Mika claims to accept something very of import to say to Yu, but Yu says he won't heed until Mika agrees to drink his blood so he can live. This is of import, because although Yu claims to detest all vampires, he begs Mika to become a vampire to save his life. This shows how much Yu cares about Mika. So, Yu cut his arm, trying to tempt Mika to drinkable his blood. Mika tries to resist but eventually bites his neck, which does non seem to hurt Yu (the official fanbook has confirmed that when a vampire bites a human, both experience practiced). Yu then tells him, "Welcome back, Mika". After returning to full wellness, Mika claims that he would never use Yu, but he replies that although he said so he drank his claret, but immediately after caresses his cheek and say that he doesn't care nearly the blood.

Yu, however, tells Mika that a peaceful identify in their globe does not exist and that if they wanted to escape, they should start inquire his teammates for assist. When Mika agrees to save Shinoa's squad, Yu is happy and hugs him, and the two go hand in hand while on the way to go assistance Shinoa'southward squad.

He knows that Yu would hate him if he did only he doesn't intendance, anyway whenever Mika gets too threatening towards Guren Yu stops him. When they are lonely Yu asks Mika if his heart is chirapsia, Mika tells him that he could find out for himself, then Yu puts a paw on his chest and is surprised that it doesn't beat. Since Yu is not totally human, he tells Mika that he volition detect a way to make them both human, but Mika is doubtful most that.

In chapter 86, while on the run from Guren and his demons, Yu is addressed by Mahiru, who asks him if he's found a new reason to live. He contemplates, remembering that moment, and takes Mika's hand, telling Mahiru and Mika, "I have a reason to live. I have yous, Mika." Mika is happy to hear Yu call him that. After, Mika is wounded in the fight between Guren, Mahiru, and Noya. Yu picks upwards Mika and tells him to potable his blood, Mika does it and Yuu says it feels strangely skillful to have his blood sucked.

In chapter 89 of the manga, Mika suffers a grave injury protecting Yu from Guren. Mika tells Yu to not worry, and that he would keep Yu safe. In chapter xc, as Mika is dying in Yu's artillery, Yu is desperate to go along Mika alive, saying "Everyone!! God! The Devil! I don't care who it is! You tin fifty-fifty kill me! Just salve Mika!". He is then transported into his subconsciousness, where Asuramaru is. Asuramaru asks Yu what he wants because demons are supposed to help grant their human'due south deepest desires. Yu responds, saying how he doesn't want to be alone, and that he wishes that he could disappear considering he feels useless. He asks Asuramaru to kill him. Asuramaru says, "From the start, y'all couldn't notice a reason to live. You smiled and laughed, but it was empty. If someone wasn't right there, telling y'all they liked you, you simply didn't know why you should exist. But that someone always dies. Now you tin can't go on living anymore". Asuramaru reminds Yu that Mika loved him, even to the point of giving his life for him to protect him, Asuramaru to refer to Mika'southward love for Yu uses the Japanese word "aishiteru", which is used to bespeak a very strong dear. Asuramaru forces Yu to wait at Mika, to watch him die and so that he has a reason to continue living. Mika sees Yu crying and tries to tell him non to cry. Yu screams to him, "Don't go out me! I don't want to exist solitary!", implying that he feels alone without Mika despite having other friends. With his terminal breath, Mika says, "Yu... I dearest you," using the Japanese words, "daisuki da yo" which is usually only used in a romantic context. Yu screams out his name, reaching out to him, but Mika explodes.

In affiliate 93, Mika is in a world where all the orphanage kids are live and everyone is still immature. While getting fix for bed, A twelve-yr-old dream Yu takes Mika's easily, telling him he doesn't have to be scared, and that Yu will always be there. He comforts Mika'south guilt of not being able to protect everyone, saying, "That's fine. We'll still exist together. For a chiliad years. 10 thousand years. No...forever". Mika realizes that it is a dream, and tells dream Yu that. Dream Yu tells Mika to accept that this is his greatest desire. Dream Yu tells Mika that if he stays here, his greatest desire could be possible, and he could stay with Yu forever. Mika gives in, and wings sprout from his back.

In Chapter 94, Yu tries to salve Mika, who seems to at present be a demon but is stopped past Krul. She explains to him that Mika tin exist saved merely if Yu approaches Mika at present he will kill him. Yu then is happy and asks Mika to look for him, promises him that he volition save him and that no affair what office of the world he would exist in, Yu would observe him and save him. In affiliate 96, Yu has a flashback. In his flashback, he tells Guren, "I swear I'thou gonna impale all the vampires, because they killed MIka!", which shows how his motivation for wanting revenge was because of Mika. Then, Krul has a flashback of her training Mika. In that flashback, she asks Mika in her head, "Exercise you want to save Yu that badly? Is your mind so full of thoughts of him... that it drives yous to this insanity?". In the nowadays time, Yu asks Krul to tell him how to relieve Mika. In the English language translation, Krul then says to Yu, "If you actually want to rescue Mikaela that badly, then prove it. Stop fooling around and prove me that you truly, sincerely desire it." She so thinks in her caput, "Otherwise, information technology wouldn't be off-white for what he went through". However, the meaning of the Italian translation (that is besides directly translated from Japanese) is closer to "Otherwise, the boy's feelings volition not be reciprocated". Hearing that, Yu bows to her and begs her to tell him how to save Mika, telling her that he values Mika'south life more than his own. Afterward he tells Krul this, Krul thinks "Ahh. Aye... He has it only as badly", indicating how his feelings for Mika are as strong as Mika's feelings for him.

