Surprisingly prevalent! Zelos/Sheena?!

I'm not into these "Dressing" communities, they're just not my thing, but [livejournal.com profile] libekory has been stalking them, and she lets me know what is amusing and worth looking at.

But her experiences watching [livejournal.com profile] talesofdressing have taught me that every, single, person in the Tales of Symphonia fandom thinks Zelos ♥ Sheena. They are OTP 4eva.

Okay, I played this game. I know why people might ship them. It's pretty traditional. Boy flirts with girl, girl bitches at boy, girl teaches boy the error of his whoring ways. The pairing makes sense, even if it's not my cup of tea. (Her crush on Lloyd is just too. cute. and his epic issues with women could fill a book, but not a real relationship.)

But man. How depressing is that? Everyone is doing it. There are two different married-to-Sheena-with-children!Zeloses. AU!High School!Zelos is hot for Sheena. Female!Zelos is heterosexual -- except for Sheena. (Not Colette? Man. Even Sheena is gay for Colette.)

So, tell me -- is Zelos/Sheena more canon in the manga or the anime or something? Because in the game, I never thought these two would become a fandom OTP.
