>Was that really for the best? Giving up on city life like that? Seemed like getting out of the boonies was a big deal to her, so is it really okay to give up on her hopes and dreams? After all, the stuff that made her decide to give up on city life was all in her head.
I don't think so. It was her dream after all. I could understand a girl paralysed from the waist, down due to an unfortunate accident, giving up on any sports or dance-related dreams but Miko's reasons for abandoning her dreams were purely of a psychological nature and that's why her failure feels unsatisfactory to me.
I feel that if Yoshio had been a bit more considerate of Miko and the nature of her transition, it could've worked. The episode where she was selling samples was tough for her but I considered that to be a good push beyond her comfort zone. Pushing her into becoming an idol, however? That had predictable results. It was far too much, far too soon. I feel like if Yoshio had just been a bit more understanding and patient and pushed Miko through a more gradual transition, Miko could've matured into someone capable of doing the things Yoshio desired but instead, Yoshio, blinded by his own ambition (albeit a selfless one), proceeds to push Miko too far, ultimately destroying the little will she had.
Also, if you pay attention to the 4-komas at the end of the final four episodes, you'll realise that this is what she's like after the mind-break. She's always hungry and she has that dead look in her eyes. I believe deep down, she still wants that dream. The desire's there. It's just that her will was crushed.

>Machi's complex got the best of her and all of the strain from trying so hard to fight it left her tramatised.
I disagree. I think she tried to do (or rather, was pushed into doing) too much at once.
