End of a season. Season 2's already in production in France. It's nearly done from what I heard. Don't know when it's coming to Cartoon Network/Miguzi though.

Today: Well, end of the season, eh? I'm sad. :( But, hey, it looks like maybe they'll be showing the episodes in order this go-'round! Or at least for this week. And the nearness of the second season is something to look foreward to. :)
Funny, Sissy's little comment on acting weak to get guys... Heh, maybe she should take her own advice, ne? XD (though that still probably wouldn't work on Ulrich: Yumi's not exactly helpless)
I smelled fanservice, yes indeed I did. Someone should remind Aelita she's not wearing her leggings under her skirt anymore. :o
And Jeremie's reaction to Aelita kissing him was too cute. ^_^ Too, too, too cute, him freaking like that. :anime: They should've focussed a bit more on the relationships and a bit less on the monsters. It would've made a nicer wrap-up, I think. Stupid monsters, don't give nobody no time to flirt! :D
Aelita can iceskate. :anime: But I don't see her objection to being on Earth. I mean, sure, she can't sense the pulsations, but she's safe from the monsters if they turn off the scanners when they're not using 'em, so X.A.N.A. can't bust through. And Jeremie always has his laptop with him, and he can connect to Lyoko and run the scanning program from there, can't he? After all, she can be scanned and devirtualized just as easily as the others.
Quote goes to Odd, I beleive: "And you'll find out that sleeping in class isn't that bad, either." And also for his little "bye-bye" wave to the wasp. :anime: Seconds go to all of Jim's insistances on being called Jimbo.

Better luck next season then. Some of the season two eppy's are somewhat different:cool:How do you know that they are different? O.o
Ah, an end to a season. :'[ However, it was a pretty good end! No objections from this side, not at all.
Kept telling you people that the urgency was because people couldn't be brought back in time if they died, but noooo... XD And straight from Ulrich's mouth there, too!
Aelita's little goof in Math class was cute. I mean, she's one smart Cookie. :D
Odd's whimsical "Bye-bye!" was adorable, as well as Yumi and Ulrich's little playback about her fan skills. They bounce stuff well off each other, very well. :D
Yumi was right, Jim [i]is a hero. Hope we'll see more stories with him in the second season, if/when we get it. Go second season!!

I would have loved to see a bit more variety in the critters that attacked the school... A Block, Crab, or Whatever-Tank would get stuck in the transporter, most likely, but a few of those mosquito-ish ones would have made for some more dramatic nail-gun-ownage scenes. :)
Looking forward to making up the missed episodes... I think I missed all of them up until either the episode with the two trains about to collide or the one with the space satellite that almost fried Yumi.
A new talkbalk for the rerun would be nice, but ti might not get enough traffic to warrant its existence.

Todays episode great I think its the best one. Aelita going to school and showing how smart she was in Math. Then Aeilita and Jeremy having a romantic walk. Then Aeilita kissed him good bye. Nice way to end the season Xana with a good plan with the monsters. Too bad Aeilita got a virus from Xana. Jim fought pretty bravly he was the hero. The episode ended with them all the CL kids walking together.
The season overall was great a 9 out of ten. I mean it had its flaws here and there with there was not a original first episode and stuff like that. Its a show then can be even better with a second season. Hopefully it comes soon.Lets just hope this isn't it for the talkbacks for Code Lyoko heck maybe I'll do one if no one else is. [ I knew there was a second season before anyone else did and no one believed me thats why I wasn't sure so I had to double check not to brag or anything]

Well, maybe a Block could have gotten through, but the others probably would have gotten stuck. And yeah, woulda been nifty if Xana had gotten a Hornet or two out to cause trouble.
Jeremy and Aelita were just too cute through this entire episode, with the photo booth thing, and the kiss. That gets me wondering, though, how the heck did those pictures wind up surviving the time reversal anyway? Maybe it only goes back to the morning of the attack, which would explain the pictures because they took them the night before. *shrugs*
EDIT: Oh yeah, and 1 bored Wolfie + a copy of Animal Crossing are a dangerous combination. I made a new town today, care to guess it's name? That's right, it's Lyoko. And it's two occupants? Aelita and Xana. I'm thinking of putting a Jeremy in there too . . .

No, remember at the end how he is so surprised for them covering up for him. And how they were calling him Jimbo and what not...he diden't remember...because he came into their dorm trying to find out what they were doing. So, Jim dosen't remember ;)
I am sticking with the pictures in the pocket theory untill someone thinks of a better idea lol ;)

It seems Jim forgot what happened, but if that's the case how come the other four always remember things even after the time resets? It seems that whatever protects their memories should now also protect Jim because he became part of their group.
Time travel screws up everything. :confused:
Aelita can iceskate. :anime: But I don't see her objection to being on Earth. I mean, sure, she can't sense the pulsations, but she's safe from the monsters if they turn off the scanners when they're not using 'em, so X.A.N.A. can't bust through. And Jeremie always has his laptop with him, and he can connect to Lyoko and run the scanning program from there, can't he? After all, she can be scanned and devirtualized just as easily as the others.
Well, she did say she'd visit, guess she just feels more useful in Lyoko.

Figures... I feel like I'm watching a slightly less anoying ending to the Big O.

There's probably an offical initation that allows you to keep your memory after traveling through time that Jim didn't have a chance to get yet. Anyway....
"False Start" Thoughts:
- Like I thought, there were some good "Alieta dosen't understand the human world" comedy moments, like mainly answering that math problem. By the way, it was really funny when Sissi thought Prime Numbers were two numbers that were the same as each other. Or maybe that's funny because I enjoy math (not Calculus though. That subject's a *****).
- Too bad Jim didn't retain his memories. Seeing him smash all the Ground Insect monsters makes me think he'd be a great fighter in Lyoko, smashing up stuff with a Giant hammer or Ax or something like that.
- I'm glad that Alieta and Jeremey had a little "date" before she had to go back to Lyoko. Even though it was just a little kiss and photo taking. Still sounds like a good time to me: Enjoying a little slice of life with the person/computer program you love.
- I'm also glad that Alieta can make small trips to the real world. Even though she's infected with the Virus and they can't shut off Xana until they get it out of her system, at least she's not totally trapped in Lyoko. I can imagine a lot of Code Lyoko fanfiction where Alieta is materialized forr a few hours and her and Jeremey go out on a date and something bad happens.
- Overall, Code Lyoko was a pretty good series. It started out confusing, but getting into it, it's actual pretty engaging. It's one of those specality series that don't appease everyone, but it's pretty appeasing if you do happen to enjoy it.

Ah, the old 'solve one problem but another problem arises that returns things to status quo' gimmik. Works for me.
Roachsters invading the school! I think that tops everything Xana's done so far for :eek: :eek: :eek: value. Fun to see them in cel animation since we never got to see Jeremy in CG.
Time reset to before Jim found out. Ah well, that was predictable I guess. After all, they would have needed to explain everything to the principal to get Jim his job back.
Ah, so the time reset really doesn't bring people back if they are killed. That's something we've long suspected but only had confirmed now. Sheesh, we had to go through the entire season just to learn some of the basic elements of the threat they face every episode. Even then, there are still some things we don't know. A flashback episode or letting us listen in to Jeremy explaining everything to Jim would have been nice.
Well, it's been a fun little show. I still have to watch episode 2 on Wednesday since I missed it the first time around, and after that I'll be looking forward to the rumored season 2.

Alright we all know that in the World of Lyoko that when the kids get hit and die, they just revert to the normal world as well know it..(Ending up in the Scanners..)
but today's Episode had no reset button, and in Jim(Bo)'s Case it was really shocking to see him get nailed in the Arm, the Leg, and even..(OMG!) in the face..(Dang!)
but in Jim(bo)'s case had he gotten down to Zero.. well then it would have been permanently .. Game over.. you're dead.. Really you are..
I was really amazed how well the animators took some of Xana's Monsters and put them on Earth (in 2D form..) This proves that 2 and 3D animation Can co-exist..
but I was like.. (OMG they Killed JIM! You (*Expletive*))
but then it wasn't just a game right?

Even though I read that spoiler in the previous thread, I really did enjoy this episode for many of the same reasons previously posted by others (Odd's goodbye wave, Jeremy/Aelita's romantic walk, and the possiblity that Aelita might be visiting them in the real world every once in a while in season to instead of them being back a square one with her completely stuck in Lyoko).
Does anybody know if there might be a DVD release of the first season of this series? I have enjoyed it a great deal and something like that would be something I would like. Hell, a well done video game would be pretty cool as well.

This last episode was really cool and the ending gives a fitting challenge for next season. Jeremie spent more than a whole freakin' year trying to materialize Aelita, now he'll probably spend another year making that antivirus program that may just clean one virus before XANA just infects Aelita with another one. And I love the fact that Aelita will be able to visit the team in the real world. I hope next season will be full of funny mishaps as Aelita get a better first hand experience.
I have just one problem with the whole set with Aelita's living arrangement. I get that Aelita was going to live with Yumi and that Odd forged a letter to help Aelita get Accepted to there school. But, that is a really nice school especially since it provides ROOM... AND... BOARD... those students have got to be paying tuition to attend that school. Where did the team get the money to pay for Aelita's tuition?
Another thing, people who die before the time lapse are not brought back. How do they know this? Do the dead disappear, or are there corpses sent back as if they were alive? Either way thousands of people die every second all over the world, shouldn't someone have noticed all of these unexplained deaths?
Also, I have a few questions about the next season? Will they age over the next year different hair, different cloths, different attude as they mature? And what grade levels does their school cover? Yumi is a year old than the others, what if she graduates or something and has to go to a different school before Aelita comes back for good?
And what drama between Yumi and Ulrich waits ahead? Sissi's continued advances, Emily return's with a vengence, a new HOT girl comes to school, or maybe little Milly or Timiy (or Timka, tamlika... uhh....the camera girl) will have a growth spurt and catch Ulrich's eye even if for but a moment?
Woooow, I didn't realize the possiblities for season 2 until just now. If any finds out about any season 2 episodes or sites that may list them pleasssssssssse for the love of God and all things Holy post them and if not to much trouble pm and/or e-mail me.

