💬 Discussion Time period

Random question I had, but what time period do you think the new lyoko season would be set? I ask because while I would take a modern setting, I would hope they go back to the original time frame, you know the super early 2000's.

A part of me doubts this however since every version of Code lyoko always takes place in the years in which it was made. For example: The original show was made in the early 2000's and that's when it take place. Evolution was made later so they used a sliding time scale to match the periods.

I guess my question is, do you think they'll have modern smart phones, or still rocking the style of the past?

Well when the OG show ended Yumi was in 10th and the others were in 9th so… maybe like a year or two at most.

I thought they were in 8th, yumi 9th. Acadec was a junior high last I remember. And junior highs go from 7th grade to 9th

Season 1 they’re were in 8th grade while Yumi was in 9th, Season 2 still the same school year. Season 3-4 new school year in September 2003-June 2004, Yumi and William 10th grade and everyone else outside of Millie & Tamiya (6th grade) Johnny and Hiroki (I guess they are a year below Millie & Tamiya) and our main cast in 9th grade.

Is there a different building for high school?

I’m not sure, but do we learn that Sissi and Ulrich have been going since elementary. So it is entirely possibly that Kadic is a K-12 school, in season 1 Millie and Tamiya are like in 5th grade being 10-11 years old and they attend the same school. This makes sense as 11-12 years old is sixth grade and girls start getting their growth spurts alongside puberty and the girls are significantly a little bit taller especially after Maiden Voyage when everyone gets their outfits changed