In chapter 101 Asuramaru enters the illusionary world of Mika and forces him to impale his family while Mika continues to apologize saying that it is all his fault since his "greatest desire" was to be blamed for their deaths. At one point, in desperation, he screams out Yu's name asking for help (even though demons supposedly lose their memories afterwards transformation). Yu hears Mika's call for him, and tells his teammates that Mika is in danger and he must immediately go to rescue him, going as far as to say that he will "run over" everyone who get in his fashion. Although Mika seems to keep his memories for at present, Guren reminds Yu that Mika is at present a demon and if he tin go the upper hand over Yu, he could posses him. Yu retorts that this way Mika could continue living, merely Guren replies that Mika would never want to alive if it meant killing Yu, aforementioned way Yu couldn't alive if Mika died. He understands what Guren ways and after informing the others, goes to salvage Mika. An interesting thing to note hither is that when Yu is about to leave, Shinoa says she'll cry if Yu died. This is a direct parallel to Yu saying he'll cry if Mika dies in chapter 36. Since Shinoa'southward feelings for Yu are blatantly romantic, the parallel shows that Yu's feelings for Mika have romantic undertones equally well. One time Yu enters the dream in which Mika is stuck, he finds Asuramaru - forth with the other demons - and asks him "What're you lot picking on my Mika for? Want me to kill you?" (note the use of "my"). Soon after, he injures the demon, and yells at Mika that he'southward here to save him.

In chapter 102 Yu reaches Mikaela and tells him that he has come to save him, simply before Yu can have him he is taken away by the other two demons and while Asuramaru tries to posses Yu. In one of the dialogues with Asuramaru, he says that his principal want is to salve Mika, to which Asuramaru replies that this is a lie and he has another desire. Immediately Asuramaru says that this desire is related to Mika, he asks Yu why he is so fixated on Mika and what desire he has that drives him exist then fixated on Mika. Only Yu doesn't answer that question. Later defeating all the demons Yu approaches Mikaela (who continues to weep, merely does non attack him) and tells him that fifty-fifty if the world ends tomorrow, he will still save him.

In chapter 103 Yu wakes up in the place where Mika "come back to him", that is, in the store where Mika became a consummate vampire. When they see Mika asks Yu why he knows his name, and then Yu says that Mika must remember him if he chose a place similar this (the shop). Mika keep maxim to not recollect him, but he says that he is a demon and therefore he must posses Yu. At this bespeak Yu remembers the Guren's words in chapter 101 and tells Mika that if he did such a thing he would surely cry later, and so he won't let him do information technology and he will subdue him. Soon after, the 2 being to fight. After combat Mika sees a coliseum circling their location. Many dark orbs are in the air and Mikaela wonders if this is inside his center, or Yu's, and who exactly he is.

In affiliate 104, Mika and Yuu fight each other. At 1 bespeak, Yuu recalls a dialogue with Guren, who says that the only style to salvage Mika is to attack him, otherwise Shikama Doji will find him and the plan volition fail. Because of these words, Yuu says that he will break Mika's middle, although he doesn't desire to practice it, Mika attacks faster. Mika sees in Yuu's heart his greatest fear: the death of his entire family. Mika remembers that his name is Yuu-chan and that he wants to salve him, but Yuu attacks him back. Yuu sees the same fears in Mika's heart. Yuu concludes that he and Mika share a common fear and dream. Mika calls Yuichiro "Yuu-chan" and Yuu thinks Mika remembered him, but this turns out to exist wrong. Yuu says he will save Mika and brand him a man, but Mika too decides to salvage Yuu. They speak in unison virtually their want to save each other. They fight again, but Mika is faster and he cuts off Yuu'southward caput. He enters Yuu'southward eye and takes the form of what Yuu desires most. Mika becomes a version of himself, merely as a xvi year onetime human. In Yuu's heart, there is only darkness and Mika who glows, as well as a strange eye that is watching Mika. This shows that in that location is merely darkness in Yuu'south middle, but Mika is the just 1 there. Yuu'southward greatest desire information technology'due south Mika, which he himself is watching. Apart from this, there are also many parallels in the chapter with past chapters. For example, when Yuu and Mika talk about their desire to save each other in unison, it parallels Chapter 15, where they also promised to save each other. The encompass of the chapter that Yuu give hands to Mika as a child is a parallel to the retention where Mika requite hands to Yuu equally a child. The moment Yuu pierces Mika with his sword is like to the moment from the cease of Chapter 12 when they rejoined.

Fanon

Yuichiro's name is but spelled with one u, and his nickname in the English translation of the manga follows this blueprint (Yu); however the ship proper name uses Yuu (ゆう), the Japanese Hiragana spelling of his nick name.

There is a small amount of fan resistance to the pairing, due to both boys being placed in the same orphanage and staying in the same family unit unit. Withal, Yu spent the least amount of fourth dimension every bit a member of the Hyakuya unit, arriving at the orphanage the mean solar day of the vampire attack, which meant he only stayed with Mika in the orphanage for mere hours. After that, they only stayed together for 4 years until the escape from Sanguinem. Before she died, Akane, another member of the Hyakuya orphanage, has been stated to have a crush on Mika in the light novels, so that proves how members of the Hyakuya orphanage don't think of each other equally literal blood-related family unit.

Those against the ship also claim that they think of each other every bit brothers, only this is not true, as information technology was never stated anywhere in the manga, anime, nor the light novels that they retrieve of each other as brothers. Although they phone call each other family, Yu also calls just about everyone he knows "family". Also, in Guren's squad, they also call each other family, and almost everyone in Guren'southward squad has a beat on Guren, which also shows that calling other family doesn't mean that you call back of them equally literal blood-related family.

On AO3, MikaYuu is the most written ship in the Owari No Seraph/Seraph of the End tag. It is Mikaela'south most written send likewise as Yuichiro'south. The ship also has over 2000 works on its Pixiv tag.
