خلفية ثقافية
The concept of 'Asobi' (play) is seen as a necessary part of social health. In Japanese gardens, 'asobi' can refer to the intentional empty space that allows the design to 'breathe.' While 'asobu' is for fun, the 'Nomikai' (drinking party) is a hybrid of 'asobu' and work. It's where colleagues 'play' together to build 'team spirit.' Younger Japanese people often use 'Asobu' to mean specifically going to 'Purikura' (photo booths) or 'Karaoke.' With the rise of VTubers and social gaming, 'asobu' increasingly happens in virtual spaces, yet the phrase remains unchanged.

No, it's too casual. Use '{食事|しょくじ}に{行|い}く' (go for a meal) or '{親睦|しんぼく}を{深|ふか}める' (deepen ties).
'Au' just means to meet. 'Asobu' implies you are doing something fun together for a period of time.
Not necessarily, but if you 'asobu' alone with someone of the opposite sex, people might ask if it's a date.
