There's also Ferid from the same series....but I think...idk he is just weird. xD Might do anything. Lmao Agreed. I also feel like a lot of flamboyant villains, especially in older anime, are coded as Predatory Gays. Ferid from OnS and Hisoka from HxH gave me strong pedophilic gay man vibes, even though of course the shows never mention them actually being that. No other ones immediately come to mind but there are a LOT. There's also a few crossdressing/magical gender transformation characters that give off transgender vibes (I'm thinking of Haruhi from OHSHC, Alluka from HxH, the main character from Boku Girl) who are never explicitly stated to be trans but nevertheless stand out from other characters in the same trope. I genuinely thought the MC from Showa Genroku was going to turn out to be gay and was waiting for the reveal late into the season but it never happened. Haikyuu!! being gay though is beyond me; I personally didn't pick up on anything even a little. |

If talking about sports -beside Free and YoI- KnB and Tenipuri is gayer. At least both have canon gay characters in it. |

The scene where Ferid bites down on SHOTA Mika's neck in Yuu's nightmare was....uncomfortable to say the least. xD it almost felt like rape. I used to hate the guy but once I got deeper into the manga...my only reaction to him now is laughter. He's just so goofy and random...and everyone else seems incredibly annoyed when they are forced to interact with him like "oh great...THIS asshole again..."...that makes it better. xD |

These two in Ajin.. Kei Nagai & Kaito |
| Ymir from Attack on Titan comes to mind. |

This show suffers from.. what'cha call it.. a shipping frenzy I guess? I could not discern any of the main or supporting characters being implicitly gay. I just didn't pick up on any subtext that would make that particularly clear. Oh, but there is some (questionable) trans representation in the later seasons.. (scraps, basically) That's it. That's the show. |
OweynLupton said:
As much as I want to say yes to all these points, I must disagree ; w ; - I haven't found any characters that are hinted at being gay in BnHA. - Everything in Free is only bait at best. (I've only watched till S2) - As much as how gay I think the whole light and shadow thingy is, and Kise idolization of Aomine is, but nope, Kurobas also only baity at best. Except, Mibuchi Reo. - OnS is full of bait............. but I must say, Mika, Shinya and maybe Ferid is kinda gay-ish. But I still have my doubts. Shinya is the gayest, what with all his flirting with Guren in the LN... |

Disagree on Yuu. Although I’m not sure it’s really been hinted at, it also wouldn’t be far-fetched to say that his feelings for Mika are mutual. He also doesn’t seem to show much interest in female characters and there is a scene or two even in the less baity manga that imply that he enjoys Mika drinking his blood...a lot. |
|
gumrats said: He also doesn’t seem to show much interest in female characters I must protest with how he reacts to Shinoa in her uniform for the first time. :D Then he goes tsundere cause she's milking it. xD but he was staring at her for a bit... |

| Dio from Last Exile is the gayest "implicitly gay" character I've ever seen. |
| Who are you and why do you show your hostility towards a complete stranger whom you've not once spoken with before. Are you seriously asking to get blocked? Well, if that's what your intent is; to tempt me into throwing hands with someone as lowly and insignificant as you, then i may grant your wish provided you articulate yourself a bit better when trying to spite a person of my wavelength. |
| Some answers here are pretty puzzling. Ymir? Shinji and Kaworu? Did anyone say No.6 yet lol? Maybe they should ram each other on screen, but I'm starting to wonder even that may not be enough. Anyway, I would say Haiji and Kakeru from Running with the Wind. This is an interesting case given apparently the original draft of the story was straight up a BL with the main characters dating (https://bookmeter.com/books/561855), and the author was forced to change many things once the story got published (Including an hamfisted love quadrangle that goes nowhere with the main character "losing" and getting over it, the kind of thing that Otaku scream NTR at). The anime curiosity removes this element completely for a more romantic reading of the relationship between the two leads. The original author was pretty happy and impressed with this adaptation. |

Chiibi said: Yeah I agree.^idk man...smiling is one thing but iif a character is blushing ALL the time in the presence of another....I too would call that "very gay". xD I haven't seen Yuru Camp though so I can't say for sure. Oh and I've gotten crap for this before but Mitsuba from Hanako-kun seems rather LGBT. From his design to his voice to his behavior. I think he's very girly and has a crush on Kou. xD Secretly taking photo of another boy? THAT IS SO GAY. lmao I also felt like Mugen from Samurai Champloo emitted some serious bi vibes but that could be just me... Also the cast of Ouran Host Club – but I think they were made official..? Then there's Fuuma and Kamuy from CLAMP's X/1999 manga. I mean some of the scenes were VERY gay but unlike Subaru I don't think they were actually confirmed. This is CLAMP we're talking about though. And Killua is gay for Gon, you can't convince me otherwise. |

