About Reiko and Ritsuko, better to read the manga's prologue to understand of Ritsuko's death. it's only two chapters

Then about Reiko, she really was a teacher of class 3, read the manga. the ending explains everything, its 20 ch. total

I only read the manga so maybe it must be different to the anime. But there is a bit of a misunderstanding of the curse, I think.

From what I understood...

26 years ago, a kid named Misaki who was loved by everyone. On his third year he died, everyone was devestated so when one suddenly suggedted that "He is still here" Everyone believed it and acted like he was still there, no one dared face the truth, but on the day of graduation he appeared on the picture. This is the year that Ritsuko, Kouichi's mother, was a student. Chibiki sensei thought there was no harm to act the way the students did. Nothing happened, no one died, only Misaki.

In a new school term, a desk was missing. Then there was a death once a month. On the day of graduation the teacher told Chibiki sensei this: "An was mixed into the class, he vanished right after graduation, if not, someone wil notice". and memories disappear (though there was an inclination that the teacher died).

So this tradition was passed down, because in this class there always seem to be a ghost that does not know that it is dead, and it is anyone that is associated to the class as long as it has a 2 generation gap in between any higher does not count. Altering everyone's memories of them, so the game was like , the solution is that if you pick the right person then nothing will happen and "memories disappear" after graduation, but if you don't pick the right person people starts dying.

Curse was not real until the next year. All cause Misaki was brought back to "life" by those that ignored his death, and bound to the classroom to continue the tradition no matter what.
