I don't want you to end it with a misunderstanding, so in round six, Ivan sacrificed for the till because Ivan loves the till. Ivan intentionally committed violence against the till on stage to save the unmotivated till thinking mizi was dead. You seem to have misunderstood that Ivan did it to get more points and so on. And this alien stage is about aliens petting humans and putting them on stage for alien entertainment.

Ivan sacrificed himself, Till can live without Ivan, but Ivan can't live without Till.

R6 "He's doing it to get more points" XD
Pretty much the contrary. Till stops singing so Ivan attacks him (the same way Mizi did, to get disqualified). He didnt hurt hit, as he could sing just after R6 without problem. The kiss is due to the stress of the moment, as Ivan knew he was going to die (and it's something he asked Till some time ago... creator's lore)

All of them all childhood friends. Some had more romantic feelings to the others.

Since "All-in" we are in still in the same day, maybe just an hour between R6&R7

In round 5 the song that Luka was singing was him mocking and making fun of Mizi and Sua's love, he was saying things like "Make me your God" and stuff like that and if you go back to round 1 Mizi calls Sua her "Universe and her God". He was acting like Sua to mass with Mizi and make her crash out so he could win. And he doses the same thing to Till in round 7.

It’s to be expected to get people a little confused from the first watching, so I was but it gets a lot more clear as you rewatch the videos, and get to connect to dots regarding the lore and characters.

Alien Stage is a whole love square, not even triangle. The first two girls Mizi (pink hair) and Sua (black hair) where actually in love and on their stage performance were actually hoping they’d make a tie on the score, cuz they loved singing together. 🥲 but the score was with 1 point difference and that got Sua killed.
Till was in love with Mizi but he had no chance because Mizi was with Sua anyway.
Ivan was in love with Till but knew his love wouldn’t be received by Till 🥲

Ivan -> Till -> Mizi <-> Sua

You may have noticed their names were engraved onto their bodies, that’s as a mark for the alien experiments. Humans were not just pets but also conducted on all sorts of experiments, in which Luka is suspected to be actually artificially born and he killed of the other clones of his (you can see in Weige video). Due to this fact, it explains why he is so manipulative on the other participants, ha has no remorse and does not understand feelings.

Now explaining the relationship in between him and Hyuna (brown hair) - even the straight couple is doomed in Alien Stage lol -
Hyuna had a brother that you’ve seen him a little in videos but Luka killed him, I personally still don’t know the reason, it’s believed that he wanted Hyuna all for himself and her having a brother was not something he liked. He developed a toxic attachment to her that even he didn’t understand.

In Weige is a very short cut where it shows that she lost in the singing competition so she was meant to die but somehow she managed to escape and joined the rebellion. The rebellion’s “job” was to help and rescue all the close participants that they knew to save from death. It’s how Mizi managed to escape in Round 5 (Ruler Of My Heart)

Loved your reaction!!! It's as the comment said, Ivan sacrificed himself ;_; I literally cry every time I watch these videos, but also love when people react to them!

The whole videos, the whole show is so sad. I wish everyone survived.

Also, I think Luka's fingers coloration is a representation that his hands had been tinted with blood already, he has killed.

In Round 6(Cure) there's a version where the full song is there vocally w/ more harmony between the 2 and the final verse that was cut off by the video events, too. It's on their Studio Lico page if you want to hear it, along with the singers doing covers of other ALNST songs, like TIll's VA singing All-In, Ivan and TIll singing Round 1 song's 'My Clematis' and such.

For your information, Mizy(the pink hair girl) and Sua(the black hair girl) are in love with each other. Till is in love with Mizy, and Ivan is in love with Till. Sua sacrificed herself for Mizy, and Ivan sacrificed himself for Till. The aliens invaded the planet and gathered the human children for a musical hunger games. Ivan found it ridiculous that Sua sacrificed herself for Mizy, but he ended up doing it for Till, believing he wouldn't be affected because he doesn't love him, while it becomes clear at the end that Till is affected. Hyuna(the brune hair girl) is a rebel and escaped from the hunger games; she was friends with Luca.Hyuna was the best friend of Luca ,she had an brother but luca kill him .We see him in the flashback of Hyuna (the brune hair girl) protect Luca (the blond hair guy) because she still love Luca love Hyuna and she love him to.Hyuna save Mizy from the dead when she lose versus Luca.In different flashback and post Vivinos explain how Ivan fell in love with Till. In the end, we see that Till had at least some feelings for Ivan. I'm so sad he died but it was predictable.
THE DEATH LIST :
Sua the black hair girl
Ivan the black hair guy
Till(we don't now really but yes)the gray/white hair guy
Hyuna the brune hair girl

THE SURVIVALIST:
Luca the blonde hair guy
Mizy the pink hair girl

In Round 6, Ivan Isn't actually choking Till, He's just pretending so the aliens can shoot him for "harassing" Till, and Till can win. If Ivan was actually choking Till, Till would actually struggle and try to make him not choke him instead of just standing there. Hope This helped. ❤😊

Ivan has a separate solo song not on the list called Nowhere

oh that was unexpected! I never watched anything of alien stage on my own, but I sure saw a lot of people talk about it. all I knew about it is there's songs and everything turns out very bad and people cried over it lol

I kinda thought it's just songs without any actual narration except for the lyrics and just the performance, huh. it sure seems to be pretty dark from the beginning...

