Wonderful analysis scholar. I have some additional factoids to fill it in.
Aging Arc: Asa wants to hold hands with a boy to feel the slightest human touch.
Denji:
>Snaps back at her and yells at her like she's some piece of garbage, pulls his hand away from hers
Yoshida:
>Bruce Lee's her little paws into a cool hand-shake, holds her hand and smiles at her lovingly, apologizes to her, thanks her for being such a forgiving girl, tells her a story about bears, she accepts the hand-holding and does not pull her hand out once, instead she relaxes her hand and intertwines her fingers in his
Current Arc: Asa tries to kill herself.
Denji:
>Raises an eyebrow and tells her to go ahead and kill herself, just not to point that shit at him. Mere seconds later tries to kill her in cold blood with her own cuck-chair.
Yoshida:
>Will grab her hand to stop her suicide attempt and pull her in for a hug, wipe the tears off her face and tell her she should live and he'll be her boyfriend is she turns Denji into a weapon. The much needed human touch a girl needs in her most vulnerable moment.
Not hard to see the direction the story's taking, especially now that Shi explained how Yoru's going after devil hunters. She might do a PochitaxKobeni date with Yoshida as she drags him naked by the balls on a forced date because he rejected her at the start of the story. Asa takes over eventually and they bond over their shared trauma of being sexually assaulted against their will.
