Adding back in unintentional examples of Ho Yay (including stuff that was likely meant just to show a close friendship). Also adding a warning to the top.

** Then there's the flashback episode where they first meet and Kyoya is going crazy over dealing with Tamaki while trying to act normal. His sister notes that she has never seen Kyoya getting so worked up over someone before. Then at the end when he starts acting normal, it reads like a coming out story.
** In between flashbacks of his relationship with Tamaki, Kyouya is shown painting a flower. The flower becomes a rainbow as he comes to care for Tamaki.
** Tamaki's big decision in the finale of the anime was due to Kyouya's reprimanding him for his frivolty.
* Mori and Honey's subtext tends to be intentional as well, but there are exceptions. Such as the conclusion of "Honey's Three Bitter Days!", explaining Mori's actions in the episode as [[spoiler: being upset about letting Honey get a toothache, he had to punish himself]]. This is played completely seriously, unlike the more obvious moments between them earlier.

I do think this might actually be an accidental example.


** In ''Operation: Hikaru and Haruhi's First Date'' the two share a scene apart from the group that almost seems as though they're parents watching their children. Does the Host Club have a new mommy?

* While the vast majority of HomoeroticSubtext between Kyoya and Tamaki is very intentional, there seems to be at least one accidental example: the end of "And So Kyoya Met Him" when he starts acting normal after realizing how he feels about Tamaki reads like a coming out story. Additionally, in between flashbacks of his relationship with Tamaki, Kyouya is shown painting a flower. The flower becomes a rainbow as he comes to care for Tamaki.

Cutting blatant Homoerotic Subtext. There is no way the Hikaru/Kaoru or Tamaki/Kyoya interactions are accidental by the writer. They\'re not part of the \"act\" In Universe, but it doesn\'t change the author is intentionally playing up the homoerotic undertones.


* While a lot of Hikaru and Kaoru's {{Twincest}} is an act and intentional, some fans would argue there are some undertones even in their non-scripted interactions, such as:
** Hikaru and Kaoru seem to flirt when they aren't serving customers as well. They can be seen holding hands or resting against each other countless times, they share a bed, and apparently used to enjoy scorning the girls that fancied their opposite.
*** Kaoru gives up Haruhi for his brother's happiness.
*** Doesn't help that he gives her up by saying (more or less) "I love you, but Hikaru is more important to me". The next chapter then opens up with Kaoru kissing Hikaru's cheek (same thing he did with Haruhi) "in conmemoration of [his] unrequited love"
*** Oh, and back on the subject of them sharing a bed. When they do Kaoru wears minimal clothing while Hikaru doesn't wear ''anything''.
* Mori and Honey have their moments in the absence of clients as well- See the episode where Honey has a toothache and Mori tackles Honey to a sofa and gets on top of him when looking for the cavity causing the fangirls to {{Squee}} loudly. And Mori's panic when Honey gets lost in Kyouya's family's park.
* This is also what the girls think they're seeing when Kasanoda, who joined the club as a customer, picks Haruhi to be his favorite.
** Speaking of Kasanoda, there's definitely something between him and his servant Tetsuya, at least on Tetsuya's side.
* Haruhi herself has more than enough LesYay with the Lobelia girls. They immediately can tell that she's a girl, despite her wearing the male school uniform, because they saw she had beautiful "maiden eyes." They also tend to be way too touch-feely with her, caress her skin and saying that it is so soft and beautiful, and the leader, Benio, acts gentlemanly towards her, kisses her hand, disregards her personal space, and tries to take her FirstKiss. When it's revealed that she already had her FirstKiss (albeit accidentally) with a girl, Benio tries to take Haruhi's ''second kiss''. It's all enough to make Tamaki jealous and actually yell "Don't be touching my Haruhi without my permission!"
** Plus at the academy Benio goes to she has ''hordes'' of female admirers who have made clubs dedicated to her, follow her around devotedly, and {{Squee}} loudly when she flirts with them.
* Speaking of Kasanoda, there's definitely something between him and his servant Tetsuya, at least on Tetsuya's side.
* There's also some slashy overtones between the leader of the Host Club Tamaki and his best friend and second-in-command Kyoya. Tamaki likes to refer to himself as the "daddy" of the club, and Kyoya as "mommy." There was a scene in the manga where one of them was giving the other a backrub.
** Then there's the flashback episode where they first meet and Kyoya is going crazy over dealing with Tamaki while trying to act normal. His sister notes that she has never seen Kyoya getting so worked up over someone before. Then at the end when he starts acting normal, it reads like a coming out story.
** In between flashbacks of his relationship with Tamaki, Kyouya is shown painting a flower. The flower becomes a rainbow as he comes to care for Tamaki.
** Not to mention the pains Kyouya goes to in order to appease "Daddys" every whim.
** Tamaki's big decision in the finale of the anime was due to Kyouya's reprimanding him for his frivolty.

