So it really does seem like the show was just handled poorly.

I can see why people want to consider it a deconstruction because Kawamori can be a troll at times and throw out unexpected twists and Okada is an experienced writer, so you wouldn't expect the show to go this far of the rails.
Yeah, it seems so.

But actually, the unexpected twist ( Apollo = Pollon) wasn't Kawamori, it was Okada. :P

This is from the same interview I quoted from earlier.

If you watch Genesis of Aquarion again, you should be able to catch a glimpse of it. Honestly, I wanted to reveal it back in Genesis, but the romance between Apollo and Silvia took over and we lost the chance to show it. Okada said "You never used such an interesting plot point, what a waste!" To find out whether all the viewers would say "What? He was a dog?" or "Oh, he was the dog!" the only way for us was to lift the lid and see! To be frank, I was also a bit scared at what the reaction would be (laughs).
Don't give up on her yet though! Just look for her 12 episode series instead of the long ones. AnoHana will always be one of my favorites.
