Personally, I don't think Rita is being manipulative or wrong in any way but neither do I think someone should have to be obliged to consider the rest of the world regarding whether she wants to make use of her talents. The way I see it, if you're having to pressure someone to consider what the rest of the world wants then you've already lost. Great talent should never be pressured or forced out of someone because then the product will just be artificial. But it really depends on what you're sacrificing and what you're gaining so it's very situational. The problem with Shiina's case is that we don't know what she's thinking so we can't tell if she is actually factoring her fans or the rest of the world, or if she ever did anyway. My assumption is that the reason she doesn't want to go back to London to reach her full potential is because she values her friends more. I can't see anything wrong with that.