When it's revealed that she already had her FirstKiss (albeit accidentally) with a girl, Benio tries to take Haruhi's ''second kiss''. It's all enough to make Tamaki jealous and actually yell "Don't be touching my Haruhi without my permission!"

to:

** * This is also what the girls think they're seeing when Kasanoda, who joined the club as a customer, picks Haruhi to be his favorite.
*** ** Speaking of Kasanoda, there's definitely something between him and his servant Tetsuya, at least on Tetsuya's side.
** * Haruhi herself has more than enough LesYay with the Lobelia girls.

It's all enough to make Tamaki jealous and actually yell "Don't be touching my Haruhi without my permission!"



** There's also some slashy overtones between the leader of the Host Club Tamaki and his best friend and second-in-command Kyoya. Tamaki likes to refer to himself as the "daddy" of the club, and Kyoya as "mommy". And there was a scene in the manga where one of them was giving the other a backrub.
*** Then there's the flashback episode where they first meet and Kyoya is going crazy over dealing with Tamaki while trying to act normal. His sister notes that she has never seen Kyoya getting so worked up over someone before. Then at the end when he starts acting normal, it reads like a coming out story.
*** In between flashbacks of his relationship with Tamaki, Kyouya is shown painting a flower. The flower becomes a rainbow as he comes to care for Tamaki.
*** Not to mention the pains Kyouya goes to in order to appease "mommy's" every whim.
*** Tamaki's big decision in the finale of the anime was due to Kyouya's reprimanding him for his frivolty.
*** Even the actors see it -- on the DVD, there's a scene in the outtakes where Kyoya says "What is it... Daddy?" in an almost seductive manner, and [[JMichaelTatum his voice actor]] breaks out of character seconds after saying the line perfectly to splutter and protest ("Really?!").
*** In the January 2011 special, I don't really remember the details, a girl asks Tamaki and Kyouya "Aren't you guys close? Are you homos?".. Kyouya didn't like that.
** There is also Kaoru and Kyoya. When the two had to spend more time together investigating certain things involving certain people's mother, Kaoru once comments something along the lines of being surprised of how cute Kyoya can be, to the other's anger. (sorry, can't find the exact chapter).

Added DiffLines:

** Hikaru and Kaoru seem to flirt when they aren't serving customers as well. They can be seen holding hands or resting against each other countless times, they share a bed, and apparently used to enjoy scorning the girls that fancied their opposite.
*** Kaoru gives up Haruhi for his brother's happiness.
** Mori and Honey have their moments in the absense of clients as well- Honey's toothache? And Mori's panic when Honey gets lost in Kyouya's family's park.

Added DiffLines:

** In ''Operation: Hikaru and Haruhi's First Date'' the two share a scene apart from the group that almost seems as though they're parents watching their children. Does the Host Club have a new mommy?
* Renge unintentionally has this towards Haruhi, but to be fair she doesn't know Haruhi's {{Not Secret}}.
