Re: spoilers sort of

Hmm, Kotetsu/Barnaby doesn't count imo because they start as rivals before they become close, so that's shitloads of tension there and not really comparable to an "always best friends" situation.
I don't know Free! so I can't comment, and haven't seen Getbackers, but isn't Getbackers like... crazy slashy with Ban and Ginji? All the promo art looks like a yaoi. So there's heavy pushing in that direction, which is also different from a "just best friends~" situation that isn't being pushed for yaoi-baiting.
I will give you Masayoshi/Gotou, but I still think that their dynamic doesn't fall into the "best friends" type. I think that Best Friends is different from characters just Being Friends. Like, I don't actually think their relationship is particularly comparable to Eren and Armin.

Again, anything that's mucking with Rival/Not Rival?? dynamics is different because Eren and Armin are not rivals at all by any stretch.

But you bring up some interesting examples.

So basically what I'm getting from this is you don't think "best friends" is a popular pairing type because you've given it an artificially narrow definition. Like, it's so incredibly narrow it's completely pointless.

They're not allowed to have any tension (at any point), they can't have ship baiting, and they have to be comparable to Eren and Armin? I'm not even sure what that last one means.

Like, what is even left? Eren and Armin don't count under your definition because imo they've had a shitload of baiting. Almost as much as Ymir/Krista and Mikasa/Eren.