And I'm kinda happy to know about "Running with the Wind", because I already have the anime in the "plan to watch" list, but now you gave me another reason to started it. |

It would be a shame and this is my only fear cause, you know Seraph is in a weird place because it still runs on a shounen magazine so I can't imagine editors and such would allow the author to go all the way even if he wanted it, though looking at the actual catalogue the magazine appears to have quite a lot of odd stuff. |

What I personally hate about OnS is that I'm being queerbaiting af, but I "hate" myself more for still have hope about something canonically gay. 😎 |

| What will Tanya grow up to be???? That makes me wonder |
 |
| Probably Shinji from NGE I mean, it clearly showed us that he took a bath with Kaworu and got depressed after killing him(ew) I wanted to say Kaworu himself but he's the vessel for Adam...angels are asexual |

metropyramid said: I'm surprised no one has said Konata Izumi from Lucky Star. Konata actually strikes me as straight since she's the only one lamenting about "No romance for us" and whenever Kagami and Tsukasa have a "yuri twins' moment', Konata says "It's not exciting to watch two girls act this way." Lol |

Kurarion said: I'm surprised no one has mentioned Ryo and Akira from Devilman Crybaby yet. Oh yeah, Miki as well, but it could just be my imagination. Ryo is canonically into Akira, but I think Akira is straight. I almost forgot: Griffith from Berserk can be considered as an hinted LGBT character (I think?) |
| I have to say Mista and Giorno. Both are very gay but not confirmed gay |

lol it's fine. I don't any problem with it, Kaze is a fantastic anime because the cast and the characters, I don't think anyone watched it for the romance initially despite the author's self professed love for BL. The evolution of the two leads is incredible because the place they start at and the one they end up, as well them ultimately finding the meaning of running into each other, which ties to the story's main theme. The anime writers choosing to pay homage to Shion Miura's original vision and her interests was just a "bonus", though it ended up making the anime's final moments way more powerful. |

| Half of every girl in every Kyoto animation show, all idols ever. As for more expecific ones: Papika, Cocona and Yayaka; Satsuki and Jakuzure; and maybe Mako is bi as the ending makes sure tha Mako is okay with Gamagori and he will even ask her out but Mako was always nose bleding for Ryouko. Yeah, I guess I have a preference for Lesbian represetation over gay represetation... |

| There's an implicit romantic bond between Marlya & Veronica in Fairy Gone, but other then that it's a fairly straight take for a show about fairies. |
horridhendy said: juiccbox said: If this counts, shinji and kaworu from Evangelion. It’s pretty implied in the anime but the manga makes kaworu a lot more explicitly gay if I remember correctly. You are indeed, very much correct. It's basically canon in the manga, proof: and even more proof, volume 10, stage 67, page 99 (someone has coloured this): I agree they are gay, but the first one was when Shinji was having a panic attack or something? (maybe almost drowned) and needed cpr, thats why he was blushing a lot. but obviously this is them playing coy 😌 |

| How the hell are Shinji and Kaworu hinted, they literally confess on screen lol. Even the official material always referred to Kaworu as "Shinji's same sex love interest". I look forward the day some anime will have on screen butt-sex and people will still find a way to no homo it. |
|
| the entire cast of K-On. There isn't a single part of that show that is heterosexual |
| I said with a posed look |
| Toga from Mha was hinted to be bi because she loves both Deku and Uraraka but from character information in the Manga it said that she loves anything regardless of gender so I think that she is just weird. |

I liked that anime regardless of this fact but now i feel like re-watching it. |
Bloomberry said: Love Lab. There is so much female tension between everyone. lol there's barely any 'hints' of anyone being at the most bi. The only plausible hints would be when Maki dresses up as Makino and everyone gets embarrassed, but that's heavily played as nothing more than just a gag :P each of the girls have their own love interests anyway: Riko --> Nagi Maki --> Yan Sayori --> already has a bf Yuiko --> don't think the anime reached it yet but student council president Suzune --> Rentarou it's pretty much this xd Nurguburu said: Also, ppl should difference friendship, blushing and feeling romantically attracted. if anything Love Lab is one of the few CGDCT shows that seldom have yuri bait and actually have hetero pairs |
