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.

101. Episode 92: Cold Sweat

Episode 92 - Cold Sweat

Yumi's Brother: If you were a tool, what would you be?

Yumi: Umm...

Yumi's Brother: Are you still in love with Ulrich?

Yumi: I may be a tool but, you will always be a fool.

lol

Yumi finds an embarassing photo of herself, published in the school's newspaper.

Odd posted the picture in the paper but, Ulrich takes the fall for him.

Jeremy calls for everyone to head to Lyoko.

Xana has launched an attack from "his own" ice sector.

Xana sends William out - like he's Xana little puppet to attack Yumi and Odd.

Aelita and Ulrich head out to deactivate the tower.

A game of cat and mouse between the two groups, trying to hide and Jeremy advises them, to attack only when necessary.

Odd and Yumi find some kind of brain being, stored inside the ice sector.

Aelita heads inside and deactivates the tower. 12 minutes into the episode. Pretty early to do so.

Aelita stumbles across, some big news, while inside the tower.

That specific tower has various codes related to William being controlled by Xana.

If Aelita can modify/delete/destroy/add/subtract or what have you to some of the codes, then William will be free of Xana's control.

Aelita does so accordingly.

Odd and Yumi continue to venture inside the lab. Starts and stops with them, as they get impeded by magnetic locks in the lab, that Jeremy has to shut down manually.

Yumi: Why do you think, Ulrich shared that stupid photo?

Odd: Love can make people, do stupid things.

The pair head inside deeper in the lab.

They find some kind of machine with 12/13 wires attached to it.

Jeremy suspects, it's being used for something big.

A gigantic monster begins chasing after Ulrich and Aelita.

The gigantic monster easily defeats and swats Ulrich and Aelita away.

Jeremy calls for Yumi and Odd to leave the lab immediately.

Odd nicknames it "Colossus"

No Return The Past Now it seems.

Yumi talks to Ulrich, that Ulrich only published the embarrassing photo to the school to get her attention.

Yumi: I guess if you wanted a fight between us, I would think about you all the time. You don't need to do that to get my attention.

Yumi kisses Ulrich on the cheek.

Yumi: Next time, try actually talking to me, if you want my attention.

Whoa.

Odd then suddenly feels a guilt trip and tells Yumi the truth.

Yumi then extracts her revenge by, putting an embarrassing photo of Ulrich and Odd, together in the paper.

End episode.

Overall Rating - 5.2/10 - I really don't know what to think here. Got off to a bit of slow, rocky start. I'm glad Yumi got her revenge on the two and Odd told the truth at the end. Still, it was a filler episode, aside from introducing us to the Colossus monster and possibly William no longer being under Xana's control. William ran away in angst and screamed at the top of his lungs, during and after the fight. With three episodes left to go, let's just say, the quality of these episodes goes "up" from here.
