Preston Ward Condra Watches Code Lyoko

by Preston Ward Condra

I binge watch through the entire series of Code Lyoko. Aside from seeing 1-2 episodes, I'm going in completely blind to this series. It's a show, I would never see anyone say anything good or bad about at all. I'm confused to as to whether or not, it's an anime or a cartoon. Cartoon Network never even aired the finale back in 2007. A smorgasbord of a project. Let's do this.

30. Episode 27: New Order

Episode 27 - New Order

It's time for Season 2. Let's go!

I hope we get an origins episode with how these characters first met.

Made by MoonScoop - again a France company.

No real plot holes so far in the story. That's why I feel like I'm continuing my time with watching this.

When the music get so upbeat?

The voice actors sound a little bit different. Like did someone on the voice actors guild, take place for someone else? Some of the characters sound...off.

I'm 90% certain Ulrich got a new voice actor for this season. He's insufferable to listen to. (Never mind, it's the same person Barbara Weber-Scaff.)

Yumi screams "AAAAHHH!" at the monster. Cringe.

The spider monster attacking our heroes, escapes and we are taken back to the real world.

Aelita is given her own room at the boarding middle school. Is there really such a thing as a boarding middle school?

Aelita's gives herself a fake ID at the school. Her full name is Aelita Stones and is Odd's cousin from Canada.

A new character, William is seen hanging out with Yumi. He got kicked out of his last school.

As Odd would translate it anyway.

Ulrich looks displeased at his premise.

What happened to the voices, seriously? It's only been only year. Jeremy and Sissy also sound different.

William got kicked out of his "old school" for making "too many posters" of something. It was never clarified to what it is.

Aelita walks into a abandoned house, in the forest and screams for help.

Odd, Ulrich and Yumi venture inside.

Xana locks Ulrich and Yumi in a supposed boiler room. Ulrich yells at Odd to have Aelita go to Lyoko to deactivate the tower.

Cool steampunk music in the background as Jeremy takes them to Lyoko. Very good song right here.

Odd destroys the spider monster in a lame, hovercraft Back To The Future sequence.

Aelita deactivates the tower.

Return To The Past Now. End episode.

Overall Rating: 5.4/10 - Well, I wasn't totally displeased with the episode. But a lot of nothing happened here. Not a good introduction to William either. He got kicked out of his old school "for too many posters" that's literally all were given here. Whatever.
