He shows surpassed attraction towards him few times in canon, but its mostly evident in love hotel event where he calls out for Kokichi and wants him to stay after he flees and in graduation event where he blushes while admitting he's been captivated by Kokichi. (12/14)
In canon, besides confession scene, Kokichi shows to be caring towards Shuichi and flirts with him on many occasions and even considers trusting him despite his trust issues. (5/14)
graduation event where he asks Shuichi to stay by each others side and fails to hide the warmth of his hand AND love hotel is a whole proof of his attraction to Shuichi on itself. (4/14)
Kokichi confesses his love to Shuichi in canon, does it again in free time events, does it again in a form of flirting in salmon events, harmonious heart event where he considers giving up a part of himself just to get close to Shuichi and then QUOTING a famous gay ship (3/14)
To start with, simply put, a ship which has a whole confession scene in CANON mode and not just bonus events(there are confessions too mind you), simply can NOT be considered random. This alone should be enough of the explanation but whatever (2/14)
Soo frustrated with people saying "saiouma is random" or "it makes no sense" like ughhhh...so today I present you a thread of why saiouma is IN FACT not random(can't believe I'm explaining this as if I'm not about to state the most obvious stuff ever but anyway!!) (1/14)
