Tomorrow, the series celebrates its 20th anniversary!
20 years of a tight-knit community! 20 years ago, the Garage Kids project became Code Lyoko, and we can't thank Thomas Romain, Tania Palumbo and Carlo de Boutiny enough for all their hard work.
While the license continues to sleep wisely at Dargaud, no sequel, reboot or soft reboot of the license is to be deplored. And indeed, why produce more? The license continues to bring in new fans even as it stands! The wisest would say that this is probably for the best, after all, Code Lyoko is a product of its time, and even if its themes are more valid than ever (the subject of AI among others), its delightfully retro atmosphere (the Nokias!) cannot be reproduced.
The most incredible thing about this situation? The community has never been so active (apart from fan fiction)! In fact, the 20th anniversary is being celebrated by a host of projects, so don't hesitate to take a look around the Internets!
Frontière Virtuelles : Revirtualisation https://www.youtube.com/watch? v=QUVitO8s5jkThis year's flagship project is, of course, Code Lyoko: Frontière Virtuelles (CLFV), a sound fiction project (the older generation will refer to it as an mp3 saga), completed in a year and a half. This is the first episode of a totally original story set several years after the destruction of Xana. The actors give their all to bring the Lyoko-Warriors back to life, through top-quality sound staging. Such ambitious projects that follow through on their ideas are rare, requiring very good organization, and clearly the Audiodidact collective and this particular project, led by Evil Goat, are not on their first try! The icing on the cake for those who prefer to read, subtitles are also included in the upcoming video. No English version yet sadly...
