Frankly, I think this is a lot more thought than Kawamori & Co. would put into it.
And anyway it doesn't answer my question:
why can he transform and what triggers it, or does he do it randomly? Does he do it at will? Which one is his real form? Can anyone else do something like this? There wasn't anything like this in the first series (well, Rena sometimes saw Apollo as a canine but that was just Rena and her weirdo-vision, he wasn't really a werewolf).

Why does he decide to act like Gen? Dunno.

I see where you're coming from but I can't see
Touma of all people (Angels) doing that. ^^;; I mean, aside of what I said above, do you think Touma would ever allow any reincarnation of Celiane anywhere near hisss preciousss? Never mind nurturing and teaching her. Plus, if Touma had the Solar Wings at his disposal you bet Vega would be Shadow Angel Paradise by now.
But I guess anything is possible... I just don't think this idea is compatible with Touma's personality and his motivations.
