Yukito doesn't die. He transforms into a crow and goes back in time so that he could be with Misuzu through it all. This way, once it is too painful for Misuzu to be with him, he can still be with her and help her to enjoy being with her mother before she dies.
Then after Misuzu is dead, he resumes his human form.
