Fate works in strange ways. Even though 2 powerful yokais, Miko and Shiori, wanted young Hinako to live well and be happy, they were unable to protect young Hinako and her family from the accident. :(

To a certain extent, Shiori did learn from her experience with the abandoned girl. She learned that not every human craved immortality, so instead of offering her flesh to young Hinako, she only gave her blood, which only provided minor blessing / protection. Unfortunately, as things turned out, Hinako felt that being the only survivor was a curse instead.

I know the chances are slim, but I want to see the Hinako today regain her cute and cheerful personality, even if just for a bit.

Lastly, I wonder whether the girl who gained immortality by eating Shiori's flesh survived.

I feel like parts of Hinako's younger personality are still with her just morphed by her expereinces which would've happened even without her family tragedy. We see her kindness at wanting to protect Miko and not wanting to make her feel unhappy. We see her glad to see Miko and Shiori getting closer to each other too.

Anyways from the bench scene where Shiori comforts Hinako on her scars saying her looks won't change her feelings I feel like it's not too much of a stretch to say Shiori has faith that whatever type of person Hinako will become she will still love her.
