This is my conclusion as well.So we need to spend time with Hana, for many reasons but in particular because it will help Hana stop feeling so much hate towards everyone involved in keeping Hazou away from her, and we need to spend time with Mari, just to help reassure her that we do still care about her even after Hana returned. In time, hopefully, Mari will remember that she does actually have positive qualities and stop rationalizing herself into self-hate, and Hana will be able to put the pain of those two years behind her and, with luck, maybe even forgive Mari.
I do think Mari's mental health is potentially a concern even though she's retired and not in life or death danger any more, though. Her political role is a background one but very important, keeping Leaf held together, especially when Jiraiya is out of town. If she can't do that any more because she's a wreck, or worse she messes up really badly, that could be A Bad Thing.