You know, it would've been funny to see Jim on Lyoko. I agree with whoever it was said he should be a sumo wrestler: he had sumo wrestler magazines! If you guessed him as a sumo without seeing this episode or screens of it, then I aplaude you for your intuition.
Someone on that forum chatterbug89 posted had a good point: if Aelita is killed in Lyoko now, does she devirtualize like the kids, or is she kaputskies? Does the computer call her a foreign being and reject her lifepoint-less form, or does it remember she was originally part of it and delete her like it would've before?
Another thing, people who die before the time lapse are not brought back. How do they know this? Do the dead disappear, or are there corpses sent back as if they were alive? Either way thousands of people die every second all over the world, shouldn't someone have noticed all of these unexplained deaths?
Maybe it's only X.A.N.A.-induced deaths that are perminent. If Odd, Milly, or Tamiya had been killed by that building collapsing, or Jim had been shot to death by the roach thing, they would be dead. But if someone in China died by drowning in a river, they'd come back. Of course, since they don't remember they were going to drown, they go right back to the river and drown again, but hey, it keeps the deaths from being unexplained. :sweat:
You know what would make a good humor fanfic? Aelita's first night on earth. Seriously. I mean, the girl has no idea what a bladder is! :o Or a shower, for that matter (at least, I've never seen evidence of her needing a little girl's room on Lyoko). That would be one of those "I'd hate to be a Lyoko character" moments, either for Aelita or Yumi (who, doubtless, was stuck dealing with her). I mean, you gotta think about these things, you know?
SacramentoTzar, there is a DVD...in France. There's also a single CD with Un Monde Sans Danger...in France. And there's even a second season emminent...in France. Everything CL is over in France! (and we don't even get cheap rips of it to download, either)
I don't know of a CL video game, though from my experience, TV shows and movies don't translate into games well. If done right, perhaps, with all the precision that comes with a good original game (think of the Ratchet & Clank and Jak series by Insomniac and Naughty Dog, respectively. Good graphics, good plot {usually}, good gameplay), a CL game could work. But if it's just hurridly slapped together as many spin-off games are, then I don't want them to work on it. I'd rather they hurry with the second season. :anime:
I am sticking with the pictures in the pocket theory untill someone thinks of a better idea lol ;)
I agree with you on the pocket thing. See, I beleive that time isn't rewound for the kids: the world rewinds around them, but their bodies are just picked up and plopped in the past. Jeremie's return coordinates he enters (explained in Killer Music) probably say something like "rewind world to 9:53 AM this morning except for Lyoko team", and X.A.N.A., being the evil virus he is, somehow worms his way into this and changes it to "Lyoko team and X.A.N.A." (he couldn't change it too much because he's only got a fraction of a second to work with, and he has to hack around Jeremie's defenses that I'm sure he puts up {or else he'd be getting kicked off Lyoko like a bad connection}). So, as time isn't reversed for them, anything on their bodies - including clothes and photos in pockets of clothes - is taken back in tact.
- Overall, Code Lyoko was a pretty good series. It started out confusing, but getting into it, it's actual pretty engaging. It's one of those specality series that don't appease everyone, but it's pretty appeasing if you do happen to enjoy it.
Agreed. Some people seem to hate the show, and then there are those like us and the Lyokophiles who love it. Sure, the voices aren't perfect. Get over it; no dub will ever be perfect. And I think the CG is good, contrary to some people (it'd also be helpful with building a video game, as you've already got the wireframe and skins for the characters ready). And, while time resetting may be "anti-climactic", action isn't the only thing that makes a show good, and there are some things that aren't reset anyway (Yumi being caught in Lyoko or Ulrich getting stuck with Sissi for a month are two examples). I'm happy with the series, and I'm looking foreward to season two.
I think I'll continue with my little analysis/blurbs/quote-of-the-day in here for episodes that I haven't already commented on. For the ones I have, I'll just put a link to my previous post and any new thoughts on here.

1. Finally, a 2-parter season finale which CN can but air out of order. I wonder what would happen if Aelita met up with that other girl who looks like Aelita (and who all but disappeared after her debut episode). :D
BTW, what happened to Jeremie's sprained ankle that the doctor said he needs to heal for several days? There was no time reset in the previous ep, which occurred most likely just a day or two ago. :confused:
2. Geez, besides stuff like potty training (which I mentioned in last week's talkback), Aelita should realize that her fanservicey antics in Lyoko are not appropriate anymore in the real world. Where she's no longer the only resident, there is such a thing as modesty now when wearing a skirt, such as the compromising position she put herself in on that bed after waking up from the coma. :anime:
Nonetheless, this episode seemed to have gone out of its way to show as much upskirt shots as possible. :sweat:
3a. Heh, when Jeremie said he'd like to "examine" her, Aelita reacted with an "interesting" smirk. :o
(Jimbo also gave a similar smirk when Jeremie offered to walk home Aelita. ;) )
3b. On that note: flower, photo booth, "princess," etc... Jeremie sure was laying it on thick on her *ahem*, wasn't he? ;)
I wouldn't have been surprised if, like any teen, Aelita turned... "curious" (or "bi-curious" - it's not like a computer program made her grow up one way or another :sweat: ). :eek:
4. Y'know, the monsters are "physical" now, not computer programs. So when Ulrich got behind one of them, he should've dropped a sweep kick on it - that would hurt/damage/incapacitate the monster just like a real physical object. :shrug:
5. Heh, and I was just thinking that with the real world possibilities at their disposal (not limited by pre-programmed arsenal), the kids should use projectile weapons as much as possible (where are the cops and their guns anyways?). But with Jimbo wasting all those nail-gun bullets, it's a wonder he didn't run out sooner. :yawn:
6. The monsters scored some hits; yet no blood whatsoever? Edit?
Then again, no direct hits at vital organs neither, so maybe it's just a cop-out? :sad:
7. That's cool ice skating by Aelita, while Yumi actually made it worse by breaking Aelita's barrier. And as before, whenever Yumi shouts (like "Yeah!"), she loses "her voice" and stop sounding like a 14-yr old girl. :(
8. First Totally Spies ended, now this. Got my afternoons back! :p
Jeremy and Aelita were just too cute through this entire episode, with the photo booth thing, and the kiss. That gets me wondering, though, how the heck did those pictures wind up surviving the time reversal anyway? Maybe it only goes back to the morning of the attack, which would explain the pictures because they took them the night before. *shrugs*
Nah, Jimbo lost his memory too and even got his job back (on account that he didn't lose it to begin with due to the time reset), so the reset went all the way back.... Which shows a couple of things:
1. Something happened to the kids much more than just discovering the truth when they originally discovered Lyoko and XANA because they kept their memories while Jimbo lost his. So it will be the same for any other person, like Sissi, who just happens to learn of the kids' secret.
2. Unlike the previous ones, this last time reset was a bit eccentric. Not only did it encompass a larger time period but it also overlapped the time when the kids faced off against XANA in the previous ep (even Jimbo's revelation occurred before it). So the kids were able to go to Lyoko twice within that time period that reset.

I am going to beat you to that interview ;) I already requested one for an article that would be published on http://www.cybernetresources.com ...but I think I should have sent it to the company that makes Ante Films and not France 3. I will have to send a copy to Anete Films too. Or France 3 may just redirect it to them if they are nice :)

Well sandy You can give me credit for that insi ght.. and in fact I got the proof of what I said, Right here.. (http://forums.toonzone.net/showpost.php?p=1272616&postcount=18) After all I just noted that if Jim was a Code Lyoko Character he could have been a Sumo wrestler..(He's Big, He's Brawny and yes he even has the Upper Body Strength that most Sumo Wrestlers have..)
but he also handles a Nail Gun quite well..(but the interesting thing is that I still was shocked that those Monsters that X.A.N.A. threw at the kids weree packing Real laser bolts! :eek: (Man Jim got Nailed at least 3 TIMES and once in the face..(Oh that's gonna Leave a MARK!)
but anyway it would be interesting to see what the outcome of season 2 might bring.. (Bring it on X.A.N.A.. Bring it on!)

Their in middle school or Jr. High. What happens when it's time for Yumi to go to high school and Aelita still not free from XANA?Uh, he meant that the nail gun was all useful, like a Swiss Army Knife. Can't you guys take an original knife-collector joke? :rolleyes: XD
Well, even if Kadic College (college, people, college) doesn't have a High School building, Yumi would still be in the vicinity. Her home isn't too far from Kadic, considering she's one of the only kids there who commutes to school and doesn't board. Besides, we've seen how efficiently they can communicate with cell phones.

"TeddyGodzilla" Thoughts:
- The good news is that the only episode I missed is next Monday's ("Big Bug"). So once I see that, I'm totally caught up on the series, which is always good.
- You know, I always looked at the first part of this episode and thought that Milly and Tamia were more of the stars and didn't realize it was Ulrich, Yumi etc's show until halfway through. Don't know why though. I guess I'm just weird like that.
- Jeremey's voice seems a lot lighter in the first episodes. Compare it to how deep his voice sounded yesterday in "False Start". You'll notice a difference right away.
- This was also the point where it seemed the show only had one real background theme: The remixed theme song. There were only traces of the other themes (the "Xana being evil theme", the "suspenful theme", and the "dramatic theme". There's also the short "humor theme" whenever Sissi is embarassed or something like that).
- Boy, how much more sense this episode makes watching it and knowing what the actual plot of the show is.
Jeremy's voice sounds so much better in this episode.

Ah, so it was you who said that, tucsoncoyote. Okay. :anime:
Easy.. ever seen MacGuyver? :D I have a feeling What Odd was trying to say here was.. Look it's a Nail Gun.. You can shoot the Monsters with it.. When you're out of Nails you can use it as a Blunt force Instrument..and there are probably other uses Jim could have used that Nail gun for.. but like I said..
Just ask MacGuyver..!MacGuyver...heh, my mom used to watch that. But, yeah, nail guns are useful.
Jeremie, Ulrich, and Odd are thirteen. Yumi is fourteen. It's pretty common knowledge... surprised you didn't know. :sweat:Right. We can also surmise that it's fairly close to the beginning of the school year, even at the end of the series. Milly made the comment on the 9th grade soccer team, meaning that for Ulrich to be 13 and in 9th grade, he either skipped a year (unlikely, as they said his grades weren't that great) or it's the beginning of the year and his birthday hasn't passed yet. And, as this is a multi-grade boarding school (probably somewhere like 6-12th grade), I don't think Yumi's gonna leave until she gets to university age. We could easily have up to a three-year gap between seasons one and two (though this would leave a pretty big gap) and they'd still be in the same school.
And as for today, as I haven't commented on it: Well, I saw part of this one before, but I didn't see the whole thing.
And, dang, I forgot what Jeremie's voice sounded like at the beginning of the series! Dad gum, but I'm glad his VA changed it! Can you say "squeaky"? I mean, sure, it makes him sound younger, but it kinda grates my nerves a bit. A mix of the beginning and end voices would be best.
Hmm...from the way Ulrich worded his "I already promised to go with Yumi", it sounded like she asked him, not the other way around (her blushing seems to add to this thought). Eh, could just be the wording, though. But why didn't Milly ask Odd to go? He was right there, too, and then later he offered to help her out.
And can you say "fanservice"? Yeah, slightly overboard there with Sissi-underwear shots. Just slightly... And Yumi in the tub, too. Sheesh.
Odd can dig his claws in quite well, can't he? But seems he gained life points in Lyoko: first Jeremie says he has 50, then he has 60. :confused:
*smirks* Yumi and Ulrich brush shoulders and they blush? Heh. Boy, do they ever have it bad...
And standing up on the table to announce a giant teddy bear attack, then Jim jumping in? Okay, that was baka of Ulrich, but dang, it was funny, Jim's reaction was.
Odd called his laser arrow "impact"? But I thought that was Ulrich's attack. :confused:
Jim nodding so fast like a lunatic to the Principal was hillarious. XD But I think quote of the day must go to Sissy: "Don't think. It doesn't suit you."

