Two (or more) characters that are Love Interests (or at least Implied Love Interests) merge together into a single being. The merger can be a case of Fusion Dance, Merger of Souls or Mind Hive; it's also commonly accompanied by a number of intentional implications, such as being akin to courtship, bonding and cuddling, sex, marriage, or even reproduction.
Compare Mental Affair, in which two or more people engage in psychic sex (and thus literally plays up the sexual aspect of Romantic Fusion); and Mindlink Mates, where Love Interests are connected by a Psychic Link. See also Sibling Fusion for the familial equivalent of this trope.

Yuma and Astral in Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL regularly do a Fusion Dance, where each upgrade represents a new stage in their relationship and a deeper understanding of each other. Astral's Love Confession to Yuma in the manga clinches the subtext as romantic.

Fire Emblem: Three Houses: The Player Character, Byleth, finds themselves Sharing a Body with a Mysterious Waif that only they can see or hear. It is later revealed that this is Sothis, an ancient and powerful entity worshipped as a goddess all over Fodlan. When Byleth stumbles into a trap that leaves them trapped in an alternate dimension, Sothis has no choice but to fully merge their souls together so that Byleth can use her power to escape. Later in the game, if Byleth chooses Sothis as the partner they wish to marry, Sothis will reveal that she is in love with Byleth no matter the gender and they will be married in mind, body and soul, to the degree that Sothis says that Byleth wearing one ring for the both of them is sufficient.

In The Saga of the Last Two Saiyans, Shin suggests permanent fusion to Goku as a possible way of releasing Vegeta from his and Goku's soul-bond without the gods finding out their relationship was fake. Goku could be absorbed by Vegeta and they would tell the gods they were so in love that they didn't want to be separate beings anymore.

In Shin Megami Tensei, you can have Hindu god Shiva and his wife Parvati as Mons in your party. In many games, fusing both of them will result in the demon Ardha, who is basically Shiva and Parvati combined together (as mentioned above in Mythology & Religion). This is also usually the only way to get Ardha in your party.
Near the end of Digital Devil Saga, Serph and Sera died but their souls fused, forming the intersex Seraph. Futhermore, their Atma Avatar is Ardha.

In Dekiru: The Fusion Hero!, Izuku's absorption quirk allows him to "absorb" people, temporarily fusing with them. The second person he fuses with is his Implied Love Interest Ochako. The resulting fusion not only has the One for All, but Ochako's Zero Gravity Quirk is enhanced so it can also control the movement of anything under its effects.

SCP Foundation: SCP-2989 is a pair of caterpillars that are constantly traveling through time and space, trying to find each other and leaving poetry behind in their wake. At the end of the entry, the two finally arrive at the same point in time and space, rush to each other, and fuse into a single chrysalis. After eight days, the chrysalis hatches, revealing a butterfly that matches the description of no known butterfly species. It produces the word "WHOLE" in fifty-three languages before moving to an unknown point in space-time.

A few Neon Genesis Evangelion fan fictions depicting a romance between Shinji and Rei would feature a scene where the two merge into one being, likely inspired by the scenes in The End Of Evangelion such as Rei merging with Lilith and Shinji being fused with Rei in a sexual position during the Instrumentality. Due to Rei's nature as part-Angel via Lilith, the merging of the two often creates a god-like being powerful enough to start the Third Impact under their terms.

In The Soulmate Timeline, a Walpurgisnacht is what happens when the Witches in a Soulbond of Magical Girls are born and then fuse together into a single entity of cataclysmic destruction. Given the members of a Soulbond are romantically linked, this makes a Walpurgisnacht essentially their Evil Counterpart, and some of Mami's Witchself Candeloro's musings have her make mention of how badly she wants to "become one" with Homulilly (Homura), Kriemheld Gretchen (Madoka), Oktavia (Sayaka), and Ophelia (Kyoko) until they can't tell where they begin and end anymore.

