I think it's more because Hime (Makoto) had only ever loved Arata's past self which he thought was a girl. Hence why Hime was so hesitant at first when he found out that Arata was actually a guy. Hime wasnt really straight nor was he gay or bi. He had only ever loved one person so I feel he's more pan or maybe even demi? I think Arata said it in a way that implied that Hime had finally accepted him and was working hard towards improving himself for the sake of their relationship (but then again that's just how I interpreted it so I could be way off the mark ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ )
"He's not even gay or bi".... What? Why would a straight guy date another guy? Unless he's implying Hime is some other sexuality that isn't mentioned here, but this is yaoi so I doubt that lmao