Jeremy's voice sounds so much better in this episode.Ack...I like his voice better at the end...it reminds me of when my voice started changing...but I squeaked a lot more...LOL.
Anyways, I haven't seen the first 5 episodes so I am glad I will get to see them (and have them all on DVD :) )...but I noticed somethigns after watching amost the whole series...
First of all, I can't believe this show is rated Y7. Just this first episode showed Yumi in the Tub and Sisi in her bra and panties...and you see a whole lot more of this stuff though out the whole Season. Things you think a 7 year old shoudlen't see (I diden't particualy mind thou....kind of nice:o ..LOL)
The next thing is I realy liked this first episode. They diden't focus so much on Lyoko and focused on Earth a little more...compared to at the end of the series where they almost are always on Lyoko 3/4 of the time. Still...Jermemy's voice scares me (I hated it when my voice changed...and I guess it is just scaring me again lol)

This episode the first had flaws. Jeremy's voice sounded like Aelita. Odd sounded really like a girl . Talk about Voice Acting. Sissi is real stuck up brat I'm glad Ulrich got her in the end. Look I give this episode sympathy because its the first episode. And impact isn't that Ulrich's attack. Oh yeah I'm taping Lyoko should I keep this episode on my tape

Unless my eyes were playing tricks, the title read "Teddygozilla." Sans a third "d." Copyright issues?
The voices being different threw me for a few minutes. It didn't have a good backstory, as many have been apt to complain about, but it certainly did separate the good guys from the bad (and Sissi's clique) quite well.

Jeremie, Ulrich, and Odd are thirteen. Yumi is fourteen. It's pretty common knowledge... surprised you didn't know. :sweat:I can't remember where I read this but I think I read that Jeremie is actually 12 years old. Either he's the youngest in their class and his birthday comes late or he was just skipped ahead 1 year, which is definately a possisblity for that braniac. Oh, and I prefer Jeremie and Odd's deep voices that come later in the series.
I remembered Sissy's underwear scene but I had completely forgoten Yumi's bathroom scene. That towel showing her form... that's one VERY mature 14 year old!:cool:

Another thing, people who die before the time lapse are not brought back. How do they know this?
I figure Aelita gave them that warning back when the whole thing got started (offscreen), and they've always managed to get by without anyone dying.
BTW, what happened to Jeremie's sprained ankle that the doctor said he needs to heal for several days? There was no time reset in the previous ep, which occurred most likely just a day or two ago. :confused:
I had figured was was faking that. Maybe not. Who knows.

ah yes, Sissy and her pink undies.. Yumi and Her Red underwear later in the series, is there a Trend here that I should be catching on to? (Probably not.. as I think a 400 Foot Killer teddy bear is on the loose..) and yeah what's up with Jeremy's and Odd's Voice? Sounds like they ingested a tiny bit of Helium..either that or something was up..(Maybe the Killer Teddy bear scared the life out of them..(It's hard to say..)
but all in all Xana was always lurking around the corner.. and In fact in that one scene (in Sissy's bedroom with the radio blaring.. it was like ummm nah forget that idea..(But you could have put the theme from Jaws in that one scene in Sissy's Bedroom as she comments about what she's going to wear to the dance. and you could sense Xana was watching this and wondering.. What to infect.. ah yes the Teddy Bear!)

Actually, all the noise of the popups annoys me. I wouldn't mind if they didn't make noise, but I don't like when they cut out character's lines...even if she is annoying. :D
Yumi's dance outfit sure was nice to bad its not her main one since what she normally wears is hideous
Nah, I think I like her main one better. It's more functional. I mean, sure, she could run around in it for one episode, but pants are more for working in than a skirt any day. You can't do jack in skirts. Besides, you wanna talk looking like a goth, that outfit's far more "gothy" than her normal-all black one. Yumi's proof that you can wear black and not be depressed.
Today: Odd doodling Kiwi...peeing on something. XD He's such a wierdo (but we all already knew that). And Jeremie's obsessed with materialization, of course. :anime:
Seems Jeremie's voice has dropped to normal. Mmm...I definately prefer this to that squeaky version yesterday. *nods* Much better.
"Mike" the drummer looked like a girl...in fact, I thought he was until he spoke! Nick's a good drummer, but he wasn't moving his sticks near fast enough for all the beats I was hearing. And what was Jim's obsession with being in a kid's band? Besides, he sounded like he was dieing on that trombone!
Water in Lyoko? I didn't know Lyoko had water! I mean, yeah, the polar region looks like it's in a sea (unlike the others, which just kinda...float), but I'd bet that the "sea" is really just a digital void like the rest of the world. But today we saw an oasis in the desert (or rather, a mirage). Why isn't there more water, like a fall in the forest or mountain regions or something? I figured the tower to be under the "water" before they did, though.
I think...Jeremie should lay off the puns. :sweat: I also have my suspicions that he wrote their lyrics...it seems to describe a certain someone quite well. *snickers* Then again, I thought they'd end up playing "A World Without Danger", as obsessed as the show is with its theme. :anime:

First-time poster, but I absolutely love this show! Watched all but one episode (a thunderstorm knocked out the power the day Ep 20 aired).
It's interesting to see the end of a series (for the moment, anyway) and then go back to the beginnning. I'm beginning to agree with a lot of you out there about the voices. They really sucked at the beginning. Especially Jeremie's. Then again, I'm giving leeway since most series usually have the first few episodes with the VAs trying to figure out what exactly they want their characters to sound like.
Has anyone discovered who the VAs for the series are, BTW?
To "False Start"... man, that ending just screams 'please continue!' Here we thought it would end, with Aelita now alive and well in the real world, and XANA and Lyoko doomed to be off-lined. But then XANA puts that virus in Aelita during the materialization process... and fouls everything up.
If no one picked up in the first 25 episodes that Jeremie really liked Aelita... well, welcome to the party! I think they make a cute couple. Ulrich and Yumi, unfortunately for them, make an even cuter one. What shocks me is that we know that they're meant for each other, and they always talk about each other in said fashion... but when it comes to saying their feelings towards each other, they seem to struggle at it. Maybe it's to keep some tension in the relationship... or delaying it from going too far too soon (and taking this out of the 'kids demographic'... at least by European standards).
Which brings me back to the first two episodes. Way too much fanservice for a kids series... which shows how much more mature everyone else in the world is than us Americans. Japanese animation has been proving for years they're light years ahead of us, and now European animation has done the same. Then again, I believe the first episode has the most fanservice out of any episode in the series, making the reason why because it's an extended version of the series pilot. And we know how much things can change from the pilot to the main series. If we go by how much service time-wise per episode, Episode 1 easily beats any other episode.
And to the person (don't remember who) who mentioned that the series is airing out of production order (even though the episodes are airing in order by number, according to Yahoo's TV listings), today's episode didn't seem anywhere like a 2nd episode. More like an episode that would be in the high teens (15-19).
Anyway, just chimed in to say I've never been this excited about a series since 'Kim Possible' debuted two years ago. If European animation, although drastically different in style to ours, is as good as "Code: Lyoko," we should get a whole lot more of it! And fast!

Today: Well, end of the season, eh? I'm sad. :( But, hey, it looks like maybe they'll be showing the episodes in order this go-'round! Or at least for this week. And the nearness of the second season is something to look foreward to. :)
Funny, Sissy's little comment on acting weak to get guys... Heh, maybe she should take her own advice, ne? XD (though that still probably wouldn't work on Ulrich: Yumi's not exactly helpless)
I smelled fanservice, yes indeed I did. Someone should remind Aelita she's not wearing her leggings under her skirt anymore. :o
And Jeremie's reaction to Aelita kissing him was too cute. ^_^ Too, too, too cute, him freaking like that. :anime: They should've focussed a bit more on the relationships and a bit less on the monsters. It would've made a nicer wrap-up, I think. Stupid monsters, don't give nobody no time to flirt! :D
Aelita can iceskate. :anime: But I don't see her objection to being on Earth. I mean, sure, she can't sense the pulsations, but she's safe from the monsters if they turn off the scanners when they're not using 'em, so X.A.N.A. can't bust through. And Jeremie always has his laptop with him, and he can connect to Lyoko and run the scanning program from there, can't he? After all, she can be scanned and devirtualized just as easily as the others.
Quote goes to Odd, I beleive: "And you'll find out that sleeping in class isn't that bad, either." And also for his little "bye-bye" wave to the wasp. :anime: Seconds go to all of Jim's insistances on being called Jimbo.Nice point about the scanners although I don't think X.A.N.A. would be that stupid. He would infect the most advanced military technological computer and boot all of the people out as he re cunstructs the scanners from there then shutting off the scanners would be much more difficult now wouldn't it depending the location of it. That is saying that Aelita dosen't give Jeremie the access code so he can shut it off long distance depending on the location:sweat:

Has the girl drummer from today's episode, I think her name is Noel, appeared in any other episode this season?

Oh yeah Blow up the Nuke Plant.. or at least melt it down.. after all I've noted Xana's Methods of Attack and intially the attacks were aimed at Specific Targets but I did notice a Pattern here..
An Exploding Nuke Plant (or one "doing a Chernobyl") would still take out his intended victims..(Namely the CL Kids) but think about it.. If you follow my thought pattern on this..Initially Xana was thinking of ways to go after the CLkids but wasn't targeting them specifically (The Nuke Plant, The Bus into the Petro-chem plant.. The Colliding Trains..) but each attack was broad based..
as the Season Progressed.. The attacks became more specific.. (Targeting Yumi with a Satellite's Laser, Takiing out Ulrich with a Killer Movie set Alien, the Samurai Armor Attack, Targeting Odd's Downloaded Music. all these attacks were Aimed Directly at the CL Kids..
so could we supposedly assume that Xana Like any self thinking AI Computer started to realize that the best way to win was to take the Opponents out BEFORE they got into Lyoko? (In short Stop the Kids from stopping the attacks ) Thus Giving Him (Xana) the ability to win..
(It's sort of like Joshua From War Games.. Computer Learns to think and reason and learns that the best way to win is to stop the enemy in every way known possibility..?)
just a thought here..
:coyote:
I noticed something. In the middle of episode 2, Jim says "I'm not letting you leave here until you let me join your group". He's talking about the band, but after seeing 26, it makes you wonder if the writers were forshadowing...

Which, of course, culminates in the virus that XANA plants in Aelita before as she crosses over from Lyoko to the real world - he knows that the kids wouldn't shut him down if it meant killing Aelita.

X.A.N.A. as Jeremie's girlfriend? Well, maybe if that old theory about Aelita and X.A.N.A. as yin and yang were true, maybe.
Hee-hee, a little fluff there for us fluffaholics. :anime: Not much, but enough to shut the fluffaholic side up for a bit.
Odd gets props for his little thing about Kiwi. :D And poor Ulrich, stuck with the math tutor. With her voice type and whatnot, it still rather surprises me that she wasn't nagging him about his posture and such, too. :p
Again with the head-on collisions. Not as funny as a four-kid pile-up, but alright for some humor. And, hey, transition scene! I forgot that one.
Ulrich should've held his jacket up over his nose. I think he had a little handkerchief or something, though.
Yumi: Hi Aelita. Have you seen any monsters?
Aelita: Not yet.
Odd: Guess you didn't look very hard.
Good conversation. Probably one of the better quotes of the ep.. Quote of the day goes to Odd, though: "Hey you! That's right, you..."
Jim doesn't know his kids very well, does he? Blond and brown are pretty different hair colors...
Hey, Jeremie told Aelita to hurry up! He actually sais it. Boy, I've forgotten a lot of this ep.. Well, all in all, it's another CL. Even the reruns are alright. :anime:

No.
Before the last two episodes of the first season, XANA and Aelita ARE NOT LINKED. It's only at the end of episode 25, Code: Earth, that XANA implants the virus in Aelita that links the two of them as she is undergoing the materialization process to bring her to Earth. In ep 26 Aelita talks about how she felt XANA's "presence" in the tower at the moment of her materialization, as if he were trying to hold her back. THAT is when the virus was placed. XANA, whatever he/it is, is smart enough to know that once Aelita is out, the kids can shut him down for good, so he sadistically uses their friend to ensure his own safety.
Whatever ramifications the virus will have on both XANA and Aelita will (hopefully) be covered next season.

