yeah well of course the sports romance anime about a girl and a guy isn't going to have queer implications. male team sports anime usually focus on bromance which is actually very prevalent in irl male team sports (observation from my high school days) and if they're not, then are are straight up gay (yuri on ice is NOT queerbait and run with the w...... reply
