While Lycoris Recoil does not explicitly state it, there are major hints in Episode 7 that confirm Mika's gay.
Mika is about to meet Yoshimatsu Shinji in a secluded bar in Episode 7 to discuss the future of Chisato.
Chisato decided to follow them after catching a glimpse of Mika's text message, thanks to Takina, Mizuki, and Kurumi's assistance.
Chisato and Takina discuss the person Mika would like to meet at a bar. They were all convinced Mika was going on a date. Unbeknownst to everyone, Chisato had foreseen Mika's meeting with someone significant in her past.
Takina and Kurumi brought up the possibility of Mika going on a date with Kusunoki, which Mizuki and Chisato completely rejected. Chisato and Mizuki shivered at the prospect of Mika and Kusunoki being lovers. Not once, but twice!
Chisato and Mizuki also informed Takina and Kurumi that Mika's meeting with Kusunoki would not be a date. This is due to the fact that Kusunoki is a woman, which means Mika is not the type to date women.
Yoshimatsu Shinji arrived at the bar at this point. Mizuki and Chisato both agree that it is a date after learning that Shinji was the person Mika was meeting with. As a result, Kurumi and Takina inquire whether Mika swings that way.

From the first time he appeared in the series, he was just a warm and friendly old man to Chisato and the others. Over time, Mika's role in the series is becoming increasingly important.
Despite Mika's role as a supporting character in Lycoris Recoil, he raises a lot of questions.
What occurred in Mika's past? How did he get hurt? What happened to his time in the DA as a Lycoris instructor?
There will be a lot of exciting things to come, so keep an eye on more episodes of Lycoris Recoil!

Mika and Yoshimatsu's relationship is not yet confirmed in Lycoris Recoil as of this writing.
Whether they are dating or not, Mika and Yoshimatsu have a more intimate relationship that is greater than that of being friends.
Based on Yoshimatsu's actions toward Mika, it appears that the two have had a romantic relationship in the past. From Yoshimatsu's Kabedon to his lip whisper to Mika, it appears that the two of them are more than just friends.
Not to mention that the two have made promises over the last ten years.
Mika, on the other hand, is conflicted about Yoshimatsu's decision on Chisato. While Mika wishes to free Chisato from the clutches of the Alan Institute, Yoshimatsu refuses to release her.
Regardless, Mika remains a good father figure for Chisato. Every time he visits the Lyco Reco cafe, he maintains a civil relationship with Yoshimatsu.
What are your opinions? Is the Mika x Yoshimatsu ship going to sail in Lycoris Recoil soon, or will it drown forever?
