each volume of the manga as things getting into clusterfuck right now.

So far, the story pretty much shows that the person who has the closest bonds to Yuu other than ANY other character is Asuramaru, as stated by the First Progenitor himself that they always been together ever since thousands years ago. And their flashback makes it like their meeting is part of destiny itself, a light of hope for both of them.

The story DOES often implies that Shinoa has romantic interest on Yuu, meanwhile Mika is pretty much crazy dedicated his life to do anything for Yuu, even though it's purely familial and has no romantic motivation at all, considering that vampire is asexual and... well... heartless.

So, the leading character to be the closest to Yuu is Asuramaru, as the latest chapters of the manga shows. The story pretty much focused on their relationship right now. Asuramaru didn’t even cross the mind, even though he literally exists in a persons mind, wow XD

The web like story gets delightfully convoluted now more than ever because no one knows what the heck each other is doing. Best friends have their plans and secrets, said best friends can periodically be influenced by demons. There are vampires fighting alongside army general versus other soldiers all whom have seriously gone all out to outright kill one another. Truly reviled enemies are peoples allies, someone’s cursed gear that has served them faithfully is actually a founder of all vampires with one heck of a demented streak.

And that is all before we start on possible romantic relationships between the characters!

Literally the closest bond yes, both from the past and on account of the whole trying to possess you thing. People can make romantic ties however they want in a series that isn’t really out for romantic walks in the park. I guess it’s not the point to state that Yu and Asuramaru do have a unique bond but one solely tied in being a part of some very specialised experiences. How many other people can say they have a centuries old, I live as a spirit within your mind kind of relationship, who are directly involved in recent happenings in the plot?

Sure, Yu may literally end up with Asuramaru by being possessed by him for the demon to reign free. Not exactly riding a horse into the sunset, but alarmingly Asuramaru is the most plausible “who will Yu end up with” type, just not in the way anyone would expect. Also hope those are not famous last words XD

Shinoa is involved, it’s just not reciprocated with Yu who has other matters he is thinking of. Regarding Mika, would not consider romantic motivations out the picture at all. Vampires like Mika who have transformed can retain their feelings to certain people. Krul done it with Ashera, Mika even feels though his feelings are fading those concerning Yu remain exactly the same. Mika is very switched on, and going to those lengths to defend someone goes beyond family ties.

Still, if you feel Asuramaru is closest to Yu, and it is a convincing case you are right that we are awaiting the latest chapters. Asuramaru getting his memories back is the leading scene! Plus how they knew one another and what it means going forward will also be something to see.

I bet maybe a kiss, or he might have to sleep with her... I don't know. My heart is broken, I just give up. Do not mean to burst you bubble further… in some way XD but Yu may be prevented further from rescuing Shinoa having been kidnapped himself. Best hope Mitsuba can rescue him to rescue Shinoa. Then again someone, anyone needs to rescue Mika, Guren, Kureto and Shinya who are confronted by a multiple scythe carrying Shinoa! Oh! Also how could we overlook that vampire progenitors are on their way, and who could forget Saito making a formal declaration of war.
