Line 9:
** Combined with one of the intros showing Juubei and Kazuki represented as needle and [[Red String of Fate|(red)]] thread (their respective weapons) it's pretty solid.
** Then there's Juubei's passionate declaration that he was born to protect Kazuki, a shot of them in a desperate half-embrace, half-serious-personal-space-violation in the third ending sequence, and Ginji even says they act like they're on their honeymoon.
* Takuma Fudou's one-sided obsession towards Ban. Which also overlaps with [[Foe Yay]]. Yes, it's ''very'' disturbing and ''very'' wrong... but it's undeniably there. And not very subtle, either. After Ban ripped his arm off, Fudou became totally obsessed with him. He actually kept his own rotting, maggot-infested arm with him just so he can remind himself of Ban - which made him feel "incredible chills rising up throughout his body." It gets worse: His passionate dialogue towards Ban includes how he has a "throbbing desire" to kill him, as well as screaming for Ban to "give his body to him," "meet his desires," "quench his thirst and let him enjoy himself." And when Ban starts worrying about his [[Heterosexual Life Partners|Heterosexual Life Partner]] Ginji, Fudou gets ''pissed''. "What are you looking at?! Look at '''me''', Takuma Fudou!!" This is taken [[Up to Eleven]] in the ''Birth'' Arc, where Fudou reveals his dislike for Ginji, even [https://web.archive.org/web/20100213163442/http://www.mangafox.com/manga/get_backers/v27/c003/10.html coming straight out and saying] that it's because "when you're around, Midou doesn't even notice me. Midou's eyes are not on me... because you're around!" He then [[Murder the Hypotenuse|proceeds to try to kill Ginji so that Ban will pay more attention to him]]. And then there's how he tells Ban that his mind goes blank whenever he sees him, and he can't remember anything other than trying to make Ban give his body to him and meet his desires. It's probably worth noting that he also got majorly pissed at both Hevyn and Shido for interfering with his fight with Ban, and for Hevyn gently putting a shirt on the [[Shirtless Scene|half naked Ban]] (an act which seemed to piss him off to the point where he went berserk). Another noteworthy scene is during the ''Birth'' Arc, where Fudou gets ''very'' restless and excited, and feels a great "desire," wondering what it is about this day that he senses is so exciting. It then cuts to Ban sneezing, and exclaiming happily that a big breasted babe must be thinking about or talking about him.
** As well as an instance where, when Ban wasn't putting up enough of a fight, Fudou started ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20091019112035/http://www.mangafox.com/manga/get_backers/v09/c001.2/93.html cutting himself up on the chest]'', screaming at Ban to "make him bleed" and "push him to the edge."
** Though Fudou's death scene ''was'' kind of sweet... in a weird, warped way. He confesses to Ban that he's happiest when he's fighting him, and that he wishes that they could [[The Masochism Tango|go on like this forever and ever]]. And Ban, on the other hand, ended up using up his {{spoiler|Evil Eye so that Fudou could have a nice dream before he died, of them continuing to fight}}. Ban's expression when he gently closed Fudou's eyes was actually pretty emotional and filled with compassion.
* You really can't miss the [[Ho Yay]], even if you're not into it. I mean, when OFFICIAL ART has Ban feeling up Ginji and the latter wearing nothing but a dress shirt... there's not really much to leave to the imagination. And that's not even starting on Kazuki's art...
** [[Sexy Shirt Switch|THE DRESS SHIRT IS BAN'S.]]

* Kuroudo Akabane to Ginji: "I look forward to being your partner... in more ways than one."
** Not to mention he comes to peel Ginji apples when he's in the hospital.
