People denying it? It's... canon. Literally, they kiss. and are gay for each other.

Though No. 6 was not without flaws (I feel as though the anime would have been better had it been longer, and the red herrings were disappointing because the actual climax wasn't as interesting, aside from the emotions from Nezumi and Shion, of course), what really impresses me is that it ISN'T a BL anime. It's not considered BL or yaoi, or romance for that matter. Its genres are shounen, action, and sci-fi. But the main characters happen to be gay. That's amazing. And it's not "gay subtext" or "bromance", it's... gay.

I didn't even know there were people who denied it. It's in the open.

all of this. it was flawed and kind of a hot mess at times with lots of plot holes but it gets an A+ for handling its handling of a same-sex relationship in a really classy way.

sadly, yeah, there are lots of bitter homophobes out there who were/are still totally in denial about the romance or dropped the series purely because of that because OH NO, heaven forbid they find gay people in their sci-fi!!! or whatever

shounen isn't a genre, it's a demographic. most of the novel readers are women, and the manga based off it is being published in a shoujo magazine. it's not shounen because it was never marketed at a young male audience.
