I agree I found Leafa x Kirito somewhat incestuous given that Leafa had a crush on Kirito before she found out they weren't actual siblings but it just came to mind.

Listening to the song Boop it sounds as if Nora and Ren have a similar though relationship though a little more honest in that they were raised together but always knew they weren't related which makes it less squick.

Whilst people interpret things differently the actual novels are slightly better on the Romance thing in that there isn't really romantic feelings between Liz or Silica and Kirito but more a combination loneliness and teenage hormones though it's noticeable that in the novels Asuna didn't really get much characterisation until Mothers Rosario which doesn't help.
