Well, with my ex's family, it was more a matter of her looking a lot like her mom, so he resented her for it. I don't think my mom has ever asked my sister why she can't be more like me, although I know she's frustrated with my sister and her intellectual laziness.

But I digress.

I think Kirika's a sad person more than anything else. We never see her and Mei interact but for the one scene (their phone conversation in the film doesn't count, mainly because that version of her is a Disney villain). That said, I suspect there's more to it than Mei says.

I mean, it's obvious Kirika at least tries with Mei, hence the doll eye and Mei's phone; it's never obvious if Mei is ever willing to meet her in the middle. Mei doesn't like her mother because her mother isn't what Mei wants or needs, which is further exacerbated by what she did to her and her sister. Mei resents her mother and her dolls on some level, and I don't think Kirika quite gets that. Like I said, it's sad.
