^ apprentice diary user state shpuld be explained in next few episodes, IMHO despite the lame concept/plot-patch, it worked out fine in the manga.
As for Yukiteru, finally growing balls... well, he was drugged and chained in a chair looking at Yuno (OK, not the worst sight out there for her age), but if he was not pissed off by that alone, he would gain the award of the most
herbivorous male ever
in anime at least
In the end, Yuno is not that hard to deal with (
meta-analyzing), she is
just manic-obsessive, people with worst mental derangement
s have run whole countries, and I am pretty sure all of us have dealt with way worse IRL
