Shounen Anime with no romance?

There are 3 kinds:
--------------------------
*The sausagefest.
*No Kissing, no hugging: All friendliness, no sexual o romantic tension between men& women.
*Ship-sinker: The mangaka trolls fan with potential boy-girl pairings, then renders the relationships impossible.

Examples:
----------------
GetBackers: Ban likes Himiko? Too bad. Mangaka decided to make them separated siblings. Ban likes Hevyn? Too bad. She's completely dedicated to a minor villain. Sakura likes Makubex? Too bad. He's a hologram. Ren likes Kadzuki? Too bad, She's a hologram & he's got two men fighting over him.

Hunter x Hunter: Sausage fest. What few women there are don't stick around long & are rarely seen again after that. Biscuit? Her cute childlike form is a lie; she's a body-builder granny.

Gensoumaden Saiyuki: Sausagefest laden with bromance.

Hetalia: Sausagefest. Hungary''s the only chick who doesn't scare Italy, but he's più interested in Germany & Japan. Belarus likes Russia, but she scares the piss out of him. Liechtenstein only likes big brother Switzerland.

Majin Tantei Nougami Neuro: Much to the jerkin of fans, Neuro & Yako never develop a relationship & there is no sexual tension between the two. Then again, it's not advisable for an immortal demon to fall for a creature with a life expectancy of 90 years.

Noblesse: Raizel is asexual & about at romantic as a ham steak. After fawning over Yu-Na forever, Shin-Wu decides to be just-friends.

I should have added Cramortie High; it's an all-male Azumanga Daioh. & I probably should have specified that the cast needs to be male.

Well, FMA might count. It doesn't focus on romance, at least. Ed kind of winds up with Winry, but that's in Brotherhood, I think. If te watch the 2003 version, it's pretty much strictly brotherly Amore between Al and Ed and motherly Amore between Riza and Ed. Riza kind of sees Ed as the son she never had.
Another one that might work is Azumanga Daioh. It's not really shounen, but it has no romance at all. Except te might count Kaorin's bizarre obsession with Sakaki to be a relationship. But it's pretty much unreturned, and Sakaki is definitely not lesbian like Kaorin. Other than Kaorin's freakish behavior, there's no romance.
Yu-Gi-Oh! is definitely one. It's a huge ship-sinker. Anzu has an obvious crush on Yuugi/Yami, yet nothing happens between them at all. The only thing that counts is their one date, and that was mostly just to cheer Yami up and help him with his amnesia.
This is all I can think of at the moment. I might add some più later.
