DVD Reviews of Code Lyoko: The Complete First SeasonDVD Review: Better With Time Summary: 4 Stars"Code Lyoko" strikes many as, odd. The animation style really stands out amidst the anime-style artwork that many shows boast today, and the switch mid-episode into CGI images is another difference.
However, while the initial season is repetitive, Code Lyoko is an absolute joy to watch. It deals with a group of students living in the French boarding school of Kadic Academy. They're four very different people, bound together by two things: Aelita, and the virtual world she lives on, Lyoko.
The 1st season doesn't really introduce the main characters. Instead, it jumps right into the middle of the action with "TeddyGodzilla" and over time we're introduced to the central plot of the season. Jeremie, a gifted student - finds a SuperComputer and an old warehouse. His curiosity getting the better of him, and he turns it on. Inside, is a totally unique virtual world known as "Lyoko" which has been divided into four sectors- and contains a sole inhabitant. A virtual AI computer program known as "Aelita". Soon - the threat of XANA is introduced. XANA is a computer virus that can possess objects at will, and uses them frequently to attack the main characters.
On Lyoko, the students become colorful warriors to combat XANA's monsters in creative, CGI action sequences. Jeremie tries to come up with a code to allow Aelita to live with them on Earth, so they can shut down the Computer for good.
Where the First series of the show falls short, is the repetitive nature of the episodes. There are some wonderful exceptions. While the plot of the 1st series doesn't keep you watching, the characters do. Each one is unique, and watching them interact as a team is great fun. The plot thickens in the later seasons, as new mysteries are uncovered and new characters are introduced. The CGI too, improves rapidly in S2 of the show. Either way- it's worth a watch. You don't have to be a kid to enjoy the fun either. ;)
DVD Review: Code Lyoko: The Complete First Season Summary: 5 StarsWow i love this series. It is great to have this on DVD. Now I can watch at any time my favorite show. Great buy! Must Have for a Code Lyoko fan.
DVD Review: Yeahhh! Summary: 5 StarsTo some, the world of Lyoko is a pathetic excuse for a tv show. I strongly believe that these people have only seen mere fragments of episodes, only resulting in judgement such as "this show is weird."
I remember the first day I ever saw this show on tv. I remember thinking "this show has got to be stupid." After watching for about 10 minutes, I was exposed to the virtual world that this array of strange characters had entered via a supercomputer. Since that day, I have been engulfed in the series, thus creating a hardcore Lyoko fan.
The first season has been released for some time now, but just got my paws on it today. I'm awaiting the complete second season, and hope it comes out in the near future. If not, I'll be severely discouraged. The seasons following the first have much more superiority and speed, but lack the originality and simplicity of the original's episodes.
I read another review that stated the episodes were out of order. I thought this was inaccurate because the first season had no order until the episode "Code: Earth" was presented, only due to the fact that there was a connecting episode, "False Start."
As the Code Lyoko series evolves, it unfolds into more confusion for some, but more curiosity and interest for others. The episodes begin to connect as a whole, forming a situated storyline that keeps the viewers begging for more.
Hoping for season two on DVD. Long live Lyoko! (P.S. Odd rules!)
DVD Review: Kids love it! Summary: 5 StarsBought this for my kids and they love it. Even though the voices are slightly different from the later episodes, they don't care! I would recommend this to any Code Lyoko fan.
