Zenless Zone Zero Astra Yao: How much do you really know about her?

As the Zenless Zone Zero follow-up version of the revelations gradually appeared in the major platforms, proxies are most concerned about the follow-up of the new characters. Among them, whether it's the new characters of H.S.O.S.6. or the popular singer Astra Yao, who has been hotly debated by proxies lately, are constantly being revealed with new content. So, do you really know Astra Yao? How did she get on the proxies' radar?

1. The emergence of Astra Yao

The name Astra Yao first appeared in the 1.1 version of Zenless Zone Zero, hidden in notifications of Inter-Knot. As you can see from reading the message, Astra Yao is extremely popular in New Eridu, with concert tickets selling out in just 0.2 seconds, proving that Astra Yao is definitely one of the most famous names in the celebrity section.

2. The Event Egg of Astra Yao

If only part of news existed, Astra might just be a normal NPC in the ZZZ world, but just a few days ago, a rather suspicious Bangboo appeared in the event. In the process, she accidentally revealed her identity: a certain movie star, basically sure that the Snap is "Astra Yao". With that in mind, let's move on to Astra Yao.

3. Advertisements & Posters of Astra Yao in New Eridu

When we arrive at the Video Archive, we find a poster on the wall for Astra Yao's "FAMILY". As a wild guess, this could be the same movie that Snap was talking about starring in.

In addition to this, there are many other places where Astra Yao is advertised. For example, the game's loading screen features the movie "Hollow", starring Astra Yao.

The Howl's Newsstand also has a sort of collection of her posters that proxies can find when scratching cards.

The music store likewise has an Astra poster on display to the public. It's worth noting that the two people on the two posters below this one could also be new agents in the future!

These are the two posters about Astra at the Light Reflections Plaza, in which we can find long black hair with a white hair band is exactly the main feature of Astra. But we can't know what the textual content on the posters is trying to convey.

But the text of the Zenless Zone Zero that we once studied can come in handy at this point.

The first poster reads "Queen's choice new arrival" after a brief translation and association. We're guessing it's a fashion ad or a personal campaign. "Queen" is a term of endearment used by her fans, but it could also be a hint of who she was in the past. We'll save the details for the speculation section.

The second poster is the opposite, with Astra's image changing from a fashionista to a tennis player. The word on the back is "Workman", which is probably the name of a sports brand.

Up to this point, that's all the in-game content about Astra. But there's one more official development we haven't mentioned. Astra Yao's music album poster was featured in a news article last March. There were a few lines of small print, which we translated to read "Monologue was released early last year and contains 11 tracks"; "The artist also added her own inner monologue"; " Conversations with celebration from all walks of life". To summarize, the album contains Astra Yao's sharing and monologue and shows the listener her journey.

4. Conjectures about Astra

Conjecture #1

As we mentioned in the above article, Astra Yao has been referred to as "Queen" by the media and fans. But is it a coincidence that "an underground idol named 'Queen'" has appeared elsewhere as well?

Conjecture #2

Though we don't know if and when Astra Yao will be added in ZZZ. However, we can roughly guess the opportunity for proxies to meet Astra Yao. In the text Astra mentioned that the next big concert is already being planned. In other words, if we were to connect Phaethon with Astra Yao, perhaps it would be around her next concert that this series of stories would unfold.
