From information I got, the translation team got something off with Byakkomaru's answer when it came to love. People want or believe that Shinya is gay. That's fine, is personal opinion but, taking the canon road, Shinya simply shows admiration and love to Guren but not in a romantic sense, it's more the love you feel towards a treasured one, a friend, a partner but it's not romantic type of love.

As always, it's point of view of the readers. In fact, Shinya simply treasures Guren because he has the qualities he wished he could possess.
