I keep having to tell myself that Lelouch was special, even before Geass. In part, he was forged from a tragedy like none that I have ever experienced. I'm twenty-seven, and there are real kids in their late teens that are more mature than I am. I don't consider myself immature, but I am a childless bachelor, and I've had no crucible to push me further. So maybe the Code Geass characters that lost parents and brothers are made of different stuff than I am.
Also, I used up all of my annoyance regarding youngness on Final Fantasy X, my favourite video game. I like all of the characters in that game, but their listed ages are too young for their selflessness.

Re: Character ages in Code Geass
This. So much this.
