I haven’t seen that many wacky theories of the new ending other than who the May character will be or if kazemaru is going to leave soon and that’s why he’s sitting with gouenji and the managers rather than be included in the story, but I still love how they incorporated the russian fairy tale. I also have a wacky theory, although I had it before the "Summer Zombie" ending came. We never saw Ichihoshi's mother before, but I don't think she is dead or something. Instead, she is part of Orion or married to one of them, who is Asuto's father. I just had the crazy idea of Asuto and Ichihoshi being step siblings and while Ichihoshi is portrayed as the evil stepmother rather than sister, it's unlikely for him to be Asuto's stepfather (this is not a time-travelling season and Asuto already has a biological father), so he can just be his stepbrother.

Although I saw people theorizing that Ichihoshi's stepbrother is Froy, which would also make sense. It would explain why Ichihoshi was brought to Russia in the first place, also Froy's eyes look kinda similar to his.
