You write: "And Haruka seems attached to Ayato for no reason. She seems almost to love him--but why? She didn't know him" and "There is nothing there for her to be emotional about when she does not even know who he is beyond the fact that he is 'the one.'" How can you think that - did you even watch the show? Their back-story is hidden at first, of course, but the hints start to build very quickly, and it is made explicit towards the end that before the Mulian war they were a couple, but by an unlucky chance the Tokyo Jupiter barrier separated them. She remembers, but he has been brainwashed (like all inhabitants of Tokyo) and doesn't remember her. The difference in ages, she is now 29 to his 17, also complicates things for her - as you'd expect - but in the end he discovers his love for her anew, which is what propels him into accepting Ixtli and retuning the world.
