romanticize (verb): to view something in a unrealistic/idealistic way.
So that clause means the person, during his/her adolescence (teenage years) had some of idealistic and unrealistic ideas about what love was suppose to be like.
every so often: occasionally; OR from time to time
so occasionally he/she will find another show that would make him feel the same way as "Love Hina" did
