From my anime experience:
The House of Five Leaves!! It's bromance... lovely bromance.
Natsume Yuujinchou - cheating here because it's a friendship between a human and a spirit. I love it though... you really see the relationship improve in the second season.
Somewhat "bromance" (at least strong bonds)
Honey and Clover - revolves around 5 friends. 😀
Spice and Wolf - their relationship is strong on many levels. Though... it's between a man and a fox spirit in the form of a girl.
Nice thread! I'm subscribing.

I made a HUGE post for that thread if you're willing to take a look XD
Most of the other recommendations on the thread also fit what you're looking for, I think.

A I actually really adore these sorts of series, so here goes.
Nabari no Ou - The friendship between Miharu and Yoite is very well developed and heartwarming and heartbreaking at the same time. Most shounen written by women display this trope.
Pandora Hearts has a bunch of that sort of friendship. Break and Reim, Gil and Oz, etc.
Ilegenes - The friendship between Jake and Fon is really awesome.
Dolls - Most of the main cast is male, so there are a lot of male friendships. Also... actually, everything that Naked Ape has ever written.
12 nin no Yasashii Koroshiya - YES. Just yes.
Amatsuki - There are a lot of really adorable friendships in here.
Flat - Does it matter if one of them is a kid? This series is just adorable beyond words. It's a must-read.
Diece - There are awfully strong friendships between some of the characters.
Immortal Rain - Rain and Yuca. There is no friendship stronger, even though they don't... well... don't exactly get along all the time... >>;;
The oneshot in Arcana - Demons entitled Kimi to Boku to Sekai no Owari - (You, me, and the end of the world) is really good. And also anything else by Kayase Shiki, especially Zion.
Seconding Natsume Yuujinchou like you don't even know.
Tora to Ookami - They're such good friends that the main character mistakes them for gay. O_O
If you want to delve into the realm of really long shounen... [m]Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles is worth reading if only for some of the wonderfully developed friendships.
Umm... I'm sure there are tons more. I'll post again if I think of any!

Go to work, send your kids to school;
Follow fashion, act normal;
Walk on the pavement, watch T.V.;
Save for retirement, obey the law.
Repeat after me: I am free.

You might enjoy Sanctuary. The two characters in question are certainly close.
