Although one could argue otherwise: Akiha being very young when she was separated from her mother; Aleida only acquired her fighting styles after her "conversion" etc.
This indeed make one appreciate the mystery surrounding Aleida. She is a Kagura-look-alike. That much is confirmed. If Aleida is indeed the brainwashed Kagura, then no doubt she would still have deep connection (via blood or not) with the Shishito sisters. Why would she appear in Akiha's dream otherwise? It still makes the Vader comparison valid, Aleida being the hope of the world that has fallen to be the right hand side of the dark side.
On the other hand, Aleida may as well be a Kagura clone. What is a better way to plant the seed of the doubt, fear and confusion into your enemies than letting them to fight their former leader?
Unless much more are revealed, we just don't know, do we?
To add one more confusing point, was Aleida able to enter Akiha's dreams, or was showing her face to Akiha just incidental?

I had a theory about Akiha's dreams though not much: Do visit the speculation thread, it has no spoilers beyond what was shown in the anime.