Final Fantasy XIV: Long ago, an Elezan woman known as Shiva and the dragon Hraesvelgr fell in love. Faced with the societal barriers between humans and dragons, and the fact that Hraesvelgr would outlive Shiva many times over, Shiva bade Hraesvelgr to eat her, causing her soul to be joined to his. Centuries later, they remain connected, and Shiva's influence has kept Hraesvelgr from joining Nidhogg's war of revenge against humankind. In Shadowbringers, Ryne becomes the First Shard's version of the primal Shiva. In the Savage version of her battle, she summons a copy of Shiva's love Hraesvelgr to her side. Hraesvelgr physically bonds with Shiva, granting her draconic power.

In The Stars Are Cold Toys, one of the heroes, who spent some time in The Shadow, an interplanetary society where everything is possible, mentions he saw this twice. The first time it was a loving couple who fused into a single two-headed body, the second time - an entire large family. It is implied that this state is completely voluntary and reversible.

Soul Nomad & the World Eaters: Revya's possession by Gig doesn't have a lot of romantic overtones to it normally, despite Gig's ironic use of 'soulmate' to describe Revya. Getting Gig's ending, however, which can only be achieved by having the highest affection level with Gig, leads to the pair sharing a body again after being split apart by Gig's Heroic Sacrifice during the last level. If Revya is female this ending takes on a particularly romantic tone.

Dark Messiah of Might and Magic: Xana and the protagonist are linked together magically early in the story, and the bond between them manifests as her voice broadcasting in his thoughts, and many of her demonic powers being usable by him. Given that Xana is a Succubus, their connection is given very sexual connotations, with Xana submissively promising to fulfill his every desire.

In Ghost in the Shell (1995), the goal of the Big Bad, Puppet Master, is to merge with Major Kusanagi. This is referred to at various points as "mating" between the two machines. When it happens at the end, the new entity has a child-like body (the only thing Batou was able to find) and is comparable to the "offspring" of the two original beings. The original manga takes this a step further, by explaining that the Puppet Master needs Motoko in order to actually procreate. He could easily copy himself as many times as he wanted, but with no actual variation between the copies, a single computer virus could wipe them all out. The 2nd manga goes on to show that Motoko Aramaki is one of 27 different offspring that came about from Motoko Kusanagi's fusion with the Puppet Master.

Voltage Fighter Gowcaizer: Ryo and Suzu Asahina fuse together in their Kaizer Form to create the sub-boss Platonic Twins where Ryo becomes the arms, shoulders, legs, and head or Suzu is suspended in the centre as a torso and arms. Despite the boss name having "Platonic" in this is still an example of a couple fusion (at least according to the Original Video Animation adaptation) and therefore is also a Sibling Fusion.

Steven Universe is likely the Trope Codifier, featuring multiple Fusions made of love. While a fusion can be formed from any type of relationship, there are several romantic ones:
Stevonnie, the Fusion of Steven and Connie, is first formed by accident when they share a romantic dance. The two rather enjoy being Fused, except for the fact that it means they've literally become one and the same person without another person to depend on, and thus are "Alone Together" (the title of Stevonnie's debut episode).
Ruby and Sapphire, upon accidentally Fusing for the first time, get stranded on Earth and grow closer together before Fusing again. Said Fusion runs into Rose Quartz, who convinces her to stay Fused and continue the relationship. The two are in a very loving relationship together and spend almost all of their time Fused.
Rainbow Quartz is a Fusion between Rose and Pearl, who was/is deeply in love with Rose. Rose definitely reciprocated her feelings, though whether she acted on them is unknown.
Malachite is an inversion, being a Fusion comprised of two Gems who hated each other and had a toxic, harmful relationship.
The episode "Off Colors" introduces Rhodonite, a star-crossed Fusion of a Ruby and a Pearl who fell in love with each other, as well as Fluorite, a Fusion of six Gems who fell in love with each other at different points, and wouldn't mind adding another if they were the right one.

