Well, from start it, you're not supposed to analyze the character in order to figure out the motivations behind their actions. Rather, the motivations are supposed to be clear enough so that you can understand their actions without even thinking about it.

For example, Yuma has been abused by her parents. So, when she demonstrates an inferiority complex and also clings to the first person who treats her with kindness (in this case Kyoko) you can neatly understand why she behaves like that without even thinking about it. Plus, because you know why she acts the way she does, and where her character traits come from, you can relate to her in a way you would never be able to do with Madoka, a character you need to analyze in other to understand her actions, which defeats the purpose to begin with.
