If that is what Alto's thinking, then he's just selfishly using "Ranka's sake" as an excuse to kill her, despite her own wishes to live, even to live with him. In this case, he is a coward and a hypocrite. The second, which is reaffirmed by the theme of the series and by Alto's brother and Klan's words, is that he simply wants to protect but his method is really the wrong way to do it. He can't protect something by destroying something else. That is not what love means. Thus, what Klan wants to tell Alto in this episode is not referring to Alto's romantic love, but his misguided methods.
Yeah you're right: Alto can't destroy the bugs to protect his beloved ones! He must love the bugs and if some millions of people die in the process of reaching such love it's too bad, but those sacrifices are necessary for reaching the "universal love".... AS IF!!!
It's easy to fill a mouth with sweet words like love and such for people who isn't involved in wars directly: try stating your reasonment to those people and see what they answer... if you're still alive to tell about the answer of course!
I hope the bugs will get a nice fold bomb suppository by the end of the series becoming space dust.
