They could have "broke" her better, I suppose, but I don't think I've ever seen that kind of breakdown done especially well. I had a similar reaction to Kotomi's self-destruction in Clannad.
The core of the arc's emotion should come next week. More important to me was the establishment, without embellishment, of some of the romantically-tinged scenes in the arc. They downplayed the romantic aspect without eliminating it and that's really all I can ask for in this kind of a series.
All in all, a great episode that builds my faith in this adaptation.
