Off the top of my head, I can only think of these:
Fire Emblem has a few examples. In Fates, the player character can get romantic S-Supports with Hayato and the 2nd generation “child” units. Engage has Jean and Clanne, who can be offered the Pact Ring. Admittedly, the localization tries to make it more explicitly platonic, and the Japanese version was still vague in its wording. Still, since almost every other Pact Ring support is romantic, I think the implication remains.
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet has the obsessive (and adorable!) Kieran, who has a lot of dialogue that is often interpreted by fans as him having a crush on the MC. While I choose to believe this, it’s still kind of grasping at straws.
Probably the best one I can think of is Persona 3 Portable, which if you play as the female protagonist, lets you straight up pursue and groom a young boy into a relationship. The localization couldn’t do too much to hide this one from the west. Haven’t played it yet, but it’s definitely on my list now.
