It toke +/-30 episodes of character development for Kira to finally come to the conclusion that war sucks and that he didn't particularly enjoy killing people if he can avoid it. Kio on the other hand is like kid who watched a anti-war movie for the first time and comes to the conclusion that war is bad and we should all stop fighting.

The big difference between Kira and Kio for me right now is that when it came to Kira it never felt like there was any doubt that the viewer was expected to side wholeheartedly with his ideals and that his method of doing things was in all cases the exact and preferred method that ought to be used for dealing with these situations and that anyone who disagreed with him was in the wrong. In Kio's case though that really hasn't been the case as has been shown with Fram and Girard's outright rejection of the idea that they can all just have a sit down talk in the middle of a conflict that has all but progressed beyond the point of no return. For this reason among others I don't think we've seen the end of Kio's finding his role in all of this.
