Also, I don't remember which episode it was in, but didn't Kanna want to go to the beach as well? I thought that was why Misuzu wanted to play at the beach, because she's a part of Kanna, rather than the it being a reincarnation of Kanna wanting to because of Misuzu's memories at the end.

It's possible to apply a similar train of thought to the boy, but there's less reason to do so. It would be nice to think though, that there's something of Ryuuya, and everyone who struggled for Kanna's sake after him, in that boy who walks off holding her hand at the end of the series.

Well, it seems liked I missed a scene.

I don't think Kanna actually wanted to go play at the beach, since she never even heard of the ocean until shortly before she was shot at/curse on. Even then she only imagine what life would be like living by the ocean, which is a different thought from wanting to play on the beach. 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 suppose my reasoning behind who the boy is is not quite concrete. However, since Yukito was also affected by the curse, when he got that slash in Ep 7, I thought that maybe breaking the curse for Kanna may have some effect on him too (even as Sora). But your explaination is good too; its hard to really make sense of the ending (someone go ask the story writers from KEY).
