On the first sentence, I manually lookup a word.
On the second sentence, Yomichan looks up the first word automatically (Not as I would intend it to do)
On the third sentence, Yomichan proceeds as it should, not looking up any words until specified.
The sentence parsing feature is actually added on top of the original word lookup feature on the search page or native popup. What you're seeing is Yomichan trying to find a word from the beginning of the input string in each case, just with the first third sentences starting with a "「" that isn't a word in the installed dictionaries.
I'm not sure if there's much demand for disabling automatical lookup from the beginning of the input (I could be wrong), but I've thought that it would be less confusing if the result was highlighted so that you'd have a visual cue where the results came from.

Ohh, I see now. I'm reading a visual novel so it has the Japanese quotes in there.
Yeah I don't really care for the automatic lookup. I'd rather it not show me random words being looked up at the beginning of each sentence, so that I can look it up for specific words I need to lookup. Otherwise it's unneeded bloat and potentially giving me too passive of an experience by translating the first word of each sentence. I have to avert my eyes a bit.
Ok, well as a quick workaround if you can modify the settings or source code of the software that you use to copy the visual novel text to the clipboard, you could add some character to the beginning of each line so that it would "mute" the automatic lookups. A potential issue with this approach is that anything you previously had looked up before a new line comes will be lost, but that would have happened anyway.