Maybe that's an explanation, I guess. :shrug:
As for what Tottoko meant is not about the last 2 eps (about the virus that links XANA to Aelita). I think he meant that if Aelita dies in Lyoko, there's nobody left for the kids to save. With no more Aelita to save, the kids could just go ahead and shut down XANA. So the virus on XANA is really the one that does it? :shrug:

Exactly. The only reason to let X.A.N.A.'s threat exist is because of Aelita. If Aelita is killed, or materialized without a virus, X.A.N.A.'s done for.
Today: Seen this one, too; haven't commented on it.
Did'ya notice? Someone has a Gameboy as well as a GBASP. :D
Voices are back to wacky...but lots of transition scenes today. ^_^
Jealous Herb (poor guy :sad: )...and Yumi. :anime: Speaking of which, she knows Ulrich's handwriting, so why doesn't he know hers? She doesn't seem like the type to just randomly write notes to a guy.
Did Sissi have a nose job? I dunno; did she? XD
Jim sure is grouchy...and nuts. And what sorts of "strange things" did Aelita discover, eh? That could be taken in a rather wrong context, considering this show's history of fanservice and other line-toeing.
Their water tanks are up high...that's wacky. Well, lots of European things are wacky; toilets aren't the first.
Ulrich's pretty smart, thinking of backpacks as airbags and stuff.
Best conversation of the ep. (aside Ulrich and Yumi's little fluff-fest at the end):
Bus driver: Does the little girl need any help?
Sissi: No, the little girl can take care of herself.
I must know: how do Megatanks see when they're balled up to roll around? :confused:
Hmm...that was a rather...compromising possition there. :sweat: *wonders if Jeremie wished he were Odd* XD
Can we say "fluff"? Yes, that was fluffy indeed. What in his diary does he want to share with her, mmm...? :anime: And I must agree, he did look like he was gonna kiss her. Yumi caught on a moment too late, though. And, instead of calling him back, she just kinda waves... Well, still, good dose of fluff. Good ep..

Hey All, New poster here. This would be my first week of watchin Lyoko and I'm already hooked (not to mention have listened to the mp3 of the theme so many times I think I have it on permanant repeat in my head :D ).
I'm kinda wondering if anyone else noticed in today's (friday's) ep how aparently odd has some.. rather unusual resileancy (sorry about spelling) after his jump out of the bus. I know I'm not quite up on my kmh/mph conversions, but if I remember correctly, wasn't the bus going about 100 km/h as he jumped? I'm pretty sure that's fast enough to do a bit more damage than he limped away with.
Don't get me wrong, I have no complaint with that one happening, I've yet to have a problem with Lyoko (even the "fanservice" bit as has been mentioned can be overlooked), I just thought that was kinda interesting.

He tends to land on all fours, and it didn't look like he slammed full-face into the pavement. Odd's graceful, in his feline way. The jump did hurt him, but not as much as it would have hurt someone who didn't have the experience in their brain to twist precisely the right way, at the right moment. :D

And to the person (don't remember who) who mentioned that the series is airing out of production order (even though the episodes are airing in order by number, according to Yahoo's TV listings) There's a French episode guide somewhere out there that you can read reasonably well using Bablefish. It doesn't match the order that CN is using, and I presume it's more reliable since it's a French show. It may be one of those shows where the production order frequently doesn't match the original air order, it's a pretty standard thing for prepackaged runs of shows to use the production order even when it's obviously not the intended order. Since Lyoko only has a couple instances of what might be called continuity, I'm not sure it really matters anyway.

Today: Another seen it-haven't commented epi.. The whole beginning conversation was funny. Lots of funny Sissi-bashing by our favorite Lyoko boys. :D
And as jealous as Yumi is, I'm surprised no one else has said anything. Not jealous...sure. :anime:
Today reminds me of that "if train one leaves town X going 90 miles an hour at 9:00 AM, and train two leaves town Y going 75 miles an hour at 9:15, when and where will they collide?" math problem.
Kiwi's pretty smart. And obedient (better than my dogs, anyway). But Sissi's wrong: rules were made to be broken. After all, wasn't it...wasn't it Ghandi who said "Learn the rules properly so you know how to properly break them"? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought I read that somewhere.
Jim's not so bright, though: if he wanted to keep an eye on Odd, he should've taken them both outside with him. :rolleyes: "Walking his widdle doggie", heh. ^_^
Why do they always stop by Jeremie's room when they know they're going to be needed (considering how they're always needed)? I mean, he can fill them in while they're fighting, can't he?
Why didn't Aelita just hurry and run inside the tower? I mean, sure, we know the monsters can attack it, but how long, and how much concentration, is needed to put your hand on a screen and type "CODE: LYOKO"?
Herb or Kiwi, either way, Sissi gets tackled. :p Heh. I'd like to see that newspaper. :anime:

I guess I'll have to start posting here again lol...well actualy I am pretty mad that my server was hacked...but I have to make the best out of everything :)

Okay, I just started watching this show. What the hell is with Odd? It looks like a girl but sounds like a guy? What is it?
Is it just me or is Aelita the ugliest girl ever created next to Eliza Thornberry. I mean, what the hell is with her head?

Odd is a guy, Master Moron. Odd is a guy is a guy is a guy. *nods* Odd is in possession of a Y chromosome, yes indeed he is. And we found someone who doesn't like Aelita? :eek: Wow, there's a first!
does anyone not like Kiwi? its a cute name but that thing is far from a cute dog!
Yes and no. Kiwi's one of those dogs that's so ugly he's cute. An odd dog for an odd boy, I say. :anime:
Today: Poor Jeremie, getting so embarrassed by Aelita suggesting they'd be able to kiss. *giggles* But he's not very discreet with the "WAKE UP, IT'S A X.A.N.A. ATTACK!" screaming. Tell the whole school, why don't ya?
Aelita supposedly has no idea what feeling is, yet she often says she feels pulsations. And later she tells Odd that running will warm him up, yet she supposedly can't feel cold. :shrug:
Today be some cute Yumi/Ulrich fluff. Her saving him from the buldozers, and then he was so distraught when she was stuck; I loved his "You can bring her back?" expression. So...fluffy! :anime: Teh fluffaholic is happy. :anime:
Odd wiggling his kitty tail was funny. :D
Jeremie didn't say "return to the past", but his lips moved.
Quote goes to Ulrich on sleeping with earplugs: "Yeah, and one of these days, I'll tell you why." Runner-up is Jeremie and the X.A.N.A. alert yell, then Yumi and her "candy can fix anything, even a broken heart".
Conversation quote goes to Odd and Jeremie:
Odd: Well, make up your mind, am I a genious, or a creep?
Jeremie: You're a creepy genious!

didn't this episode run much later in the first run? good to see things getting shown in order....or maybe even more out of order? :confused: still a good episode with Ulrich really getting hurt and the factory being under attack! Odd wiggling his kitty tail was cute and Jeremys lucky none of the ceiling fell on his head! http://members.aol.com/kimminakochan/chicken.gif

Great post Sandy...you beat me to pretty much everything I was goign to say lol.
Poor Jermimey diden't get to Materilize Aelita...little does he know he will in the future for I can see the future! LOL.
You have a point there with her "feeling" pulsations...but I think it is just an expression and I think she has some sort of physical connection with Lyoko, because you will notice only her can "feel" the pulsations and the other Lyoko kids can't.

Great post Sandy...you beat me to pretty much everything I was goign to say lol.
LOL. :anime: I have a habit of doing that; I've even gotten a reputation of being a hard act to follow over on the R&C boards at Playstation.com. :sweat:
Today: I thought X.A.N.A.-fied towers glowed red; this one was white. :confused:
Even knowing it's X.A.N.A. (seen this epi. before), that scene of Yumi telling Ulrich to go out with Sissi was still wierd! :eek: And her flirting with Jeremie, too. FREAKY!
Parthenogenesis...long freaky word for long freaky biological processs. :D
Jeremie says Yumi's tramatised, but I think Ulrich's the one who's really traumatized. ;) Heh-heh-heh...
I'm still wondering how Yumi got herself devirtualized. Did Ulrich just hand over his sword and she commit sepuku, or did he have to attack her? The mind boggles at what is not shown...
The real-world fighting was kinda choppy. If they smoothed it out, it'd be better.
No saying "return to the past!" Wow, there's a first.
Fluffy ending. :anime:
Odd gets good lines (I think I even heard him "meow" in Lyoko XD). *nods* Most any of his quips could qualify as quote of the day. But I think I'll give it to Jeremie for "Okay, I'll leave you to your love stories. Right now, I've got a super-psychopathic computer to feed!" :anime:

i'm thinking he attacked her. she doesn't seem like the suicidele type. if he did attack her i wonder if he felt bad about it. you know he likes her and everything then he stabbs her in the chest. wow. freaky. we already know he has guilt issues(i.e. killer music, cruel delema) i bet that didn't help him any especially since he is always trying to protect her.

Yeah, she doesn't seem like that type (though a certain batch of fanfics I've found would have you think otherwise). Plus, she suggests that he's armed, not "there's a sword; hand it over." This is one of those things that would make a good one-shot fanfic. I'd write one, but I have - no kidding - a million projects as it is. :sweat:
Today: Ulrich has an idea? I agree with Odd: "How come ever time he says 'nothing to worry about', I get worried? And I mean I get worried." :anime: Good vye for quote of the day.
Everybody gets so excited, and then shushes each other, LOL. "Eee...shh!" :D
Sissi is SO stuck on herself (she's also a whiney little whimp who can't shut up). So is Mr. Vincint, for that matter. Whole school has a lot of nerve, indeed. What really surprises me is, 1.) they let two very hormonal teenagers share a tent and 2.) Sissi was actually giving him breathing room while they slept! That's like, shock of the century! :eek: (the second point, not the first :D )
Irony indeed. Monster drips slimy ooze all over her right as she says something about it. Oh, the irony of it all... And then she got licked, lol. XD
The wasps do 20 lp per hit? Dang, them's some seriously bad monsters, ne? And although Odd was the one being nutty on the ice slide, I still stand by my idea that the entire point of that was more Aelita fanservice.
Why does he think that since he created the monster it'll listen? It's not like it's a living being, after all.
I think Aelita didn't mean they wouldn't have time to get to the other tower if she picked wrong; I think she meant she figured X.A.N.A. would've booby-trapped the false one, maybe have it blow up in her face or something.
Conversation quote:
Odd: Jeremie, what's at the end of this?
Jeremie: Well, ah, uh...
Odd: Oh, I get it; GERONIMO!
Stand-alone one-liner quote must go to Odd, though: "I know what you're gonna tell me: 'hurry up!' Well, for your information we're not exactly having a tea party here!" I get the exact same feeling every time my mom tells me to hurry.

