Maybe try

-My Dress Up Darling

-The Dangers In My Heart

“Call of the Night” has two seasons, is relativly new and has romance without it being the main focus.

Monogatari series is quite long and is ecchi, but it is different from your “normal” anime so it is not for everyone. First seasons aired around 2015s if I’m not mistaken, but recent entries are around 2023ish. You need to look for watch order list to et the full expirience tho.

Two that come to mind, that probably would be a good fit for you

• ReZero
• Rascal Does Not Dream series (two seasons, three movies)

7 Deadly Sins

Quite a few seasons, plus movies. Fantasy. Includes mature themes, delivery is often humorous, but I wouldn’t say childish for sure.

Adding nothing of value here but I’m curious as to the responses you would receive.

The criteria of:

• modern
• long-running
• romance

turned out to be quite restrictive, and I can’t think of any good recommendation off of anime I’ve watched 😅
