* ''Manga/DrStone'' has Dr. Xeno and Stanley Snyder. The two are shown to [[EvenEvilHasLovedOnes care about each other very much]], and at one point, Stanley is seen caressing Xeno's face and lips in a way that certainly does not look platonic. However, their sexual orientation is not really touched upon.

** Pokemon themselves are no exception to this. Meowth has an intense relationship with Team Rocket's target Pikachu, has had homoerotic fantasy spots about Giovanni, and has fallen for James on one occasion (due to mood-altering Shuckle juice). Ash's Oshawott has the same sort of adoration towards Ash as Chikorita, Aipom, and Gliscor had; the former two of them are confirmed to be female and in love with Ash at one point.

* Everyone in ''Anime/{{Gankutsuou}}'', except Eugenie Danglars who is unambiguously straight. Extremely ironic, considering that she is as unambiguously lesbian in the original novel as 19th century literature could hint.

* Mikoto in ''Anime/{{K}}'' was very close to Totsuka, to the point [[spoiler: he became a DeathSeeker upon his death]], but it's uncertain how close they were - i.e. if it was romantic in tone - before Totsuka's death. Extra materials don't exactly paint a clearer picture though it does bring in more questionable moments between them. Some fans also ship Izumo/Mikoto/Tosuka as an {{OT3}}, given the trio's relationship pre-HOMRA. On top of all of this, there is his relationship with Munakata which reeks of subtext. Gora's writer Blue also [[http://dijeh.tumblr.com/post/67572207415/goras-new-tweets-werent-only-about-the-new-manga tweeted]] that Totsuka and Mikoto had a "special relationship" that was kept a secret because otherwise it would be considered "unmanly" in their gang. One of the most damning moments comes from the prequel manga ''K: Memory of Red'' however, in which Izumo relates to Seri a story from his high school days. Totsuka brought Izumo and Mikoto to a window a female teacher was changing in front of so they could peep on her, and when she turned around, Izumo and Totsuka ducked down to hide— but not Mikoto. Instead, he [[https://i.imgur.com/HA38Smx.jpg kept staring ahead at the woman]] with a [[BlankStare completely blank expression]] on his face, displaying [[NotDistractedByTheSexy absolutely no reaction]] to the sight (other than [[DullSurprise greeting her with a flat, "Hey."]]).

** Ryuunosuke Fujinami is...''complicated'', to put it mildly. RaisedAsTheOppositeGender by a [[AbusiveParents psychotic, physically violent father]] who WantedASonInstead so badly he became a delusional abuser, the clearest thing one can say about Ryuunosuke is that she knows she's a girl, she identifies herself as a girl, and she wants to act more feminine, but she doesn't know where to start. She reacts with violence when guys like [[LoveableSexManiac Ataru and Mendou]] get grabby, but then, so do the straight girls in this series. When she first meets Mendou, she shuts down his request she become his girlfriend by punching him and insisting she has no interest in boys, then later insists to Shinobu that she's straight. She's gone on dates with both Ran and Shinobu, but in both cases she did so for an ulterior motive -- to study femininity from [[{{Kawaiiko}} Ran]], and to be paid off with a bra with Shinobu. She tried to kiss Shinobu when she was told that this would earn her the bra she desires, but expresses revulsion at the idea of being kissed by girls in other stories, even weeping in despair when she is kissed by Ran in one story. Further complicating matters is that her crazy father will not hesitate to stick his nose into his "son's" dating life, and [[ShipperOnDeck he is both vehemently pro-Ryuunosuke/girl and anti-Ryuunosuke/boy]].

In one story, Ryuunosuke realises after some thought that the only people she's ever admired have been girls, but when asked what she'd like in a boyfriend, asserts that she'd like a boyfriend who is stronger than her, tough and wild -- and then she agrees to duel the various boys at Tomobiki High to see if any can measure up to her standards and become her boyfriend. Further complicating matters is that her crazy father will not hesitate to stick his nose into his "son's" dating life, and [[ShipperOnDeck he is both vehemently pro-Ryuunosuke/girl and anti-Ryuunosuke/boy]]. She ends up in an ArrangedMarriage with a [[DudeLooksLikeALady extremely pretty crossdressing boy]] namd Nagisa Shiowatari, who was ''also'' RaisedAsTheOppositeGender by a crazy dad, and so is as feminine as Ryuunosuke wishes she could be... [[SilkHidingSteel but also so strong and skilled in martial arts he can easily beat her]].
