speech that is markedly disorganized (not at the first glance, but when you think how she sounds to somebody who is not seeing ghosts) - maybe
behavior that is markedly disorganized or catatonic (not obvious because of situation, but present, at least in disorganized part) - maybe
Also, common additional symptoms: impaired attention, rapidly changing mood, impaired memory for recent events.
She needs help. Debriefing and - in longer term - psychotherapy. The good thing is symptoms in Brief Psychotic Disorder tend do disappear on their own within two weeks at most.

That's what I'm hoping they're trying to portray. One can always argue about whether they portrayed it well or not.... or whether it was a good idea to portray it Mirai's point-of-view rather than Mari's (our perspective).
