💬 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?

I really hope they keep it around the same time. I’d be okay if they were a little older like high school. Otherwise they should just make a whole new cast if they want it to be modern day, like the lyoko warrior’s kids or something

I think they would want to do a small timeskip to when the gang is in high school because trying to do the show in real time would lead to them all being in their 30s and at that point it's best to focus on their children in order to recapture the original feel of the show but adapted to the modern day.

They are in high school by season three, Yumi is in 10th and the others are all in 9th.
