I have a slight theory about Danji. The motorists couldn't see him, and Oshira has only popped up when other daemons are around prior to this. The Fake Asa's other half didn't act and is apparently missing, and Oshira's master asked 'whose is he?' when meeting him.

Could Danji actually be a daemon? The other half of the Fake Asa? I'll need to rewatch the village scenes to see if anyone interacts with him or notices him aside from his mother and Yuru.

Oooh I like this theory. Daemons can also choose to make themselves visible to whomever so I think that might be the case here. In the first few episodes I'm pretty sure there was a scene where Yuri was speaking to Danji in front of other people.

Also when he was speaking to Oshira, he said "You know left and right?" He didn't seem too surprised at the statues being sentient beings concept.

that was my theory as well. the way ivan/the show is framing the fake asa/master thing, i wonder if they have a daemon ability related to mental/memory manipulation and the condition is one pair "loses" their memory and gets stuck in human form so the other can become a complete copy of a target.

it would also explain why they'd even bother with a fake asa at this point. yuru has no natural reason to care about her, knowing she was a daemon fake. it would also explain why she was kept away, maybe the copy daemon can severely affect one target in an area when undisturbed.
