Atarashii Joushi wa Do Tennen placed 13th in the Female Readers' Top 20 of 2020's Kono Manga ga Sugoi! ranking.

Synopsis
Momose, a 26-year-old office worker, recently changed jobs after being harassed by his former boss. He is concerned that his new boss will also use power harassment to make his life miserable. Momose tries to hide his concern about facing a similar situation with his new boss, Shirasaki. To Momose's surprise, however, Shirasaki's inherent airheadedness immediately alleviates all of his concerns, giving him a sense of relief.

Yes, simply light hints, nothing more. If one wants full themed BL works, then they have to read BL works with shonen-ai and yaoi genres in them.

Well, I won't be surprised if many in the target audience already consider these guys if not married to each other, then at least a full-fledged couple, lol.

You are right here, yes. How much one's fantasy can imagine...

I ask because the Western word "hint" suggests something tangible, but people overuse it so much that even the most superficial ship bait would be called a hint.

By hints do you mean explicit hints or just teasing the audience without a "real" result?

It is not a BL work, but there are hints to it as in any work targeted to women.

Yes, I know it, thanks, I also replied in a funny manner.

For y'all getting an aneurysm over this, no it's not BL. If it was it would've been tagged as such right at the start next to the other genres.

It was a dumb rhetorical question, no one assaults anyone in this work.

A1 Picture x Aniplex is bad combo we already saw what happened to NieR:Automata Ver1.1a

Anyway I am not interested in gay anime either so it's an easy skip for me 🤪

And I hope that Nier will resume airing soon.

Ok, it is your choice anyway.

I think that Momose, the brown-haired, assaults Shirosaki, blond-haired, judging from the BL works that I read and overall statistics of authors of such works.