Heh, after the last couple eps I've noticed that Aeltia (hope I spelled that right) has to be seriously thankfull for those leggings/sweatpants (that's what they remind me of at least). It seems there are more shots that seem to make her miniskirt usless than one would expect :sweat:.
I've also noticed that while it's pretty obvious Jeremy and Aelita (or more Jeremy) have something going, fate (or blind luck) seems to put odd and Aelita in more compromising postions... :D

Something about the way Sissi is so stuck on herself explains why I don't hate her as much as similar stereotyped characters from other series. Eh... must be a European thing.

Very true about Aelita. At least the leggins mean that we don't see much on the upskirt shots. Maybe the creators had a problem with showing a virtual girl's underwear. On the other hand, there seems to be no problem with seeing Sissi's or Yumi's. Sissi in today's episode, a good example.
Unlike yesterday's episode, where Ulrich got tiffed at the fake... and real Yumi, flirting with Jeremie, I don't think Jeremie feels the same animosity with Odd and his dealings with Aelita. Then again, he wouldn't be able to see these 'interesting' postions unless Aelita showed him, because Jeremie's only view into Lyoko itself is through Aelita's eyes... and it's only when he wants to see what she sees.
Sissi is SO stuck on herself (she's also a whiney little whimp who can't shut up). So is Mr. Vincint, for that matter. Whole school has a lot of nerve, indeed. What really surprises me is, 1.) they let two very hormonal teenagers share a tent and 2.) Sissi was actually giving him breathing room while they slept! That's like, shock of the century! :eek: (the second point, not the first :D )
I think it's Mr. Rinson, as shown by his signature, though easily without it, it could be Vincent or anything else that sounds like it.
Number 1 is part of why I watch this series. Cultural differences. Only in a French series, from the country of love, would two teens of the opposite sex, be sharing a tent. Maybe the director thought it was safer because they knew each other... but obviously he's not around teens much.
Even if Number 2 happened, it would be limited to hugging. We all know Sissi likes Ulrich and would so like to take him from Yumi, but I doubt that she (or Yumi, for that matter) is at a stage in their relationship where they'd want to go beyond first base. Not that they should... it's inappropriate for their age and for this series (though it won't stop certain fanfic writers).
Is it wrong to think about a children's show THAT way, because there are numerous things, especially in today's episode, that could suggest it. The woman in the movie (and in her underwear coming out of her tent the morning of the shoot) and Sissi... the way they got slimed? Man, talk about people having a field day.
And lest I forget about another non-normal thing. You'd be crazy to show a scary movie to a bunch of tweens and teens, with no parental supervision, for a 'Meet a famous person' day. Try to do it in a public school, much less a private school like the one the kids go to in the show, and watch the PTA and all the concerned parents sue the school, the principal, and the entire school system.
It would happen, trust me. In my area in the past three months alone, several parents sued a school for showing "The Passion of the Christ." At another school, a parent sued because her daughter was given an assignment to download lyrics to rap songs and analyze them.
A backwards society we Americans are. Or just one a whole lot civilized than most of the modern world.
Jeremie didn't say "return to the past", but his lips moved.
You know, I thought Jeremie said that after practically every episode. But here we are on the second run, eight episodes in... and he's said it, what, twice? I originally thought he said it in every episode but two in the entire series, but I guess I was wrong.

yeah i mean you think she would try to make out with him or something. sissy was more obnoxios then usual in this episode.
is it just mean or do aelita and odd definately have something going for them. think about it. i've seen aelita fall on odd once and odd fall on aelita once too. they always fight together in lyoko and they kinda look out for each other too. aelita held out her arms to odd to help him up if he needed it. aelita didn't cross her legs when she was sliding on the ice and she would have if she had wanted too. even though odd was there i guess she didn't care if he just happened to look behing him and see up her skirt. they just always seem REALLY close to me. hmmmm... i feel a fanfic coming on!

when kiwi and teh guys start off to the factory kiwi is riding on jeremys scooter. wouldn't he have been happier running?
when odd is climbing up the ladder we get a glimpse of his skateboard. the back of it is light pink.
How did kiwi know how to get to the elevator without swinging on a rope?
i found one more but i forgot what it was.
wow most of the time sissy is munipulating her dad to get her way. this time she was yelling at him. yumi and sissy working together? they made a pretty good team.

It seems Jim forgot what happened, but if that's the case how come the other four always remember things even after the time resets? It seems that whatever protects their memories should now also protect Jim because he became part of their group.
Time travel screws up everything. :confused:So far my theory is that it is actually X.A.N.A. that protects their minds from the time reversal and Jim does remember. He has to act paranoid or else someone will start suspecting something c'mon who starts doggin a group of kids and suddenly starts to team up with them:confused: for one its illogical and a very hard thing to cover up especially if you are in Jim's position:sweat:

06-04-2004, 08:19 PM
Yeah, why was Kiwi riding with Jeremie? Shouldn't he have been with Odd? And another thing... is Kiwi that well-trained that he knows how to get back to the school from the Factory, after it's apparent in this episode that, as far as we know, it's his first trip to the kids' homebase?
As I watch these episodes for the second time, I keep reminding myself that X.A.N.A. is very, very intelligent. Being able to blow out power grids, using attennas to access a satellite, taking possession of a teddy bear. Okay, maybe not the last one's a good example, but still... the gang's very lucky to have Jeremie. Shoot, Jeremie should be lucky to be smart enough to do what he does. And at his young age. Aelita and Lyoko would be long gone without Jeremie's technological knowhow.
This was one of my favorite episodes. I like how Sissi isn't afraid to stand up to the principal, even if it's her father. After all, nothing can keep kids from their video games... uh, trading cards... uh, cell phones, whatever.
How many times has Ulrich been devirtualized? I know Yumi and Odd have their share of 'game over' syndrome, but it's never happened to Ulrich, right? He's either very good or very lucky... or a bit of both.
:) I remember how everyone the board dubbed this week as 'Pick on Yumi' week back during the first run. Falling into a digital hole and being 'deleted,' being captured and cloned, being hunted by a monster (though she shared that with Ulrich and Sissi), and now being targeted by a satellite. This week got me to thinking again who the leader of the team is. This week makes an easy argument for Yumi, since she's always the target. Though you could also argue that X.A.N.A. targets Yumi because girls are weak.
*dodges random objects being thrown*
Hey, it's possible! And I don't hate Yumi... she's my favorite! :cool:
And speaking of which... I know that when Aelita enters in 'Lyoko,' that immediately stops whatever X.A.N.A.'s doing. But come on... buses don't stop on a dime (Episode 3) and even if you stop the satellite, the ray should've hit it's mark. I'm supposed to believe that it stops inches from Yumi's face? That's scientifically impossible!
Sorry... the realistic side of me talking. I point these things out even though I know that this is a cartoon. Don't know why... just do.
Anyway, except for that little part, this would be the episode I'd pick to try to get someone who hasn't seen the show hooked on it. Nothing objectionable, and it could serve as an after-school special.
"Never touch any open electrical circuits unless you're wearing specially insulated gloves... and you've got a few kids to keep you from falling off the roof of a several-story building."
Somebody should've told Jim that. :sweat:

I missed half of today's ep. because I was at Wal*Mart with my mom and brother. And we've had some wacky storms, along with other life issues, so this is my first good chance to say something on here.
I'd have to say today is the only day that Sissi sounds even remotely like me (and then only in her lines; I have a much different voice quallity than her, thankfully). ...Woah, creepy...a snot sounded like me? WIERD!
This week got me to thinking again who the leader of the team is. This week makes an easy argument for Yumi, since she's always the target.
Yes, and as I've pointed out before, she also gets what you call "leader poster possition". And, as I also stated before, it's next to impossible to tell who's in charge, because each person has their own expertise and takes over in that area. Like I said: they're a team, not an army. There's no real heirarchy, no politics, none of that stuff. They each help where they can and follow directions of the more experienced when they don't know what to do.
And speaking of which... I know that when Aelita enters in 'Lyoko,' that immediately stops whatever X.A.N.A.'s doing. But come on... buses don't stop on a dime (Episode 3) and even if you stop the satellite, the ray should've hit it's mark. I'm supposed to believe that it stops inches from Yumi's face? That's scientifically impossible!
Actually, what happens is that time freezes for everyone but the Lyoko kids. Time stops, so the bus and laser stop. Then, after time has been on "pause" for a moment (during which the Lyoko kids are still free to move), it rewinds. The kids simply aren't affected by the time changes; their timelines continue on, while the rest of the world goes back. But, should someone die (in which case, the end of their timeline would be frazzled and unable to continue), when their timeline is pulled back, it's still frazzled, and they're still dead.
It would happen, trust me. In my area in the past three months alone, several parents sued a school for showing "The Passion of the Christ." At another school, a parent sued because her daughter was given an assignment to download lyrics to rap songs and analyze them.
Well, most schools have a "no R-rated movies" policy, so I'm not surprised (the Romans really knew how to torture someone, didn't they?). As to the rap songs, I can understand sueing, but it really depends on the song. There are a few raps that, when you read the words, are "clean" (but they still sound just like the "dirty" rap songs on the radio). But, if they told her to analyze your average rap, I can see sueing over it. Especially if she was fairly young.
is it just mean or do aelita and odd definately have something going for them. think about it. i've seen aelita fall on odd once and odd fall on aelita once too. they always fight together in lyoko and they kinda look out for each other too. aelita held out her arms to odd to help him up if he needed it. aelita didn't cross her legs when she was sliding on the ice and she would have if she had wanted too. even though odd was there i guess she didn't care if he just happened to look behing him and see up her skirt. they just always seem REALLY close to me. hmmmm... i feel a fanfic coming on! :p
Now we know what Odd's purpose in the romance department is: provide another side to the Jeremie/Aelita story! Ulrich, Sissi, and Yumi are all in their little stalemate over who gets the guy; now Odd and Jeremie get to fight over who gets the girl. :D
Actually, I think it's just that Aelita has no real sense of embarrassment. Upskirt shots? Whatever. She'd probably run around naked if she didn't have clothing programmed into her, and not care in the least (do you think the idea of removable/changable clothing fascinated her like everything else on Earth?). Besides, the only way we'd see anything really going on is if Odd flat-out said he was in love with Aelita, because, as Freedom Fighter said, Jeremie doesn't see anything on Lyoko; he just sees the screen that shows his friends green and X.A.N.A. red. He can't see if someone looks at someone else. He probably doesn't even know how close Yumi and Ulrich came to kissing; all the screen would've shown was that they were standing next to each other.
And, as I will be at camp from the 5th to the 11th, I won't be posting here this next week. Just so you all know. ;)

Um, not totally sure who said it off hand, but in refernece to someone mentioning "she says she feels the pulsations from X.A.N.A" I think by the 2 senses explaination by Jeremy, that Aelita means that more in the telepathy idea than anything else.

He can't see if someone looks at someone else. He probably doesn't even know how close Yumi and Ulrich came to kissing; all the screen would've shown was that they were standing next to each other.
Well really for Aelita to have a sense of embarrassment about upskirt shots, or nakedness, wouldn't that require a bit of knowladge of the whole "birds and the bee's" stuff? I know this ends up overanalyizing it, but really as a program, would she understand reproduction or even the mental processes that go on when it comes to the opposite sex (yeah she and Jeremy have those moments, but I get a feeling for her it's more curiosity than actuall feelings there.)? When it comes down to it, is she even anatomically correct enogh to have to worry about modesty?
Heh, sorry about thinking way to far into this (it is a cartoon after all), chalk it up to sleep dep and bein a bit under the weather.

