A virus?
I had a virus once that made me trip headfirst and then made my umbrella fall exactly parallel to my staircase and impale me in the neck. Got over it with some tylenol and a couple days' rest, though.
I was talking about amnesia.

...and I still think there is no supernatural.
Also, what do you think is the reason for the widespread amnesia? It's not like they don't remember only curse-related things so I'm pretty sure it's not supernatural in origin. So what is it?
A virus?
Bacteria?
Something in the water?
At the end it will turn out the entire town is made out of loons separated from the rest of the world?

Sorry but, if you've been paying attention to the show you'd know that everytime someone gets close to detailing the curse, someone dies ( Like how the wind just started blowing hard once Matsunada started talking about what he left in the class, or how the nurse died before she could reveal Misaki )
That means it's supernatural no matter how you think of it. It's no coincidence people just up and die before they can get close to the truth.
Dame da! Zen zen dame da!
The killings can be very well explained by the human culprit who tries to do their best to make it appear to be a curse.
Curse killing people who try to talk about "non-existent" person explanation makes no sense since if that was true all the main cast would long be dead.
The elevator was probably sabotaged.
The wind didn't blow when he actually told them about it a minute later. Besides, the "curse" should be smart enough to know that wind is not the best way to silence people. Thus, I call coincidence at the wind.
The real mystery is why that extra drowned.
We saw him run enthusiastically into the water. Then, after swimming far away he dived, the resurfaced, turned back and waved. Then he swum some more and drowned.
What if someone, say, another diver, pulled him down from the water until he drowned? Well, it does seem a little unreal, but at this point it makes more sense then curse&magic. The main problem with this theory is that drowning a person usually takes more time then few seconds.
Or did he drown?
When he was run over by a boat, he had both his eyes and mouth opened. He could have been conscious.
What if he didn't drown but was just paralyzed? Say....the diver injected him with something under the water.
No-there could have been no diver at all. He might have eaten something prior to walling into the water(like, a medicine), or smelled something poisonous(poison in the towel anyone?) or get injected with something by someone while asleep. This theory would mean that the culprit, or one of the culprits, was on the beach with them.
But then, the explanation can be much simpler then that. Everyone seems to be suffering from strong amnesia and he was ill before. What if because of all this he forgot to put away an electronic device, say, a cell-phone and got electrocuted? That would explain the paralysis and would mean he was still alive when he was killed by the boat.
See? There are many possible explanations other then "it was the Golden witch Beatoriche!"
Read the novel. End of argument.
Well, if supernatural is how it really is then well..it's sorta disappointing. That entire "curse" thing is dumb.
But, I'm not going to read the novel(due to lazy) and I'm not going to believe that it's the supernatural unless I'm shown direct evidence for it. So far, everything that happened could be explained by coincidence and human actions. Besides..if it is ghosts and curse..then why would the ghosts and curses, things unbound by the laws of space, kill people with the scientifically possible methods accessible to humans?
It's a curse. Believe me, I've tried linking logic with all the deaths but keep this in mind:
