This is what I think Okada/Kawamori are aiming for:
The first two episodes makes it clear that Amata and Mikono like one another, and are romantically interested in one another.
But then, time and time again, their attempts to move forward with a romance is interrupted by Kagura launching an attack to try and steal Mikono away, Zessica teasing Amata, or something else.
I think that the plan is for viewers to go...
Viewer X: Poor Amata and Mikono! Every time they try to forward their romance, something has to come and get in the way!
Viewer Y: Agreed. Why, it's like fate itself is against Amata/Mikono!
Viewer X: That seems to fit with all of this imagery surrounding Kagura and Mikono...
Viewer Y: But look! Amata now realizes it, and he's going to fight fate! Go Amata go!
That might be a tad simplistic, but I think this is the general idea behind the writing here.
