MM has frequent single recordings, music videos, constantly touring, events, magazine interviews, goods photoshoots, etc.

Come on, of course I know Kenshuusei is less busy than MM. I think we've described them as more of an after school club/extracurricular activity once/twice around here.
I never argued about the amount of trainings/activities they got in the first place, actually. The part you quoted was about the types of training they got. My point was there's not a significant amount of differences to it that would have an effect as profound as changing one's way of thinking.

To address your point, I don't see how her would-be busier time in MM necessarily means a good thing for her.
Isn't what she wrote on her blog pretty much amounts to self-esteem/confidence issues? One could argue that having her do all those things repeatedly could help her become more familiar and comfortable with it but on the flipside it could just as easily overwhelm her past her breaking point even sooner. That's one of the unknowns I avoid talking about in my last post actually.
Anyway, shouldn't the same effect be achieved through her time in Kenshuusei and indies J=J too? In fact it's been argued that is the one of the very purpose of having a Kenshuusei at all, no?

All my ramblings on this subject mostly are hypothetical and conjecture anyhow but I think(hope) I've sufficiently explained my reasoning.
Yes, she will have different experiences if she passed the 9th gen audition. Yes, those experiences will affect her differently than her time in Kenshuusei+J=J. Given what we know of her issues she wrote in her blog, would those (imo) slightly different but ultimately more intense experiences be enough to offset the influences from her other, more significant environments that shaped her way of thinking? If anything it compounds the issue imo so no, I don't think so.

:whistling: Butting in:

If she did pass the 9th generation audition and got into MM: Maybe she might become insecure about her singing, maybe she wouldnt, but as someone mentioned earlier it probably would've been magnified because then, most likely, more people would have praised her. That, or because more people praised her she might have felt more content. Her family and friends were pretty supportive (from what it sounds) on her being an idol, so it really comes down to her own pressure to become a better singer (and in a way, the fans who may or may not praise her for her singing).

In any case, it really would have been a different environment for her. Is it THAT different? Maybe. Does that mean different outcome? Maybe. Will we actually know unless we were Aina herself, know Aina personally, or have a fully mapped out explanation and description of how she feels/felt? Probably not. Though, there's also the chance that she probably wouldn't know either if she would've made the same decision, because as we established, it IS a different scenario. Though definitely, she would have the "best guess/most likely outcome" at it since 1) She knows herself better than anyone (most likely o.O) and 2) she has actually seen the workings within H!P and maybe even MM itself.

Also, as Sohee said, there's most likely more than one reason, though her own doubt of her abilities would be a big reason.
