Seconding this. I play both AA and UA, I love both, but this new changed kissing animations don't suit my AA playthrouh at all! I was going for a tragic romance, like my Tav noticed this change, but it's far too late. I'm not playing AA for a happy ending. I play it for the tragedy of this toxic and abusive relationship, as was intended by Larian's original vision. When I want soft happy smiles and consent, I play UA romance. These new animations make my Tav look like a completely different person.This is not my Tav anymore!

Now, I don't want Larian to spend their time on fixing these animations yet again. (Seriously, UA only got one new kiss in Patch 6 and they still spent time on AA AGAIN, instead of, you know, evening this out a bit? If Gale and Shadowheart got 8 kisses (4 normal + 4 final for Gale), it's not a big ask for UA to get the base 4 everyone else got. Seems odd to add several variants of the same event for Gale which only triggers ONCE in a playthrough, while leaving UA the only one with 1 new kiss?) I'm with OP: voting to make an option available for the player to be able to choose if their Tav is happy or afraid of AA.
