I think my main problem is that there's no confirmed feelings from Yuu's side. He sees everyone of his squad as family and doesn't even think about romance or dating at all. Would be weird if he suddenly showed interested in these things. Yeah, Shikama Doji really is an issue. The way he always points out her feelings to the reader makes it look rather forced, especially because of that whole "you'll meet your destiny in eight years" from the LN + the fact that he knows Yuu from about a thousand years ago. It seems rather set up and makes it look like that if Yuu//Noa really does become canon, none of them really had a choice and fell for each other because of Shikama Doji and not because it just happened to be the other one they fell for.

I also think it's not good for Shinoa's character. She was such a sass queen at the beginning and teasing everyone of her squad and lately, all that defines her is her crush on Yuu. That makes her a little bit less interesting for me.

Yeah, it's really simple-minded. But people really treat Yuu//Na as the ultimate endgame who have lots of children in the end. Especially after ch. 66. It's probably because main male character x main female character + the statement that shounen usually only need the female character to admit that she's in love and BAM canon.

As for me, it's either MikaYuu or an open ending. The latter would fit the family theme of the overall story. I never understood the sudden fous on romance anyway. The story could really live without it so far.
