Really in the end if Yuu were to endter a relationship it would come down to two options:

Mika:

Mika and Yuu definitely have a very special bond. As of now their relationship is platonic but Mika most likely has feelings for Yuu. When Mika told Yuu he loved him he used Daisuki which can be used for friends but can also be used as a confession. The latter however is the more likely the case.

Shinoa:

Yuunoa is the second most most popular ship for Yuu. Shinoa and Yuu think of each other as close family. Shinoa is arguably the closest friend to Yuu in their squad. Shinoa has a crush on Yuu which Yuu is completely oblivious of.

Personally I don't think Yuu will end up with either of them. If Kagami took the Yuunoa route he would piss a good chunk of the fanbase. If Kagami took the Mikayuu route he would risk losing popularity in Japan since Japan is still a kinda homophobic country. The smartest and safest way would be to satisfy both sides by making the ending ambiguous. Let the fans decide for themselves. In the end I only worry about Kagami's safety. I would love Yuunoa but you can't please everybody.

In the end it's up to Yuu.

It might be Shinoa, not because she is the main lead or a girl, but she has been there when Yuu tends to lose himself, for a reason. Yuu is a prince and Shinoa a knight. Yuu's the cute one Shinoa's the cool one. I feel like their relationship is like Mahiru and Guren's but healthier.

The ending would have been more of a sure one if Shinoa did not have feelings for Yuu at all. But her feelings will play a role. They helped her saved Mika but it also caused her to lose control of her demon to the point of possession and is powerful in that form.

She's always watching over Yuu. At first it was her mission to do so but now she risk her life for it when she doesn't have to. What made her fall for Yuu? His child like innocence, compassion, and heart of shivalry? Shinoa loves to tease him. But how was Shinoa before was she dead inside, trying to find her purpose? Does Yuu give her the purpose she longs for?

She's in love with him undeniably. She couldn't stand for yuu to hate her.

I at least think she'll be able to confess her feelings. If Yuunoa doesn't end up with either.

Also kagami did Mika dirty having him float in the air where Mika can't hear him. But it might have been intentional because the dude said it twice and yelled it and had Asheramaru explain things instead of Yuu hearing a single peep.
