There are heaps of lesbian lolis but I can't think of a single gay shota in an anime.
Why is this?

Edit: Not including hentai

There are a few, it is just that they have not come out of the closet yet, like Momiji Souma in Fruit Basket.

I think Li Syaoran from Sakura Cardcaptor can fit the description.

Well, I have no idea why shota gay are less. Probably because there are more male viewers than female viewers.

Momiji Souma hasn't been gay to begin with... It seems you haven't watched the Second or Final Season...

It is true, I haven't finished it. I dropped it after the forth episode of the 2.season because the characters started grating on my nerves.

I think it's because of the majority of girls liking "Cool" boys more so most of BL anime consists of "Cool" boys instead of shotas

That was perhaps because he couldn't accept his gayness and overcompensated. Actually I don't have a clue, because, as I have mentioned above, I haven't finished the series.

Most anime is aimed at cis straight guys as a target demographic and as a member of the Lgbt community a lot of us notice that media in general seems to be more likely to represent queer female characters more often than male characters tan queer male characters and its probably due to fetishization some straight guys do to lesbian couples and relationships so more of those are added since it would appeal to tat crowd. A gay male character tends to be off-putting to those kinds of people especially when they're young and since a lot of anime seems to try and make as much money as possible and Japan is a very conservative country theyd tend to shy away from it probably due to the fact it wouldn't be appealing to that said audience. I don't really have too many numbers to go off of, but I see this sort of trend a lot in media not just anime as you also see it a lot in American comics where a lesbian character is more likely to be introduced tan a gay male character. When we are going into the nice of really young characters it makes it even harder to find since we are now adding another trait on top of it.

Maybe "Super Lovers"? I usually like BL anime, but the age gap of a 14 year old (who looks 10), and a 24 year old was too much for me... They also met when the boy was like 8 years old...

Also, Jinnai Enta from "Sarazanmai" is in love with his male best friend. He's also 14, but looks pretty young.

I was going to mention this one, but I see you got it.  I liked Hatsuta though his dynamic with the mc was rather unique.  Lol
