If the relationship came off as superficial to you, then that's a problem with the writing. I believe they were "meant" to be seen as close, albeit in a nontraditional way. Their friendship and the fluctuating conflict between them is kind of central to the show.

Obviously, there is no denying that the, uh, exploration of their relationship dominates the fandom, so I can understand the sentiment. (That would be code for "I don't ship it, either.")

Yes, I agree that it's a problem with the writing. I think the writers would have done better to use the "show not tell" method to illustrate their friendship (show them in R1 talking more, hanging out more, etc.) As it was, there really is not enough evidence to explain why they are so obsessed with each other. On the other hand, neither of these boys strike me as having very many other friends, so we could take their obsession as a manifestation of alienation or sanity slippage. Lelouch, in particular, strikes me as the obsessive type in general.

Personally, I "ship it" soulmate wise (whether or not canon necessarily supports it) but not necessarily sexually/romantically, though I am okay with that, too. I avoid the fandom, mostly because I'm a newbie.
