Here's a rough start, let me know if you can think of any I'm missing..

Himatsubushi
The thugs who've kidnapped the minister's grandson seem to be the earliest (chronologically) incarnation of them.

-Presuming they're not taking their orders directly from the Hinamizawa Families, what motives do the "Disaster" culprits have in keeping the Dam from being constructed?
-Does this imply an allegiance between them and the resistance? What further could this entail?
All you have to do is ask yourself, "What would the consequences have been of the dam finishing construction?" Well, the inhabitants of Hinamazawa would have scattered all over Japan.
Spoiler for Not really a revelation at this point:


Still there are two revelations in this episode:

Revelation 1: We now know how many plumbers there are. There are 19.

Revelation 2: Far more importantly, we now know why Rika says "nipa".

Makes me wish this wasn't the first Rika/Hanyuu afterword I got to hear in a language other than Finnish.
