>but I was trying to ask if hatsu messes with your AAP in a bad way.
I see.
>Or are the aura pools for Ko, Ryu, and similar techniques completely separate from the aura used for a Hatsu?
Story seems to say no. It'a all one resource and the only difference is how much aura you can output vs how much you have in reserve. Ko, Ren, Ken, Gyo, Hatsu, etc all just increase overall aura consumption when used in tandem. And if you are good at aura control you can mitigate some of this cost.
