Akemi made her feel things she probably hasn't felt for a long time - if not love at least a very deep affection for some one. Akemi then goes and dies on her. Not only dies but makes Xena play a big role in her death. Xena perhaps by the time Sin Trade happens has thought about this and begins perhaps to even hate Akemi for using her and then abandoning her. When Anakin comes along Xena may try to recreat the same relationship she had with Akemi but Anakin rejects her thus destroying another part of Xena's humanity. Alti of course knows all about Akemi and used Anakin to deepen the wounds Akemi caused and turn Xena even more to the dark. Of course once Xena has more or less reformed she realizes that Akemi had to what she did to avenge her family. Xena no longer is burden by unreasonable hate and self-pity so 35 years later she is more than willing to help Akemi.