the visuals are so interesting, I'm kinda getting Promised Neverland vibes from these flashbacks of the characters when they were younger

disliked the vibes of that boy that was singing with the pink haired girl in round 5. he was acting quite nasty. and after the All-in episode he's just turning more and more confusing?? that lady with brown hair was soooo cool tho, I really liked her

oh yeah that moment with Ivan kissing Till. the one thing that I saw a tooon of times on twitter ahah. damn, gay people sure can't just say "I love you" and be happy in the media 🥲

I really don't feel that Luka boy but his voice is pretty good... all the voices are great, really. I didn't manage to like Luka even with them showing more about him, but that was surely tragic for him, I do feel bad... but he still doesn't feel right for me 😭

I also don't know what I was expecting exactly, but it wasn't that at all. it was very interesting to watch tho, especially with you! I'm not sure that I got everything that they tried to show and say through the songs and the visuals, I'm not the best with not straightforward narration, but it was still very intriguing

thank you for the reaction, and for all the episodes too! I really don't think that I would've watched alien stage on my own, but it was a very pleasant time with you <3

No Ivan sacrifice himself for save Till because he love Till

Hi! Just some clarifications. Aliens invaded earth a LONG time ago, so all the characters we see haven't been to earth. They're raised by different alien "sponsors" as pets, the aliens are sort of their "parents"---some nice and others abusive.
Alien stage is a program in the alien world where specific children (the characters we see) are trained from a young age in a "kindergarten" camp to participate in "Alien stage" - a sort of k-pop idol style competition-when they're older (we see the "PASS" in the beginning).

When preforming, whoever loses dies (usually shot). Most of the characters were aware of this, but Mizi, the pink haired main girl, was not. She was kept under the dark. Sua knew and willingly sacrificed herself in round 1 though.

Alien's can not produce the same vocal sounds as humans do so they find entertainment in their singing. And the thrill of competition to see who dies I guess, like some reality TV.

Hehe some fun facts (dont have to read):
- They all grew up in the same kindergarten, but Luka and Hyuna (brown haired girl in wiege and all-in) are older than the rest of the charas (27 and 30 yrs old), so they were in a different class. The rest of the characters are in their early 20s.

- Mizi had a nice alien sponsor who took care of her (you can see in MIZISUA).

- Sua's alien sponser treated her more like a doll, and already had her build up a fan-following (in alien world) from a young age. You can even see in MIZISUA shes dressed as a doll with no belongings and looks dead inside.

- Sua and Mizi are in love with each other + best friends. Mizi's dream was to sing on stage in a duet with Sua so thats why she looked so happy in round 1 (and obviously didn't know it was a death match). In round 1 you can see Sua's microphone away from her mouth compared to Mizi, which was deliberate in order to make her voice slightly more washed out compared to Mizi and lose.

- Till also grew up with them, hes in love with Mizi in an "idolization" way from a young age. Mizi sees him as a younger brother but they are close.

- In round 2, another reason we dont see the NPC opponent sing is that right when he was about to sing, Till smashed his living alien guitar (named freddie) to "shut him up" i guess and won by a landslide. Till is also constantly contained and restrained because he's a trouble maker.

- By the way, in round 6's flashback where Till is seen refusing to sing infront of his (very abusive) alien sponsers, its also because they told him to sing "My Clematis" in a way to mock him (since he's in love with Mizi).

- In round 6 also, its hard to notice since the lyric is still played, but Till stops singing. We can see he's very depressed in general, and him and Ivan are also somewhat best friends. He stops singing and Ivan notices that he's giving up, so he does the whole kiss choke thing. He didnt actually strangle him with force or anything, but did it so Till could win and we saw in round 5 that physical violence = disqualification. Btw, in alien world kissing isnt really a known thing. In their world cheek-kissing was a trend at one point and Ivan happened to remember it, but none of them really understand it that well.

- Another clarification, in round 3 theres the red meteor shower flashback with young Till and Ivan. Ivan was adopted by rich alien sponsers and he is well favored by them. Because of this, you can notice he doesn't have a collar on like everyone else, and he's often seen taking off Till's restraints in secret, because he has the power to do that with the favor he has. During the meteor shower, Ivan found Till and freed him, and found a route to escape. But Till lets go of Ivan's hand because he doesn't want to leave Mizi behind. We can see Ivan looking back with a pained smile as if deep down he knew it was gonna happen.

- Mizi and Ivan are also somewhat bestfriends. Ivan has a sort of "big brother" relationship with Mizi and Sua as well. Except Ivan and Sua argue more like siblings.

- In All-in, we see Hyuna on earth. She's apart of a rebel group who saved her when SHE lost her round in alien stage (that's how she lost her leg, also likely that she purposefully lost because she is a great visual + singer alien-stage wise). The buff white-haired guy (Dewey) and black cap guy (Isaac) are also apart of the rebel group, they broke in to save Mizi.

- This is the 50th season of Alien Stage (in their world). Luka won the 49th/last season, which is why he seemed "used to it". He is a great visual and great singer, but he also uses emotional manipulation to choke them up (Mizi in round 5 and till in round 7).

- Luka has several clones. We can see that in Wiege, where it cuts to little him with blood all over his face in a room with bloodied corpses. He didn't understand the concept at the time, but he thought he was "freeing" his brothers but accidentally killed them instead. Because he's a clone, and the only successful one, he also has several health issues. Thats why his fingers are blue.

theres a lot more but i already wrote a whole essay lol but you did a good job on noticing a lot of the details because they're easy to miss !
