She never said why she left home, did she...
I thought it was because her parents/guardians thought she was a burden, her step-brother was a bully, and her step-sister was too controlling. In the manga it was implied that she spent as much time as she could on the run.
I only saw the anime, but wow that's pretty dark.
The anime basically turned one instance of her running away into a much bigger deal than it was in the original story. Surprisingly, Torako's home life, despite its darkness, only seems to get mentioned in passing. Usually only on occasions when she's crashing at someone else's house or seeing how far away from town she can travel with Suzu.
The step brother and sister, at least, eventually turn out to really care about her in their own, very weird, ways. They both get downright scary when they think she might be in actual danger.