After Seeing the Episode Satellite, I started to wonder really if we shouldn't be watching the military a bit more closely.. After all in this episode, X.A.N.A. snags a military satellite (complete with SDI* Laser) and decides to Target the school.)
Now targeting a School with a laser is one thing, but what was really interesting is what Jeremy commented about...
How Accurate is that satellite???
It's then we find out that X.A.N.A's target is Yumi...
Now this I feel is a bit highly improbable, if not highly impossible, as most military photographic recon satellites can get down to a picturewise resolution of less then 1/2 of 1 Meter.. but an SDI* laser targeting satellite? The range from even a couple hundred miles up, still seemed a bit far fetched to target someone who's barely 1.5 meters tall! Perhaps it could hit a Target about the size of a small room, or maybe at the very extreme outright, a large table.. but a kid? I think not!
I mean the plot is good an all, don't get me wrong. but why target Yumi? This has been really puzzling me since the first time I saw the episode, and in fact I was wondering if anyone else has some potential insight on how X.A.N.A. could snag a satellite, and use a laser to target someone..
I still find it highly skeptical. Unless the military is being so secretive, that they actually might have something THAT accurate!

I don't think Aelita has any idea of the "birds and bees". That makes it so cute (I forget the exact ep) when Jeremie is talking to her about being materialized and she says it will be great being in the same room and able to touch each other and Jeremie blushes and says "yea that would be nice" or something like that in an understated way. Clearly Aelita doesn't fully understand the meaning and Jeremie isn't ready to explain it. I'm sure Yumi would have to have a long talk with her on that first night. I'm surprised they got any sleep.

Well if you listen to rumors, there are those who say that we have spy satellites that can read licence plates or even the name on a golf ball. I guess it wouldn't be to hard to extend that kind of resolution or accuracy to an orbital laser. My GPS receiver that I use for geocaching is accurate up to 13' to find any cache cooridinate I'm looking for. I suppose the military units are even more accurate.
What I'm still trying to figure out was if that was a French satellite or was Jeremie just looking at French military site that had a database of American or Russian satellites.
I think I missed the part in which they decided that they couldn't just disconnect the school antenna (or knock it down) to prevent XANA from connecting to the TV dish. I saw Jim get shocked, but surely Jeremy is smart enough to do the job safely.
As to why XANA keeps targeting Yumi, maybe he knows something about her that no one else does. Maybe she is "The One" :sweat: ? In Teddy Gozilla he even left the school to get her when the others were right there on campus closer. I thought I read somewhere that in the original pilot "Garage Kids", Yumi has her TK powers in the real world too.

What was the name of that movie were there was this guy that was trying to escape from the government, and they used satellites to figure out where he was at any given point, whenever they lost visual contact on him? Just by using a cell phone, starting a car, even stopping at a traffic light... they could tell where he was. Well... I don't think all of that happened, but I don't remember the movie exactly.
As for Aelita... I agree with mostly everyone here. It's not in her programming to feel modesty or worry about if her skirt is up or down. In fact, if not for the kids, she would have no one to interact with, and no way to learn about the difference between Lyoko and the real world.
And for the stuff about reproduction... well, computer programs spread and procreate differently than humans do. Enough said about that.

i'm thinking he attacked her. she doesn't seem like the suicidele type. if he did attack her i wonder if he felt bad about it. you know he likes her and everything then he stabbs her in the chest. wow. freaky. we already know he has guilt issues(i.e. killer music, cruel delema) i bet that didn't help him any especially since he is always trying to protect her.
That had to be very hard for him. Depending on how many life points she still had. It seems loosing life points must hurt, they groan alot and rithe in agony when hit by monsters. He loves and wants to protect her, there she is crying in pain and he has to hit her again. That has guilt trip all over it.

How many times has Ulrich been devirtualized? I know Yumi and Odd have their share of 'game over' syndrome, but it's never happened to Ulrich, right? He's either very good or very lucky... or a bit of both.
:) I remember how everyone the board dubbed this week as 'Pick on Yumi' week back during the first run. Falling into a digital hole and being 'deleted,' being captured and cloned, being hunted by a monster (though she shared that with Ulrich and Sissi), and now being targeted by a satellite. This week got me to thinking again who the leader of the team is. This week makes an easy argument for Yumi, since she's always the target. Though you could also argue that X.A.N.A. targets Yumi because girls are weak.
*dodges random objects being thrown*
At that age I don't think there is much difference in strength between boys and girls."Cruel Dilema" I am very impressed(stunned) at Yumi leaping from the bulldosers(backhoes) with Ulrich then carrying him to the lab. She's stronger than she looks.
XANA definitely doesn't like Yumi. It gives up at least two chances to finish Ulrich, "End of Take" and "Robots" in favor of going after her. You would think Jeremie is the greater threat. She must have done something in the very beginning that interfered with it's plans.

Well one way to look at that is to think about how the only other contact XANA's really had with a female is Aelita, and obviously that's not to it's liking. Maybe based off of dealing with her it decides yumi is the biggest threat for some reason.

Because she looked like Aelita (even though her hair was red, not pink), she sounded like Aelita and because Aelita had apparently disappeared from Lyoko. Perhaps his theory was that his materialization program did work, albeit belatedly, or XANA materialized Aelita and caused her to lose her memory.

Great action this time though. Lots of multiple shots by the crabs hitting all in a row. Odd got hit in the bum several times while laying on that ledge.

I think the beginning of the story was cut on this episoded. According to the episode summary at the French site, it starts with Sissi finally confessing her feelings to Ulrich who then laughs in her face and hurts her feelings. Then she decides to get revenge by stirring up trouble between him and Yumi.
I know not many people care much for Sissi, but this small edit made her look far worse than she really is. The summary from the site is below:
3. SWARMING ATTACK
Written by Vincent Bonjour
Sissi, the school’s babe-in-waiting, plucks up the courage to tell Ulrich she has a crush on him. Far from being flattered, Ulrich bursts out laughing, hurting Sissi’s feelings. Determined not to be the fool in this situation, Sissi decides to get her own back by stirring up trouble between Ulrich and Yumi. While all this is going on, the X.A.N.A super-calculator has found a new way to attack our planet. It has contaminated the wasps on the school grounds and is using them to attack ! Yumi, Ulrich, Odd, and Jeremy will have to fight against this new menace. But Sissi’s meddling have sown seeds of doubt in the team members and it’s badly affecting their team spirit …

Naked transformations aside one of the biggest censors or changes to Sailor Moon was the gender change of Zoisite from male in the Japanese version, to female in America for obviously politically correct reason since he/she was Malachite's lover.
Most other changes in the early days seemed to be merely to sanitize any Japanese cultural references out of it. There really wasn't much they could do with Rei and her grandfather's Shinto shrine but other more mundane things such as Japanese writing and names were changed of course. And even simple foods such as rice balls, niku-man or mochi had to become "powdered donuts" and Neflyte's brandy became lemonade.
The changes became less common once Cartoon Network aquired Sailor Moon however. Then they even started calling Tokyo by its own name and referring to the future of Crystal Tokyo.
I could probably go on but.... this is a Code Lyoko thread so I've said too much already.

ulrich didn't seem to mad at sissy today i guess since she releaved him of some serious arm pain. this used to be my favorite episodes, i have seen it so many times. but i like "routine" now. i haven't even seen like 5 of them.

True, but I've found that it's possible to tread water using only your feet (it's harder to do it with only your arms and no feet). Ulrich also plays a lot of soccer and spars with Yumi, so he's in pretty good shape. Sissi, on the other hand, is a foo-foo girl. Maybe she cheerleads, but she doesn't seem to do too much of that (it's only mentioned once, rather than Ulrich's multiple atheletic abilities). It's a matter of atheleticism.
Now that I've embarassed myself with admitting that I have a little bit of knowladge of SM, I'm going to go hide my head in shame ;)
SM's one of the favorite "how dubs completely change the show" examples. If you know anything about animé in general, you've probably heard at least a little about SM. No shame in that, buddy.

Actually, she said "I don't know how many I have left." Here's a thought: ask Jeremie! Seriously, he can check stats on any of them at any time; why not? Besides, even if he knew he had to, it'd still be pretty hard on Mr. Guilt Trip. As Kagetsu said, losing life points causes great pain, or else they spend a lot of time doing theatrics and getting hit again and losing more life points because they refuse to stand back up and fight. It must be painful, and Ulrich only does 10LP a hit. Yumi probably had more then 10 left, so it's likely he hit her more than once. Ouch, major guilt trip indeed!

- How many shows do you know deal with 'parental separation' and don't try to make a public service announcement out of it?
- Geese, Sissi, if you know showing off your figure to Ulrich won't get his attention, give up. Show off to someone who'll appreciate it.
- About time we see Odd use his 'see the future' ability again. Don't think he uses it anymore after this, though.
- Aelita's very lucky, with Yumi, Ulrich, and Jeremie all incapcitated, and Odd's computer DNA affected by the presence of the 'laughing gas' in the transfer pod... Xana should've brought some more 'Blocks.'
- Odd using some trickery to compensate for his disadvantage in Lyoko. Dangerous, but we all know Odd likes to be the risktaker.
- The only time when Jeremie says 'Return to the Past' and it really seems out of place. He's practically in a coma, hanging on for dear life, and he manages to say his catchphrase in his normal tone? Come on...
Eh... okay. BTW, anyone catch the new 'back to the show' and 'show ad' bumpers? Part of the new CN look, I guess.

Laughing Fit is all Odd! its strange but alone and at his weakest Odd did better then he normally does :eek: to make the kids die laughing seems right out of the Jokers handbook but how did Xana know about the gas anyway? does he like have full survellance of the school :confused:
Actually, she said "I don't know how many I have left." Here's a thought: ask Jeremie! Seriously, he can check stats on any of them at any time; why not?
Jeremy wasn't at the computer he was in the scanner room getting choked by evil Yumi so they couldn't ask him

man i really felt sorry for Odd cause he was about to die that whole time he was in lyoko. aelita could of been a little more considerate.
that was scary when yumi was choking. that was really scary. man it sounded like she really was dying.

Jeremy wasn't at the computer he was in the scanner room getting choked by evil Yumi so they couldn't ask him
But Yumi didn't know that. She never said, "Jeremie, how many life points do I have left?" and then got no reply. I don't remember the other kids telling her Jeremie couldn't be reached (in fact, I don't think they were even aware of the fact that he wasn't there; I don't remember a "Hey, Jeremie, where'd you go, man?" from anyone). She just automatically assumed that she had to go, and, although part of her reason was that she figured she needed to be the one to fight herself (maybe she knew Ulrich wouldn't attack her immage and Odd would get his butt whupped), the evidence she weighted it with to tip the scales in her favor was "I don't know how many life points I have left." My point there is, nobody bothered to check, and nobody even thought to check.
As to today, yes, I agree, the end was rather pointless (and clueless) of Odd. Made for a funny Ulrich reaction, though. :D My previous thoughts: http://forums.toonzone.net/showthread.php?p=1259866#post1259866

this was the first time i saw amnesia too. it kinda freaked me out how ulrich kept having those flashbacks. like in the fugitive when that guy is having flash back s of his wife dying.
it was so awesome when sissy was playing with ulrichs hair........ i was loving that. but then she made him eat cookies int eh park with her? is that like her idea of a perfect date? sitting on a bench in the park with a guy who doesn't know his own name forcing him to eat cookies? SHE MADE HIM EAT COOKIES! that is so wrong. its like "sooo you don't remember anything huh? well have a cookie!" that jsut makes me mad. sissy needs some lessons in romance.
ha ha ulrich in lyoko with no memory. he busts his butt on teh ice, almost stabs odd to death, and can't understand why aelita left after he saved her.(maybe he expeted her to give him a "thank you" kiss.ha ha)
the wierd thing was he felt no feelings of love toward yumi. still even without a memory you would think he would be jsut a little sparked there. in lyoko i kept expecting him to ask odd "hey whos that girl over there" " thats yumi" "oh, shes hot!"

One thing at a time. He just arrived in Lyoko. The surrealism would be overwelming.
He did remember Yumi in his flash backs, and he showed concern when she died.
Urich's walk to the warehouse is makes good tv. It also provides some background, through the flashbacks, on how they found Xana if you were paying attention to them.

I know this is going back a LONG ways, but I've been thinkin...
It seems Jim forgot what happened, but if that's the case how come the other four always remember things even after the time resets? It seems that whatever protects their memories should now also protect Jim because he became part of their group.
Okay, I havn't watched every ep, and maybe it hasn't been shown yet in the story, but considering both odd and Yumi exzibit psychic abilites, could it be that all 4 of the group have some sort of increased mental capability related to esp that seperates them out to protect their memory?
Just a thought, but it might explain things, and give some interesting things to look forward to if right.

i been thinking about this too.
i think that since that comp controlls the time thing or watever, jeremy could have created a program thing or a type of code that he put into the comp so that each one of them would not have the memory loss. and since jim had just become part of the group, jeremy was busy with aelita, and no one bargained on another xana attack jeremy would not have entered a code for jim. that is why he has the memory loss. that is my theory.
hey guys i don't think i'm gona review the episode "killar music" cause i have seen that episode like a million times already on tape. just one ? guys. try and tell me waht Odd is saying at the beginning and end of the show. when he is telling Ulrich about waht song he is listening to. i swear in cannot understand waht he is saying. it sounds something like. "listen to waht i downloaded from teh web. its outa site. under my cover. by r u detmaticks. its a bi track revolution!"
under my cover? thats not the name of the song. r u detmaticks? is that like the guy who wrote it? but xana wrote it. oh i'm so confusssed by odds strangled voice.

what did Jeremy mean today when he set the return cordinates? can he control how far back the time warp goes :confused: I always thought it set back to just before Xana activated a tower
I think he can set the time back to an hour when he is certain that the XANA problem hadn't started yet, which may only be a few hours or less. With out the manual set by Jeremie, I'm guessing that there is a "default" time of perhaps 12 to 24 hours. They probably wouldn't want to relive an entire day over if they didn't have to, or they'd be falling asleep in the middle of the day.
As for why only Yumi, Ulrich, Odd and Jeremie remember anything about the XANA problems, I have a theory. Perhaps when they first discovered the super calculator silo in the factory, Jeremie or Aelita added a bit of code to the virtual DNA of each person who got scanned the first time, to allow them to remember the past. We don't know that Jeremie didn't try out the scanners himself when they first found it. He usually just stays out because he is the only one who has mastered the system (and he's not very atheletic either).
OR.... theory two, the super calculator somehow can wrap each member of the team in a personal time bubble so while they are transported back in time, they are still protected from the effects of the reversal. Notice that often whatever bad is happening freezes in place once Aelita enters CODE LYOKO (even laser beams), but the kids are still free to react with relief. Though one exception that I've noted was in "Plagued" when the rats were just about to jump upon the other kids on the roof, the rats froze but one boy was still quivering and whining.
One down side to the protective time bubble thingie is that since they are protected from the time reversal, they are still aged while everyone else in the world gets a few hours younger. Add up enough XANA attacks and Ulrich, and Odd could end up a year older than their own classmates in both body and mind. Not to mention suffering from permanent jet lag from reliving days over again without sleep before it starts over.

Okay, had to come back and give my review of this episode, since a storm knocked out the power the day "The Robots" first aired at my place.
I'm wishing I hadn't missed it, because this episode represents the most offensive efforts XANA has ever staged. Attacking the gang in the real world with an 'adult-sized' robot, while Aelita's jumping over gorges and avoiding not one, but TWO different types of creatures.
If you wanted an episode full of romantic tendencies and who's got the hots for whom, you got it in this one. Herb making his robot a 'very ugly' homage to Sissi. After winning the first time, Nikolas surprisingly 'copping a feel' of Sissi (may I add, in front of her dad, the principal... how did he miss that?). Herb blushing after being complimented by Yumi after he helped disable the giant robot. Wow... a lot of surprises here.
If you wanted an action-packed adventure... you got it here too (as mentioned above). Geese... I was worried that Aelita's was going to have to get to the tower all alone. Ulrich and Yumi having to run all over the place to avoid being captured and killed by that giant robot.
Talk about a contest! Here I was thinking it was a 'Who could build the best robot' competition, but instead they also had to win a basketball game with it. Ingenious. How many schools would think to do that?
On a lighter note, I should note that Sissi's 'gang' is more like an entourage. Or adoring admirers, I might add. Speaking of which... why hasn't Theo joined them? And why didn't Herb get booted off after this episode?
(On yet another note, did anyone notice the changes in two Miguzi bumpers? The 'hide-and-seek' bumper, which originally featured 'TMNT' on the screen, now has 'Lyoko.' And the 'Erin watches TV' bumper, the change was from 'Totally Spies' to 'Teen Titans.' Nice to see Miguzi's trying to freshen up things a little bit, but new bumpers over modified ones, please.)

As for Nicolas, I thought he was tickling Sissi under the armpit (to maker her stop?) For some reason I think he's afraid of Herve. I'll have to watch again.

Sorry about making back-to-back posts, but I'm guessing that most of the Code: Lyoko fans pass through here at least once a day (Monday-Friday, at the very least), so I wanna make a comment about all of the extraneous threads lately in the CN forum.
Liking a show is good. Clouding up the boards with stupid topics is bad. I won't be naming names... they know who they are.
Find other places to do these threads, like the RPG board, for example. You are setting a bad example for the dedicated, intelligent fans who enjoy watching the show but are being given a bad name by the wasteful few.
A lot of people base their liking of a show AND their fanbase depending on what their fanbase acts like. The action of the certain few 'childish' individuals have endangered any hope of gaining the respect of those who are on-the-fence or already dislike 'Code: Lyoko.' It also hurts those newbies, such as myself, who joined the board to discuss this show and many others that we watch on the various networks.
I hate to rant, and I'm generally a nice person... but you guys need to shape up or ship out.

thank you for saying that. I was just going to make a post about that. Yes, I kinda like the show (just because there is a lot of taboo stuff in here, and that there are a lot of good ideas, music, vo, and translation issues aside)
but even I will admit, a lot of people are making lyoko fans look bad, I mean really bad. I mean, I am a guy, an adult, and I enjoy it. The actions of the minority make many lyoko fans appear to be
11-14 year old women/men (in other words, hormonally challenged teens)
again pretty good show with a lot of good ideas...
to return back on topic, I must admit, I never saw this episode or routine. This ep...hey touchy feely....lol
seriously though the taboo stuff is real subtle, and you have to look or you will miss it. Which is why I kinda enjoy watching the show. I keep thinking to myself, how taboo are they going to get?
teens in their bra and panties? pinching of breasts? What is next is all I ask? And why wasn't this (like taboo stuff) on toonami again? They barely wanted to show the God references to Big O...and really didn't want to show the greek gods ark in cyborg 009...
all we need now is some bad words, and fanservice, and lyoko would be like a japanese anime

Well one way to create a powerful magnet is to coil a wire and pass a strong electrical current through it. XANA did that by taking over 29 power plants. Then it was just a matter of causing all that power to somehow go through a circle pattern through the Paris power grid (the wire) with the campus at the nexus.

(resident physics geek)
Electro-magnetism and gravity are two completely separate and unrelated forces. Einstein attemped to discover a universal theory that could include all four, gravity, electro-magnetism, weak nucleur, and strong nucleur. Currently string theory is being considered but not yet proven.
A superconductive material can be suspended in a magnetic field but cannot leave the field and defy gravity.
More than you really wanted to know. It is a really cool show but all of the science is very weak. The Lyoko battle with Yumi using TK and Aelita's little trick is my favorite part.

This has to be one of my favorite episode.
wow ulrich acts like he's never seen cleavage before.
him and emily made a really good couple. i mean at least they are the same heght. but ulrich really can be mean, he was just using emily to get back at yumi for ignoring him alittle too much.
ya know jeremy says that yumi and emily are both a year older than ulrich. the thing is though, i have seen emily in other episodes where she was in the same class as the guys. but yumi is in 10th grade. that means emily must have failed a grade. that is interesting.
that was cool when all the scenery went red to insinuate the anger between the two of them.
wow when ulrich and yumi are mad they are really are mean to each other. dude this is like the only episode where jeremy yells at anyone. ha ha it is casue he loves aelita so much. he doesn't want her to die. lol
ohhh aelita tried to make a joke and they just ignored her. ohh taht is mean.
dude ulrich can count. Jeremy doesn't need to explain that since Odd lost 50 lp he only has 50 left.
ok when jeremy screamed he sounded like a girl but he has a really deep voice(?)
awww yumi and ulrich really do like each other. i noticed though that they have really small mouths in lyoko. lol. it is good that they kissed(almost kissed) in lyoko cause they are the same height.in the real world yumi's mouth is like at ulrichs forehead. but i am wondering...........exactly where was Odd when all this love was happening? he should have been right there, cause he was watching yumi kill the crab. so he should have seen.
one more question. What did Emily say right before the end of the show? it sounded like "Meat Loaf Grand" gosh i hate it when i can't tell what they are saying.

Yumi and Emily may be the same age, but they don't have to be in the same grade. Emily may be younger when compared to Yumi, in terms of months and days, of course. For example, let's say Yumi was born in July and Emily in January, meaning Yumi's six months older. That's enough of a difference to allow Yumi to start school (1st grade), but make Emily wait until the start of the next school year. At least, that's the way I take, especially if European age requirements of when to start school are the same as American ones are.
awww yumi and ulrich really do like each other. i noticed though that they have really small mouths in lyoko. lol. it is good that they kissed(almost kissed) in lyoko cause they are the same height.in the real world yumi's mouth is like at ulrichs forehead. but i am wondering...........exactly where was Odd when all this love was happening? he should have been right there, cause he was watching yumi kill the crab. so he should have seen.
Good question... where was Odd, exactly?
And one more thing... I found it funny how the crew use the whole 'return to the past' gimmick to play mind tricks on Sissi. Poor girl... I feel sorry for her.
Well, not completely sorry. :anime:

What did Emily say right before the end of the show? it sounded like "Meat Loaf Grand" gosh i hate it when i can't tell what they are saying.
I think it was something like "Ain't love grand?" or "Isn't love grand?"

The mind tricks on Sissy was funny, but, yeah, I feel sorry for her too. Always getting the short end of the stick in everything.
And what of Ulrich and Yumi, you ask? They make a good couple, mostly because they both can understand each other. Yumi can tolerate Ulrich's bad attitude and Ulrich appreciates how smart Yumi is.

