I don't really care about Aina personally. She voluntarily left Tsunku-town...she's just some rando to me now. Having said that, her life, life in general, isn't a scripted reality show. It doesn't always follow a direct narrative where outside people spying in can make sense of it. It's just like Kago or Fukuda Asuka. When they show up in the newspaper now and again, after screwing up, falling from grace, backtracking, striking blindly and making clumsy comeback attempts, of course it's going to look all crazy. That's the way b-listers wind up in the media in the first place. People with smooth orderly logical lives don't usually make the news to begin with. Girl gets good marks in school, goes to college, becomes a vet, gets married, has two kids. Nobody cares about that.
In comparison, pro celebs are able to massage their public images through managers keeping them on track, and publicity departments smoothing out all the rough edges. I mean, Michishige has been able to pretty much completely stay out of the public eye for a whole year. That's not just her not doing anything, that's people working behind the scenes to make sure there's nothing to report and nobody reporting it until it's time to announce something which looks planned and purposeful. Aina doesn't have that kind of support structure.
