One minor correction - the box contain’s Kubo’s fingers. Kubo is the box maker/Onbako-sama’s son, and manipulated his terrified father into starting the cult.

Here’s what i think. You may be on too something with kanako being the daughter of kubo and yoko, but from what i gather is the reason they cast him away was because kubo and yoko are brother and sister and there was incest involved. Which may also be the reason why that it was kubo and yoko’s mother who was trying to strangle kanako and telling her to die, because she was born out of incest. So the story that the lawyer Masuoka told to Enokizu about kanako’s father dying in the war was also farce. Although im still not sure where the whole psychic and praying to boxes to read the contents comes into play as of yet. Also i think instead of kanako commting suicide it was yoriko who had pushed kanako because she though she was decaying and she tryed to kill her so that she would be her next life. After all she had no problem with dying when kanako was trying to strangle her. Kubo saw her do it and tryed to save her. I also think that yoko and kubo are working together with mimasaka and kanako was never taken from the hospital, she is still there…somewhere.

One mystery remains,what happened to Kanako.
Really I though she was dismembered and stuffed into boxes like we saw her scene in ep4,but it seems there’s more to it,I think Kubo is hiding Kanako alive and left her to make her his final masterpiece or something,or to be able to be with her forever whatever that means,well we don’t know how serial killer mind works(well maybe her arm and legs got cut off so he could transport her easier in some big box).
Well I don’t know if it’s possible but maybe Kanako is Kubo and Yoko daughter,that would explain this whole murder case,maybe Kubo was killing daughters of families involved in box cult(like Yoriko’s mother) to make vengeance for that Yuko family as heads of Box cult throw him away as a father and didn’t let him to see his daughter.
He got insane in the meantime and we have results of almost perfect planned mass killing crime.
But I may be wrong,but I don’t remember that anything was mentioned about Kanako father.
As for train scene in ep1 I think that maybe Kanako wanted to commit suicide due she saw her body is aging(pimple with her beliefs was rather a start of her body death),for my understanding if a person would drop under the train she would be killed instantly,and it seems Kanako got only hit by a slowing train she didn’t fall directly under it,that’s why I’m thinking that maybe Kubo tried to save her and he managed to grasp her a little so she wouldn’t be killed then,which Yoriko interpreted in different way.
