zsh shell formatting issues

Hello there!
I am using KDE and the zsh shell from the default installation of kali.
At some point my zsh shell started to do some very weird formatting, when entering an invalid command or trying to use autocomplete.
The command itself works normally, but the terminal is all messed up.

It is driving me crazy... and its only occurring with zsh. With bash for example everything works fine.
Maybe someone had a similar problem.

Here is my .zshrc file. Should be nothing special, because I just copied it from /etc/skel.

Code:

setopt nonomatch          # hide error message if there is no match for the pattern
setopt notify              # report the status of background jobs immediately
