The bonding plate isn’t covered other than a few seconds in the first episode when Kazuki’s father finds it at the construction site. It is however touched on more in the BESM fan guide, the data file, and more clearly in the DVD line art commentary. It is literally listed as the “bonding plate.” I dug through a lot of the stuff I have, the two guides and even whipped out the translator… didn’t find much to back up the bonding plate. It’s called “the bronze plate” on the line art on DVD 1. I still think I saw somewhere that explained what it was for though. If not, I have to chalk it up to old memories, maybe it was covered in one of the fanfics. I know I’ve been calling it that since around 05 at least.

It’s been more of a long running theory that Masaki Yotsuga brought it home and it “bonded” with Kazuki either in the womb or thereafter (potentially much closer to when his visions started). The rabble in the series itself about Kazuki being a parallel copy of Jinbu is baloney easily determined from examination of Tenchi and Dual facts. As I’ve often said, the characters in Dual are simply stating what they see from their viewpoint without knowing the great galactic role they tie into, as such they are commonly in error.

As far as Asuza’s eye…

That’s evidently an error on the wiki. There’s another citation of the story differently on the FAQ that’s repeated.

As such, Azusa was allowed to proceed to the floor where the 1st-generation trees resided. Only Mitsuki followed him here. She told him everything, then told him to take her as yet unnamed tree. He protested saying he it was hers and that he couldn’t hear the tree’s voice. She told him he was hearing the trees voice even now and revealed that her right eye was in fact made from the sap of the tree and thus the key to the tree.