This has to be one of my favorite episode.
wow ulrich acts like he's never seen cleavage before.
him and emily made a really good couple. i mean at least they are the same heght. but ulrich really can be mean, he was just using emily to get back at yumi for ignoring him alittle too much.
ya know jeremy says that yumi and emily are both a year older than ulrich. the thing is though, i have seen emily in other episodes where she was in the same class as the guys. but yumi is in 10th grade. that means emily must have failed a grade. that is interesting.
that was cool when all the scenery went red to insinuate the anger between the two of them.
wow when ulrich and yumi are mad they are really are mean to each other.
dude this is like the only episode where jeremy yells at anyone. ha ha it is casue he loves aelita so much. he doesn't want her to die. lol
ohhh aelita tried to make a joke and they just ignored her. ohh taht is mean.
dude ulrich can count. Jeremy doesn't need to explain that since Odd lost 50 lp he only has 50 left.
ok when jeremy screamed he sounded like a girl but he has a really deep voice(?)
awww yumi and ulrich really do like each other. i noticed though that they have really small mouths in lyoko. lol. it is good that they kissed(almost kissed) in lyoko cause they are the same height.in the real world yumi's mouth is like at ulrichs forehead. but i am wondering...........exactly where was Odd when all this love was happening? he should have been right there, cause he was watching yumi kill the crab. so he should have seen.
one more question. What did Emily say right before the end of the show? it sounded like "Meat Loaf Grand" gosh i hate it when i can't tell what they are saying.
I hate to say it but Emily is back ground filler. She's often in both Yumi's and Ulrich's class. Millie and Tamia are supposed to be like grade 7 and they are sometimes in the same class as Jeremie, Ulrich, and Odd. Unless this is Yumi's last year there really should be older kids in background at least now and then.
Ulrich didn't really use Emily. Yumi has been putting Ulrich off since "Logbook", he was being shown attention from a pretty girl, no guy will ignore it.
Jeremie also raises his voice and even pushes Ulrich in "Zero Gravity" because he'd rather play soccer than save the world.

this was the very first time I saw the episode "routine" and "zero gravity"
it is interesting. I can sympathesize with ulrich for the mundane schedule of school, lyoko, (do the same thing over again). And what was worse was that he was literally being ignored by all of his friends. for the time, he was the lone gunman.
So, chances are when another girl walks over and wants to hang, I would probably do the same, just for the simple fact that everyone else ditched me. But the episode was interesting, and it was needed. I would also like to say this is one of the first series I ever watched that openly admitted (sorta) to a growing romance so early in the series. I was taken a back a bit because I thought it would be like mundane inuyasha (going on for 200+ eps and the two people can't admit their feelings for one another...talk about annoying!)
interesting episode for the bleeding hearts in the room. The action was, for lack of better words, meh, but seeing that the episode wasn't necessarily centered around the action, I can let it slide.
Now, where was odd at again? *thinks-giving sissi some luvin...lol*

Today's ep was fairly interesting as it shows that odd does have a love interest (at least that's what I took the kiss and all the blushing for.). aparently whoever it was that thought he and sissy should hook up needs to wait on that idea I guess.

Just a thought. Have you ever wondered why the girls in Code Lyoko are mostly obviously taller than the guys. Today's episode was interesting. But yesterday's episode is so much better.
anime_guru
06-25-2004, 06:54 AM
I...just noticed that...
well, one can go along with the theory of maturation that women do develop (in the beginning) at a faster rate than guys, counting for the height of the women being taller than the men, of course before the growth spurt. Then the men will once again be taller than the women...
as it shows that odd does have a love interest
wouldn't call it love interest. Wouldn't love interest represent that the kiss was a mutual thing? I mean odd literally had to kiss her. this could be another one of those cases of mistakes.

Since we'll never see Samantha again, she's just someone to rescue. I liked the ones much better that expanded the characters we already know. Odd saving Millie and Tamia in "Just in Time" or Emily in "Routine" and "Swarming Attack". Theo and Samantha were just a waste of time and didn't really add to the story beyond the one show. Aelita using her creativity when she lost Yumi, her only protector, was cool.

"Theo and Samantha were just a waste of time and didn't really add to the story beyond the one show."
Same thing for Taliea from "Girl of my Dreams" for that matter.
Now for Kat's recap of "Ghost Channel":
After a day of fighting in Lyoko, the past resets. Jeremy comes to class and notices that the others aren't there for some strange reason. Scene shifts. Jeremy, Ulrich, Odd, and Yumi are in class. WTF, you're probably thinking. Turns out the real Jeremy is the one alone without the others. Yumi, Ulrich, and Odd were actually transported into a data-created replica of the boarding school that is located inside Lyoko.
Yumi notices that things are beginning to flash and reset themselves, like Mrs. Hertz and Sissy. She's also suspicious of (the fake) Jeremy. Meanwhile, the real Jeremy back in the real world contacts Aelita and explains the situation. Knowing that the fake Jeremy is XANA and that his friends are wide open to attack, Jeremy transports himself into the fake boarding school via the scanners.
XANA sends fake, data-created, zombie versions of Jim, Herb, and Nicholas out to attack Jeremy. Jeremy escapes. Down in the (fake) supercomputer room, XANA tries to trick Yumi, Odd, and Ulrich into getting into the scanners in order to go defend Lyoko. If they had gone in the scanners, they would have been permanently deleted. But Jeremy bursts into the room at the last minute. Jeremy tries to tell his friends that the fake Jeremy is XANA, but XANA says that the real Jeremy is XANA.
When the real Jeremy says he went into the scanners to get here, XANA exclaims that this is proof that he's the fake, since Jeremy is too scared to go into the scanners. But Yumi, Ulrich, and Odd say that he would if his friends were on the line and they believe the real Jeremy. XANA freaks out and his face becomes horribly distorted. The zombie Jim, Herb, and Nicholas appear and tie the kids up with wires that begin draining them of all their life. XANA laughs and in a distorted voice screams out "YOU ARE ALL GOING TO DIE!!!"
But just in time, Aelita (who is back in Lyoko, right outside of the false boarding school) uses some of her powers and destroys the entire place. XANA screams in defeat and everything flashes. Jeremy is back in the real supercomputer room. Ulrich, Odd, and Yumi are back in Lyoko, but have no memory of what happened, so Jeremy explains it to them. Then an army of block monsters appear and the Lyoko team begins to fight them. The end.
Cool, huh? XANA finally shows himself...well, at least, in a manner of speaking.
Hope that helps, Kat! :D

Just in case someone does miss the episode again there are some pics of the 2D Aelita in the photo archives of Club Lyoko at http://tv.groups.yahoo.com/group/club_lyoko/ . Just look in the "Code Earth" album then click on "Aelita".

06-28-2004, 03:45 PM
It's hard to compare the final two eps against the rest in the series, because they have what everyone has been waiting for, Aelita on earth. Though I felt they had Jim become overly aggressive in Code Earth, especially for someone who works with kids, it was a good ending while still leaving room for another great season.

hey mad mod 49 just so that you know i actually saw "Chost Channel" it was i think "Critical Situation" that i didn't see. but thanks anyways kagetsu explained it for me. lol. yeah i got so freaked out by xana. that little episode makes you remember how evil xana really is. and we got to hear a bit of what his voice sounded like. the ending of that show was great cause xana got so evil. lol
I just want to point out that I kinda laughed when Ulrich stabbed the ball thing in it's weak spot and yelled out "Impact." If you've ever watched or read One Piece, you can probably see why that's funny.
Too bad he didn't yell out "Reject."

Mugazi is going to end at the summer i am not very sure
wouldn't be a huge surprise there, because again beside code lyoko, it is all rehash of a lot of stuff that we have already seen. Again, I doubt CN wanted the miguzi run to work, because if they did, they would've at least put on the popular
sd gundam (but then again 2 gundam shows on at the same time-wait they did do that with msg and 08th ms team though)
or any other show to get someone interested. I still question however, what is the demographic for miguzi? Once that is established, perhaps programming would be a bit more conscious
referring back to lyoko, I missed code earth. So, WHEN IS IT COMING ON AGAIN?

but you see her 2D form at the very end of the episode.

Miguzi is targetting young girls. And it's ratings have been pretty good with the group, so it ain't going away any time soon. The one show that seems oddly placed is Ninja Turtles. I mean, how does a show about 4 male ninjas target girls? Maybe girls think turtles are cute...

False start
ok this episode along with code earth were never my favorites. but i think i will discuss a few things about today's episode
i noticed that half of the time that aelita is on earth her eyes are black and the other half they are green inside a black circle.
wow the first time i saw this ep. i didn't notice how short aelita's skirt was. good grief those things really get shorter when you sit down too(personal experiece lol) alot of leg in today's episode. lol
alot of people think that aelita's little thing in math was really complicated. i watched this sceen a few times and it's really not hard at all. no i suck at math even though i am in the hardest one possible, so don't think i am a genuis. lol. really all she did was quote some math rules. and trust me i have learned alot of math rules in school and it still doesn't help me work out the problem. lol
omg i just noticed this but do jeremy and the others not have a Language Arts class? i always see them and hear them talk about math, chemistry, physical science, and once i saw yumi in a forgein language class. and today they menchioned(ok guys i suck at spelling someone please tell me how to spell this word.lol ha ha it looks like a japenese word.) history but still no L.A.
oh and a random ? for you guys please answer if you know the answer. how old are all of them? people keep saying they are 13 and 14. that makes sense with the height thing, but there is no way jeremy odd and ulrich can be in 9th grade when they are only 13. 9th grade is for 14 and 15 yr. olds. unless they were super intelligent and got to skip a grade. i can believe that with jeremy but we know that ulrich gets pretty bad grades. the same goes for yumi. if she is a sophomore(gosh i can't spell) she can't be 14! i'm 14 and i'm just now getting into 9th grade!
oh and one more ? does kadic not have a high schooL? usually 7th to 9th is junior high(6th to 8th is middle school. what a gay name i hated middle school) and 10th to 12th is high school or 9th to 12th. so is yumi in a different building that is supposed to be "the high school" while her friends are in a different building down the street? very confused about these things........................
Master Moron
06-29-2004, 08:36 PM
What a dissapointment, all that and nothings different. Aelita's still in Lyoko, Jim still doesn't remember anything about Lyoko. Ugh...
You know, why on earth did it send them back two days? Doesn't it normally only send them back 1 day? I think I'm beginning to see why they didn't make an origin episode. If they made an origin episode they'd have to explain the rules, however with the show the way it is there are no rules and the writers can make up stories that make absolutely no sense. Ugh...and why were the crabs so much smaller in the real world?
If they make a season 2 they'd better virtualize Sissi within the first few episodes cause she's the only one that could save this show.
Esper Ranger
06-29-2004, 09:37 PM
It "looked" like the story took place over three days and they got sent back two but I think everything happened in a 24 hour period. It seems they materialized Aelita and took her staight to class with them on the same afternoon. Because after Jeremie and Aelita's little "date", the next morning the gang asked her "how was your first night on Earth"? So only one day had passed. Then they reset everything to the morning/afternoon before when Jim cornered them in the dorm.
Still what was really odd was Jeremie walking around without any problems after the school doctor telling him he'd need to stay off his feet for at least a week.
Anyways, I second the vote for Sissi joining the team, though for different reasons.

Back to square one tomorrow with "Teddygodzilla", which I saw for the first time 9 days ago, when Miguzi made its Sunday premiere.
