I just rewatched Ep 8 and 9, (most of the summer arc except the little bit at the end of Ep 7), and Kanna never mentioned anything about the beach.

I wasn't sure, but I didn't have time to go through the Summer arc and check. Your thoughts on that seem to be right then, and it still fits with my theory.

About the boy, the most obvious explanation is that he's the reincarnation of Yukito and Yukito alone. My idea was just something that occurred to me when I was thinking about Kanna and all of that stuff. But I'm going to choose to believe it for now, unless I'm proven wrong by the KEY's story writers, like you say. ^^;

To be honest though, I don't know that I'd want a concrete answer to all of this. I like endings that are open to interpretation, at least when they're done well. And this is done very well, IMO.
