Is D and Kumoko the same person?
While Shiraori and Kumoko are indeed the same person, she is, in fact, not the reincarnation of Wakaba Hiiro. In reality, Wakaba Hiiro was an alternate identity assumed by D to escape her duties as the manager of the Underworld and play at being a normal high-school student.
Is Kumoko and Ariel the same?
As observed, Ariel has gained several of Kumoko's personality traits upon merging with her Parallel Mind, effectively gaining the same quirky, hyperactive and somewhat childish tendencies of Kumoko.
Is wakaba a Kumoko?
It was here revealed to the readers, that Kumoko was not the real Wakaba Hiiro. She only took on her appearance and memories due to D's intervention at the beginning of the story.
Did Kumoko become human?
This is not solely the fault of the anime -- in the original source material, Kumoko does indeed receive a human form, and in every iteration it's to communicate with humans, despite her having the Telepathy skill.
