My current understanding of how the time loop works, using the point of view of Maya Prime because most of what we know comes from her info :
It kinda bugged me that the start of the game does not correspond to how resets work later. Everyone thinks of Akira as an upstanding teacher, and Maya tells us instantly that we've been isekai'd. She knows that something is different about the last reset. I know the common theory is that Akira offed himself last time, but why does everyone's memory get reset instead of only his ? So I tried to come up with a good explanation.
Anyway, this brings me to the now very common theory that Ami is a secret loop traveler. There's a lot of hints that were given already so I won't go long on that, but one I particularly noticed and I hope was part of the setup, is that Ami supposedly does not immediately remember her Madoka cosplay (from the previous year). It's stated that Ami's favorite thing not named Akira is magical girl anime, so you'd think that would be hard to forget, right ? Unless you had hundred of other halloweens since, that is. (PS: Homura cosplay would fit Maya to a T)
So I tried to come up with a couple theories on why and how that would be the case, I'll name them after another japanese fiction that would resemble them in how they play out :
Or this could be just a gigantic red herring all along, and that would be very cruel.
