The brainwashed adult Yu-no is someone with whom Takuya can debate the logic of the theocracy and the God Emperor’s propaganda. Take this interaction:
“I have been entrusted with this task directly by my liege,” says Yu-no.
“But the previous priestess, Sayless… known as Careless in the capital, has died. You know that, right?”
“…I have received word of this.”
“Alright, next question. They said that the priestess didn’t have a successor. And yet _you_ call yourself the priestess.” Yu-no is silent. “Don’t you think that’s odd?”
“I… have been ordered to by my liege.”
Note the dialogue’s relative sophistication. Stoic, armed, and fearless, Yu-no is able to keep up with a logical argument about how propaganda has caused her to act against her own interests, even if the context still serves a male fantasy of the manly hero owning the priestess with facts and logic. This Yu-no also does not show sexual interest in her father.
However, allegedly free, Yu-no’s personality reverts to that of her twelve-year-old self. Where before she would threaten Takuya rather than accept his flirtations, Yu-no now behaves like the child obsessed with her “papa” but with the sexuality even more overt. Compare the above level of mature political discourse to what the abruptly childish Yu-no can manage less than two hours later. “They’re killing off innocent women solely for their own interests,” says Takuya.
“Yeah… I think that’s a very bad thing too,” says Yu-no.
“Then rather than accepting their handouts, you ought to—”
“But… *sniffle*… but…”
“Ah, wha… i-it’s nothing to start crying over, is it?”
Before Sayless’s death, Yu-no sleeps with her parents, entering their bedroom while hugging a pillow and staring with puppy eyes.
After Takuya has decides to collaborate with the God Emperor, the older Yu-no, sporting a highly sexualized outfit consisting of a thong and a crop top with underboob, appears at the player’s bedside in exactly the same pose, complete with pillow.
This time, Yu-no climbs into bed with Takuya alone. From an angle that displays her full bottom to the player, Yu-no tells Takuya she wants to marry him:
