As much as I found myself charmed by the earnest naivety of the Amata - Mikono relationship and others in the show, I find that it does drive a plot point home - as Crea said, these kids are young. They're inexperienced and awkward, they're not really in control of their feelings and actions in face of a strong force. It's dangerous. They can easily hurt themselves and loved ones. Their love is a passion that drives them to do great things but makes them irrational, crazy, putting them on the precipice of diaster. Which is precisely the problem when they're Elements in control of a Aquarion that runs on love - they have no control, but their love is also determines the fate of the world.

In this sense I expect Aquarion Evol to be almost a rite of passage story for the kids. They will grow up, strenghten their bonds and channel their passion into something stronger and more refined. But it's not something electric rings and darts will do. The kids will find their way.
