Why is this manga marked as shonen-ai? I'm pretty sure it's not unless I missed something when I read it before...

Its called shonen ai because, if you've noticed the manga was more focused on Daisuke & dark. There are at some parts when Daisuke called Satoshi a friend. That's one reason why i really like this manga. Its focused alot about their relationships. Shoujo was cute =] But I cared more about the GUYS. <3 -Daisuke- >_<

I also kinda hints that Satoshi likes Daisuke. Which is pretty easy to notice. But then I don't know if one-sidedness is counted as it. -.-''

There is also homoeroticism suggested in the interaction between Dark and Crad.

And you'll remember the moment when Satoshi is cross-dressing and Dark comes onto him. Granted, Dark says then that he'd like Hikari _if_ he were a girl, but the shounenai is still there for the readers.

The story's not really centered on Riku/Risa's relationship with Dark/Daisuke. There are hints between the guy characters.

It's hinted alot (like 5 times in each manga) that Satoshi has feelings for Diasuke. He's nearly kissed him, and has nearly kissed Dark.
Dark has also mentioned that if Satoshi were a girl, he's like him.

Don't forget that Daisuke is the key to Satoshi's transformation, and it's motivated by love just as Daisuke's transformation into Dark is. There was a scene where Satoshi had a vision of Daisuke and was saying that with Daisuke, he imagined perfect contentment and his heart was uplifted (or something like that) and then he almost transformed (or did).

all this time i've been thinking that Daisuke, Dark and Datoshi were gay.probably krad too.
true that the story is focused on Daisuke and Dark (cause' they're both the main characters)
i can't accept the fact that they have some "feelings" for the each other. Daisuke may be the reason why Satoshi transforms into Krad. but Datoshi doesn't change because of feelings of love. remember, Krad hates dark and Krad plans to take over Hikari's body? PLUS Dark is in Daisuke, so when Krad will do whatever it takes to control Satoshi and kill both Daisuke and Dark.
And i guess Daisuke is TOO MUCH of a kind guy to help others.