Kelly and Tad from Star vs. the Forces of Evil are a fairly silly example: Kelly most looks human except she has very long, voluminous hair that resembles a bush. Her boyfriend Tad essentially is a bush, and spends most of their appearance together sitting on her head, appearing to merge with her hair.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3: Each of the main characters can "interlink" with one other, creating an Ouroboros form. This form allows them to see each other's memories and desires, bringing them closer together as people. Noah and Mio are explicitly romantic, and their Evil Twins N and M never interlink despite still having the ability, representing their suffering relationship. The other two pairs—Eunie and Taion, Lanz and Sena—can also interlink and merge into an Ouroboros form, but whether their relationships are romantic or platonic are a constant source of debate.

Kill Six Billion Demons: Allison and Cio do this in King of Swords, becoming what is known in-universe as a Devil-Skin Warrior called Allicio. Normally, Devil-Skin Warriors lead to conflicts between the two parts and either the devil or the human dominating (which breaks the fusion or kills the human), but Allison and Cio being romantically involved and fully trusting each other means they are able to synchronize their soul-flames perfectly and work together. They later add White Chain to it during Breaker of Infinities in some not-so-subtle Threesome Subtext.

In Futurama, the Planet Express gets a computer AI (voiced by Sigourney Weaver) that falls in love with Bender. After she turns into a crazed, murderous Yandere and finds out that Bender is a philanderer, she decides to merge with him so the two will be together forever. Bender is not enthused about that. This is apparently a common enough place for robot relationships to go in-universe as it's discussed by Bender and the ship in terms reminiscent of marriage.

In Digimon Adventure 02, the second generation of Chosen Children unlock the power of Jogress Evolution, where their Digimon partners become able to fuse when said Digimons' human partners become emotionally in sync with each other. Such fusion affects the kids, too, ranging from simply making them feel closer to each other to feeling each other's heartbeats. There are rumors that all Jogress Evolutions were made from Digimon with humans of the same sex to stop it from looking romantic, but it the music, lighting, and kids' reactions during their first fusions make it look very intimate and romantic.

Firestorm: Jason Rusch and his girlfriend Gehenna gained the ability to merge into the eponymous hero. This was treated with very romantic (and sometimes sexual) undertones between the two.

In one story of The Metamorphoses, a nymph named Salmacis lusts after a young boy named Hermaphroditus, but he fights back when she tries to force herself on him, prompting her to wish that they could never part. The gods, who side with Salmacis, respond by merging their bodies into one. This is obviously the origin of the term Hermaphrodite.

In The Fly (1986), the concept is brought up in the climax: Seth, deranged and desperate to retain some of his humanity as his transformation into Brundlefly nears its endpoint, formulates a plan to genetically merge himself with a "pure" human. When he learns his lover Veronica is pregnant but doesn't want to bear a possibly-mutant child, he kidnaps her and decides she'll be that human. His last lines — just before he's rendered The Speechless by his One-Winged Angel transformation — have him declaring "We'll be the ultimate family!...More human than I am alone!" Veronica's ex-lover manages to rescue her from this fate.

Mass Effect: Andromeda: Like most asari, Peebee uses her Mind Meld on Ryder during sex. But the game shows it much more clearly this time and demonstrates that the meld sends them into a peaceful Mental World, where two of them are alone and their thoughts are merged. Based on their reaction, it's one of the most intense and pleasurable acts either have experienced.

In Hellsing, the vampire Seras and Pip Bernadotte have significant romantic tension. When the latter is mortally wounded, he ends up having his soul merged with the fully awakened Seras when he allows her to drink his blood, resulting in him becoming her familiar. While he usually exists inside her and can talk mentally with her he can also be manifested at any time she wills it.

In Fear & Hunger it's possible to appease Sylvian, the goddess of love and fertility, by sexual intercourse with a willing partner, fusing the player and the other party into a being known as the Marriage which has higher base stats.
