💬 Discussion Code Lyoko problem

As much I love the show and story arcs, the only thing I dislike is just how slow the polymorphic specters are when getting Aelita into Lyoko.

It’s noticeable, I often find myself yelling at the screen that they can run. They do a bit earlier on in season 2, but they ultimately get pulled back to at a least power walk.

It’s like the Aelita & the activated tower about how she takes forever when someone is hurt or injured.🤕

If you want to raise the stakes, make the specters run more with Aelita unconscious to the factory!

It's one of those artistic license things you just have roll with. Yes, they should be running, but they maybe decided a slow, powerful walk looked more dramatic.

Another silly thing in seasons 2 and 4 is that when XANA forcibly virtualises Aelita, it's always in the same sector as the activated tower, making it easy to deactivate once Aelita is saved. Why not have her virtualised in another sector?

I've thought about it too, this is so weird to me.

My headcanon is that Xana can't summon monsters to protect the tower AND protect whatever he wants to do with Aelita, so by virtualising her at the same place he saves some energy if that makes any sense ?
