History HoYay / CodeGeass

** Kanon is Schneizel's rather feminine looking aide, is implied to crossdress, and assists him in both his public and ''private'' affairs.
*** [[http://www.animepaper.net/gallery/scans/Code-Geass/item230473/ And then there's this official art]]...

* In the anime, Lloyd leans rather close to Suzuku after he woke up.

*** [[http://community.livejournal.com/code_geass/996929.html?thread=17585217#t17585217 Some of the fanbase has noted]] that there are some rather distinct similarities between Lelouch and Suzaku's story, and that of Seishirou and Subaru from {{CLAMP}}'s {{X1999}} - who are pretty much a canon couple. [[spoiler:Lelouch and Seishirou's respective death scenes being particularly reminiscent.]]

** In episode 16 of season 1 after Mao [[MindRape messes with Suzaku]] Lelouch gets really pissed and orders Mao to "Never speak again!"

** YMMV, but C.C. and Marianne. C.C. gazes upon Marianne lovingly in one of the flashback scene, Marianne's teasing, flirtatious manner when she and C.C. are reunited again ("C.C.! It's ME!") sounds a little [[LesYay too friendly]], and C.C. sounds genuinely heartbroken when she remarks that Charles and Marianne "only have love for themselves." Make of that what you will.

***** Also, his voice actor has absolutely no doubt that Rolo is in love with Lelouch, as he explicitly mentions in more than one of his interviews about the character. Then again, TakahiroMizushima is a pro at BL...

* Most of the official art for this series is very homoerotic.

*** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VHoWrmC7Et0&feature=related This]] picture drama features the guys dressing up as girls and girls dressing up as guys. Lelouch is shown to look rather lovely in an ElegantGothicLolita outfit but feels ashamed for wearing a dress. Suzaku tries to reassure him, says that he "looks beautiful" and Lelouch reprimands him.

* Although Rolo claims he sees Lelouch as an older brother some fans perceive Rolo as having some HoYay towards Lelouch. His NoSenseOfPersonalSpace around him is kind of suspect for one. Not to mention his overprotectiveness of the musical heart-shaped locket Lelouch accidentally gave him for his birthday (he meant to give it to Nunnally) which he keeps attached to his cell phone. This is to the point where some viewers saw [[spoiler: his killing Shirley]] as a case of MurderTheHypotenuse. His character song "Arabesque" especially is full of what can be interpreted as HoYay.

** Also, it's a little subtle but Sayoko seems to have tendencies towards Villeta.

*** There are at least 3 scenes in R1 where Suzaku walks away (sometimes into the sunset) and Lelouch watches his departure, broodingly. Lelouch's reaction to [[spoiler: Nunnally telling him that Euphie and Suzaku are together]] is a hiss of pure jealousy. Also, the first time Shirley tries to ask Lelouch out, he's too busy[[Wangst sulking]] over Suzaku to even notice she's in the room.

Lelouch is shown to look rather lovely in an ElegantGothicLolita outfit but feels ashamed for wearing a dress. Suzaku tries to reassure him, says that he "looks beautiful" and Lelouch reprimands him with "Idiot! Don't be gay!"

* Sayoko once kissed Shirley while disguised as Lelouch.

* Diethard's admiration of Zero and desire to document him and turn him into a legend occasionally comes off like this (especially his reaction to Zero's return).

* And, of course, the HoYay and the even more blatant FoeYay between Suzaku and Lelouch must be mentioned...In fact, some fans notice that Suzaku and Lelouch seem to have a... ''thing'' for each other. Sure, Lelouch has wanted to marry him off to Nunnally, but that guy has a BigBrotherComplex larger than he is, so he would want what ''he'' believes is ''truly the best candidate'' for his sister. It doesn't help that Lelouch treats [[spoiler:both the whole 'Suzaku selling him to the Emperor' thing as well as the 'apparently selling him to Schneizel' thing later like Suzaku was cheating on him.]] I'm sure that whole thing Suzaku had with Euphemia ''really doesn't count'', since R2 episode 21 has [[spoiler:Suzaku seemingly getting over it and becoming ''Emperor'' Lelouch's Knight of ''Zero''. With a really smug look on his face. After a month of being alone with Lelouch (C.C. was there too, but...)]]

* And then there's Kallen and C.C., who have an almost LovelyAngels dynamic in the CD and picture dramas, as well as early in R2. The various images CLAMP release [[http://img1.ak.crunchyroll.com/i/spire3/05192008/f/8/b/4/f8b4e699f61c80_full.jpg take things even further.]]

*** And then there's [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V14rZ58FxuY this]] audio drama, which features a Lelouch/Suzaku kiss. Complete with romantic music in the background. Though that drama is basically HoYay all round, given it's about most of the main male Geass characters accidentally ending up on a group date together. [[http://kitsune-no-ame.livejournal.com/119882.html Seriously.]]

** Come on, let's be serious. You could pair either of them with a rabbit or a cracker and there would still be a ridiculous amount of sexual tension in the room...someone's probably making a fanfic about this right now.
