[Spoilers] I loved this series, but after reading the discussion threads, I still have a few questions.

Spoilers ahead. I'm putting this extra sentence here so you know to back out now if you want.

I've only watched the series twice over, so I might still have missed something.


1. When Yukito makes his wish by Misuzu's bedside, what happens to him? Is he killed by the curse, or does something else happen?

2. My main question: Sora wasn't in the series before the episode where he was introduced. Or, at least, he wasn't doing the things we see him do in future episodes. What exactly happens with the timeline of the story, in this case? Does Yukito's wish more-or-less let him "try again"? It's evident that if Sora wasn't there, Misuzu would never have made it past the rainy day of the festival. Did Yukito's wish let him save Misuzu by introducing Sora and "re-doing" the whole thing?

I'm mostly confused about this because in the scene where Yukito makes his wish, Misuzu gets up and wonders where he went -- and Sora isn't there at that point. Does that timeline get "cancelled", as such, or... what? If it hadn't shown Misuzu getting up, I would've assumed Yukito had altered history to introduce Sora and save Misuzu. Is this what happened, or am I missing something?

1. Most likely he was killed by a curse or he went back in time and turning him into a crow(Referring to the 2nd answer). But I think it's the latter.

2. I'm pretty sure there is something involves about timeloop with Yukito as a crow. Therefore, there are 2 Yukito in the 2nd world but Yukito(Crow) forgot the memories from the 1st world until the other Yukito(Human) disappeared.

Though the purpose of Yukito being a crow and/or having a timeloop is beyond me at the moment. I may answer that later if I remember it.

As far as I believe, Yukito still wanted to be with Misuzu but he can't because I bet he thought of himself that getting near of her makes Misuzu's pain worse. So as he wished, he turned into a crow and went back in time.

Thanks. It's a confusing plot but I think I understand it now.
