True, but so far on screen and off there was only mention of kids attending the class and their older relatives dying. That's another thing that bugs me too is that the older relatives die with their class 3-3 relation and not just in the calamity of that year and often always before the younger the only exception being Takabayashi because he died before his grandparents died. And even if relatives in the class survive they are still at risk, such as Izumi's cousin dying a year and a half before Izumi. Who knows Sanae's brother might be next on the block in next year's calamity.
