"Similar to Black Lagoon" tells me Darker than Black. No ecchi though, and I think the romance is more prominent in S2 (correct me if I'm wrong - just a guess).

Add mecha to the mix and Gurren Lagann (much better than Darker than Black) comes to mind. That has a lot more eyecandy and is a total epic.

Also, do your own research using catagories on AniDB. >_>

Don't know where you got that impression from, Darker Than Back 2 doesn't have romance.  Unless you count the occasional tiny bits from side characters that last for like 1/2 an episode.  And then said side characters probably get killed.

Darker Than Black 2 is pretentious as fuck, and sucks, compared to the first season.  So unless you thought the first season was a 10/10 masterpiece (which I certainly didn't), it's probably not worth it watching the second.  Also, no, it's not going to answer any of your questions from the first season, all it'll do is create more.

I knew it was bad, not that bad though. Damn. My romance assumption, honestly, was between Hei & Yin. Did nothing happen between them in the second season? :/

Well, depend on how you look at it.  If you don't mind the ending, it's pretty much just the same as DtB season 1, maybe slightly worse.

Pretty much, it feels like to me the scriptwriter tried very hard to make it seem "deep" or something, but to me, fails miserably.  Ok, season 1's ending was sort of confusing right?  Well, I'm sort of fine with that, at least you can sort of figure stuff out.  But season 2 is like, lets make up 2 episodes of random shit at the end and hope you have a good imagination to somehow guess-timate something out of the mess.  Feels like watching the script writer's orgasm.

Yin was stuck in some sort of weird cryostasis box or something like that for like 95% of the show.

Oh lawd. Yes, the first seasons ending was confusing, indeed that's the whole point of a second season, to suss it all out. Shame it sounds like they really made a mess of it.

I guess this is the trouble with original Anime series.

Wat? Gunfight Romance it does look like, not Ecchi As far as I know.

Black Lagoon barely makes the cut for Ecchi as it's only really Revy who's looking constantly smokin' hot.. and showing it.
