To put it simply: nope!

Mayoi and Shinobu both have a genuine sense of love and care for the other. Mayoi loves Shinobu and is thankful to have him as a friend, while Shinobu is more than happy to have another member of the Ninja Association!Shinobu has stated multiple times that he isn't afraid of Mayoi; that he trusts him and knows he is harmless.

He has a great read on the other and knows that at heart, Mayoi is truly pure and has nothing but the best interests of others in mind. He knows how to comfort the other and is willing to go out of his way to prove to Mayoi that he is not a burden or disgusting.

Mayoi... loves Shinobu a lot, very obviously so. He has several voiced and unvoiced desires involving him. However, when his thoughts become dangerous, he recognizes that that isn't "love", and that he can't force Shinobu to become his. He wants the best for his Chief, and though he often comes off as unintentionally creepy, he wants nothing more than to protect Shinobu and spend his days happily with him.In short: Mayoi's thoughts are intrusive and should not be taken at face value.

The ship is often labeled as pedophilic, predatory, and so on, despite many instances of the story disproving this.Mayoi and Shinobu only have an age gap of one year and three days. And yes, while Shinobu is a minor (17 years old), he doesn't like being treated as a child. By the end of the day, he's a hero, and he's great at caring for and watching over others. This meshes well with Mayoi, who's extremely similar in that front. (They have both even been referred to as "Mama" by another one of their unit mates at least once.) However, Mayoi is much more anxious and seemingly child-like at times, which helps give Shinobu a desire to love and care for Mayoi.Mayoi has never once acted on his unwanted thoughts and done something to harm Shinobu. Intrusive thoughts are not defining of an individual, and Mayoi shouldn't be defined by his unwanted thoughts.The relationship is mutual; at least on a friendship level.

(However, it should be noted that Shinobu doesn't display any discomfort towards Mayoi's ((very obvious)) crush on him, even going along with the idea of marriage in the future.)TL;DR:
Read Mayoi's third idol story.
Read Dead End Land.
