It does work on Naoto (he was almost erased by Honoka)

And if you watch the anime closely you will see that the first encounter with Honoka it actually targeted and erased Shuichi's parents.

The only reason it stopped is because the memories of the event were erased by Elena, and honoka is trying to find out who and what she is.

But she is neither Honoka nor Aiko, just an abomination that should never have been brought into the world.

Its a case of the Came Back Wrong trope in action. Basically what you saw in Full Metal Alchemist when you try to perform human transmutation.
