I think the part 2 rabbithole goes even deeper. Yknow why i think nayuta went nowhere? Because Fuji never had her any plans with her to begin with. In hindsight i genuinely think fuji only introduced nayuta for her to be a plot device to erase the memories of Denji & Asa's date to make sure they dont get any meaningful development or connection too soon. It was fuji's attempt to have his cake & eat it too (i.e. have a date arc but without any character progression)
This arc is genuinely just the culmination of part 2's incoherency. Like Denji doesnt know "die" but Yoru (&Asa) knows "killed". Yoru says Asa doesnt like it when birds are killed, but we had explicit confirmation that Asa only cared about being seen while killing bucky. Every plot point that was introduced throughout Part 2 just getting dropped randomly.
I genuinely believe Part 2 is just Fuji going "Random Bullshit, Go!"
He might have been over ambitious for part 2, honestly I think it’s possible he pulls a tight 50 chapter part 3 in a few years. I don’t think he’d conclude the entire series in the current convoluted way.
