Especially since Amata is "very" hung up over his past lives and is taking the love his Dog self had, 24,000 years ago, very seriously and has caused a lot of issues for everyone.
Well, remember the fight between Kagura and Amata. Kagura said something implying that he wanted his, uh, Sylvie because they were destined, and Amata made a point of saying that he loves Mikono for who she is now and not who she used to be. I suppose what they are doing is drawing a parallel between a "good" reason to love someone and a "bad" reason. That goes regardless of the dog plot twist.

Amata didn't even know until ep 23 that he was Apollo himself. He hasn't been hung up over his own past life but over what he thought Mikono and Kagura's were. (Yeah, with Kagura being Amata that gets messed up, but Amata didn't know that.)

Maybe what we are getting as the true message of EVOL is "make your own fate". Fudo has been saying that to the supporting cast. He showed them that blank page in the book.
