They might be soulbound, but like Iwasawa, they must fulfill the things that they have failed to do before dying so that they can move on.

The NPCs might have forgotten about their mission due to the "curriculum" enforced by the "Afterlife Academy" which involves them being restrained to the point that they have little to no drive to move on, and thus, is stuck in the afterlife. That's until SSS came. Because of the Girl Dead Monster, they taught themselves that there are stuff that they can enjoy after all. For some unknown reason though, this does not cause them to urge themselves to find their way out of their "unfinished business".

As for Yuri, she has the most difficult business to fulfill: to defeat God to avenge her sisters. I think Otonashi is there to keep her company throughout the series, as the rest of the SSS solve their own business and cross over. And maybe, he could persuade her that she needs to accept her fate, no matter how bad it was.
