Personally, I think the explanation is that the writers realized that they didn't have the material for a love line with regular characters and didn't have the means to cast popular singers/extra models. But this just confirms my idea that the plot and characters change as the shooting progresses. Actually, the writers of the riders themselves have repeatedly admitted this, so I basically don?t understand what the dispute is about.

I?m not sure the comparison to Otoya really works here at all considering that being flirtatious & a lady?s man is sorta Otoya?s whole thing early on plus his goal through out most of Kiva is to earn the love of a Woman so him being flirty most of the time makes perfect sense. This doesn?t apply to Ace though, his primary goal throughout the entirety of Geats is to find his mother, plus I?d argue his defining traits as a character is that he?s a show off, a trickster, & a liar which remain consistent throughout the entire show off (the flirting was more so a side effect of Ace?s cockiness rather than being a key aspect of his character like with Otoya). So I think the idea that he flirted 2-3 times so he has to do it most of the time to be a consistent character doesn?t make much sense at all.
