Oh, actually, this is really exciting.
There are some interesting parallels between Yuji and the white dog (Shiro)
_ They both died on the same day
_ They are friendly
_ Both are trustworthy
_ Megumi was very attached to Shiro
In most mythologies, the white wolf symbolizes protection, intelligence, sociability and compassion, being the antagonistic part of the black wolf.
Yuji is also associated with the white tiger of Byakko, the protector of the western cardinal point (I talked about it in this post), which ended up becoming his nickname at his old school.
The curious point is that one of Megumi's Shikigami is also a tiger that has not yet been shown, which makes him doubly linked to Yuji. It's interesting for me to see how Megumi and Yuji complement each other, whether it's Megumi being the duo's strategist and Yuji the muscles, Yuji being a melee fighter while Megumi is better at long distances. Black and white, like yin yan.
I wonder if the wolf thing was intentional or just an aesthetic choice, although I doubt Gege would approve of something like that if it wasn't to create parallels. This man likes to pair manga with anime.
Overall, I'm just rambling on about these.
After the last chapter, I'm getting impatient with the manga and Gege Akutami.

Tiny bit messy because my marker died half way but I tried to sqeeze out the last bits out of it.
