Hm I'll take two stances. One as a shipper and the other as a reader and how the story goes so far.

As a shipper I do believe Yu and Shinoa will end up together. Some will say it's forced but being honest, it's not. Why do I say that? Well, Kagami did point out that there would be no romance but, that doesn't mean love or special interactions wouldn't exist. Simple, Yu and Shinoa shared moments together in certain chapters. Yu doesn't need to investigate like a detective in order to find out something's not okay with Shinoa ( yes, facial expressions or more serious attitude); Yu treasures Shinoa deeply, yes just like the squad but there's a high difference. Yu knows Shinoa is a kind hearted person even if she doesn't express her real self. He worries about her and can tell that being the squad leader is more pressure than anything else.

On the other side, Shinoa is selfless, she doesn't prioritize her desires and so on, instead, she focuses on Yu's well being which is something we saw in chapter 74...but sadly those actions lead to worst.

Now, as a reader, I do not expect Yu to have a happy ending or so...the story is turning grim by each chapter unless the new one gives a small ray of hope. I expect mayor character dead to be honest. And this is just because Kagami did express something grim on twitter. Who knows if it might change the story or not. Yu is a kid that is gradually maturing. For now he wants to save Shinoa badly because the situation is critical and because she is important to him (she was the first to accept to rescue Mika or get Mika back, the first to trust Mika, and so on)

I really wish the story got a nice ending but who knows
