I personally never got the vibe that Kanji was gay, merely that he was having a disconnect with the things he actually liked to do and what was required of him to like according to society.

I can see where it could be argued he was gay, especially after the bathhouse, but he really just struck me a normal teenager (who fights evil shadow creatures with a folding chair) struggling with society's norms and expectations and his own reactions to how he feels everyone might reactions to what he really likes. To me the bathhouse just represented his fear of how other might perceive him if they really new him.

IE Just like every conforming teenager ever. At the most I might say Kanji might turn out to be bisexual because of his reactions to Naota, who is arguably having the same exact problem.
