(Honoka's the next closest, and that's because he KNOWS she loves him, and he feels guilty that he is incapable of returning the emotion. Guilt for Erika/Shizuku = jack diddly squat)

Erika may be attracted to Tatsuya, but Tatsuya (so far) only likes her as a friend who he will kill to protect the orders of the Yotsuba.

At most, it's Erika > Tatsuya.

You can talk about "hidden signs" all you want, but the author has no idea what "subtle" means. This author is as subtle as Hideyuki Kikuchi (of Vampire Hunter D). "Miyuki is the mostest beautifulest persons in all the land, so beautiful that other girls can't get jealous, they'll even turn at least bi-sexual!" "Tatsuya may have no emotions, but even HE thinks she's just about the most adorable perfect person in the world, who he would do anything and kill anyone for."

(The reason I bring up Vampire Hunter D: "When D faced a copy of himself, it was like the world would collapse, unable to sustain so much beauty." ) *gags*

Support whoever you want: that's the privilege of being a fan. But the romantic underdog in manga/anime NEVER wins, especially those for who you have to DIG for "hidden signs."
I agree with this, the author has been pretty blunt about the pairings, and the underdog almost never wins in ln/anime/manga, so if you have to look for subtle/hidden signs to prove the pairings, its not happening. Besides which, its impossible for tats to end up with anyone, he simply has no feelings for that sort of thing.
