Comment by LazyButLazy on Kimi wa Yotsuba no Clover - Chapter 26

@LazyButLazy  

my conclusion: 
As of this moment I personally believe that either the main character or the Male lead from a different timeline is the real mastermind and this is some sort of time loop where they sabotage Male Lead's life to this moment so that they reach the ending they have in that other timeline, since this story works with time travel and the four leafed clover has been a symbol representing the MCs. Also that "Clover" always gives instructions or manipulats their target to taking certain actions but doesn't react much when a dire situation arises, which makes me think they kind of let things happen, as if they know how they will unfold. Like when the wire was cut "Clover" said to check out the wire outside and reacted with Ah I see when they saw the wire being cut, obviously tempered with. It's as if they knew from the beginning something was off with the wire and made the sister leave her room on purpose...but I don't know, would be embarrassing if this was read in too much, anyways, that's why I thought it could be possible. 

Another theory would be that either their other girl childhood friend or another third party that isn't very noticeable has a grudge against Male lead since back in their childhood days and is actually also somewhat involved in their clover gifting story. 

I honestly have no idea who the real mastermind could be as of right now but I'm very invested in this manga and can' wait for the next chapter!

@LazyButLazy   yeah I 100% agree with u but maybe the clover guy isn't a time traveler he just gets reset with her and remembers what happened and for the other childhood friend girl could maybe have liked our mc but got jealous tbh I'm prob wrong but just a theory for fun yk

@LazyButLazy maybe 20:15 is when Ushi died
