What I ultimately figured was that Kanji's a straight dude who has some girly hobbies and is insecure about it.

I think Atlus dropped the ball with his character. He could've been a gay dude who's ashamed of his homosexuality and uses hyper-masculinity as a cover, but really he's just a straight dude who's worried someone might find out he likes girly stuff. His whole character arc boils down to him accepting that there's nothing wrong with him liking girly stuff, it's really superficial quite honestly.

I think that's considered diversity in Japan though. They don't do the SJW thing, especially not when this game was originally released.

It's like they copied the plot from a teen soap opera but didn't realize that the guy is overcompensating because he likes men not because he likes short shorts and knitting.
