Okay not introductions necessary we all know what we came here for! All the images I got them directly from Vivinos Patreon.

Okay, so the teaser that released today is actually this one movie that our favourite dorks are watching. From what we can se in the comic they are all students from an art school and belong to different departments.

We dont know how old they are but we DO KNOW that the age diffrence between them changed.

Luka is 30 in Alien Stage and Hyuna 27. Their age difference in ALNST is of 3 years. But in ZOMST they are in the same year wich can mean three things.

In ZOMST they were born the same year

In the Anak Art school the year you are doesnt depend on your age, like in the same UNI class you could have 45 y.o in the first year and 24 y.o in the last one

Or both

With Hyuna and Luka specifically I dont think the change is that significant, their roles as the eldest among the main cast doesnt change. Even if the age difference between them and the rest of the cast is much lower

BUT DO YOU KNOW WHAT DID CHANGE??? In ALSNT

Sua was 23

Mizi and Ivan 22

And Till 21

BUT IN ZOMST SUA AND IVAN ARE BOTH 2ND YEARS, WHILE MIZI AND TILL ARE 1ST YEARS

Wich once again can mean those 3 things. Their ages changed, their ages doesnt mean anything rescpect wich year they are in the school or both.

I personally think that the most probable one is that their ages changed. Specifically because of Hyuna and Luka but well have to see.

Next Mizi starts reading the synopsis of the movie and she mentiones that the virus makes GEMSTONES grow inside the body, and in the teaser we see examples of this

Wich remind me of this series of official art

AND the jewel hearts in KARMA that bleed black

Both the gemstone zombie thing and the gems and injuries we see in Sua in the teaser have to be connected somehow because they are too similar to not have some meaning.

ILL REMIND YOU THAT THE WE KNEW THAT TILL WOULD LIVE PRESICETLY BECAUSE OF CLUES GIVEN IN OFFICIAL ART AND WE WERE RIGHT. its just that right now i dont know what could it mean.

Next we have Till and Sua blushing while listening to Mizi´s dramatic reading of the synopsis.

I really really really hope we can move on from Till´s crush on Mizi, that part of his arc was already developed and in the comic we got last year he said that the childish love he had for her faded long ago. Given what he says next about asking for an autograph and that he is in the film and theather department it could just be him being exited about the arts he loves. We know that he has always been a very passionate artist so this doesnt necesarilly mean that in this new story we will start again with a crush on Mizi, i hope.

AND YES HE HAS A SCENE WHERE HE LOOKS AT MIZI FROM BEHIND HER BUT LOOK AT THE CONTEXT AND WHAT HE IS THINKING!

First he is centered about getting an autograph, not drawing her, not admiring her beauty, not writting a song for her. He is thinking that she is a good performer and as a theather kid he sees potential and wants an autograph.

Hyuna talks about how its a cult movie and and how could she find it, then Till remembers his teacher talking about how expensive that movie is and he is thinking about why Mizi would go far enought to rent the blue ray of that movie. So, for what we know getting access to that movie is hard and Till finds odd that Mizi would go throught that trouble.

The only thing I really can think off about this is the easiest one. This is a reincarnation or an alternative Universe and Mizi remembers Alien Stage and that movie has something to do with that. Not sure why or how.

Ivan and Till´s dynamic seem to be the same, Ivan being annoying and clingy and Till being a tsundere about it while implicently showing how normal is for him to have Ivan clinging to him.

WHAT I DO FIND EXTRANGE IS MIZI AND SUA´S DYNAMIC

At first nothings strange. Sua is blusing looking at Mizi perform, Mizi is overdramatic and hugs Sua and Sua blushes. Our favourite lesbians in their natural enviroment.

BUT WHATS EXTRANGE IS WHAT HAPPENS NEXT

I have no idea why Sua is making that face. I checked and she isnt looking at Till and Ivan that are right next to them, Luka´s entrance is later and Hyuna´s question too.

In the next panel she complains about Mizi performing loudly and we know Sua is easy to scare but she doesnt look scared. She looks annoyed, or angry, shes puting her hair behind her ear and the only person she could be looking at from that angle is Mizi, but i dont think she is looking at her.

I have no idea why Sua looks like that. Maybe is my autistic ass missing something but for now is a mystery.

Next Luka arrives, Ivan hides his snacks from him (SUSPICIOUS, but probably because of the thing that he is a from the model department and has to do with the diet Ivan should be following I guess) and Till thinks that his seat is the best one while looking up and then behaving like "nope nothing to coment here" From the angle of his head and Mizis dialoge I dont think he is looking at her but he is looking in Ivans direction. he could be talking about the spot with best view of the movie but I think hes talking about looking at Ivan. And I think that because he didnt repress himself about being a movie fanboy in the comic before but here he is trying to appear unbothered.

It could also be that he is looking at both Ivan and Mizi and thats why he thinks he is lucky about his seat, we know he is a Biking after all.

Luka apparently told them he couldnt go to watch the movie with them and seems to have a tense realtionship with Hyuna.

But it doesnt seem to be that serious. I mean definetly is nothing as dramatic as killing your twin.

Luka still has purple fingers so the fact that he is fragile and has health issues seems to be the same as in ALSNT.

Hyuna is cold to him and tries to ignore him but its clear that she cant and looks at him before making Till play the movie.

We dont have much info but I came up with three options.

Hyuna being cold to Luka has somthing to do with the fact that he said he couldnt go and they fought over it or that same conversation derivated on a fight over another topic

2. Hyuna is there to watch the movie precicely because Luka said he couldnt go. Given that Luka said he went to see Hyuna I think this seems to be the case.

3. The reason why Hyuna is cold to him has nothign to do with the fact that Luka could or couldnt go to see the movie.

And the last thing I find worth mentioning is Ivan calling Sua an Otaku for whatever reason canalizing the annoying little brother he has always been.

So after watching the teaser and reading the new comic, I feel like a lot of people are misunderstanding what is actually happening.

Zombie Stage is a movie that the Anakt Arts High School's movie club is watching.

My theory is that from now on we will get MV's based on different movie genres/tropes, with the movie club members inserted into the roles of the characters.

This does make me wonder if Alien Stage is also just a movie in this AU.

By that I don't mean Alien Stage wasn't real, it just happens to be fictional in this specific AU.
