It is true Alto piloted the VF-25 for the first time partially because of Ranka, but that is definitely not his primary reason to pilot. Lets not forget, he wanted to do that all along. Furthermore, he voluntarily went to the battlefield to observe the spectacles never realizing Ranka was there. Ranka or no Ranka, he would have jumped that VF-25 anyway when given a chance.

And he would have joined the SMS with or without, knowing or without knowing Ranka. Joining the SMS was him making a practical choice. If he didn't, the military would have arrested him anyway.

This is Japanese pop culture, incest is... fairly commonplace.

Ranka is not weak, but she has this one thing different from both Alto and Sheryl.

Both A & S have goals in life. Alto wanted to be a pilot while Sheryl wanted to be the galaxy's most (in)famous diva. Both of them actively sought after whatever prerequisites they might need to achieve their objectives, even if their methods were different. Alto is more straightforward, while Sheryl is more on-the-go.

Ranka on the other hand, often requires some sort of a catalyst. She certainly displayed a lot of weakness in the early episodes and it was not until episode 10 when she thought she should play the role of Mao or all hopes are lost. Nonetheless, she chose to star in the role because once again, Alto and Sheryl kissing acted as a catalyst. Alto and Sheryl more often just 'go at it', while Rank is more passive in that regard.

Oh, and he is not the only one To be honest, the image of Alto x Ranka is very disturbing to me, both visually and/or mentally... doesn't feel right.
