Anyone remember Code Lyoko's 'A Hair's Breath Away' (Ep 13)?
It's one of my favorites for multiple reasons, one of them being how Odd is utilized. He doesn't go to Lyoko this time around, he's trapped in the crumbling dorms with Milly and Tamiya.
Now, usually Odd play the levity man of the Lyoko Warriors. Slipping in a joke or a wisecrack to make his friends feel better about the immense pressure they are under when constantly fighting a malicious supercomputer out for their blood.
But... in THIS situation, there's none of that.
Odd Della Robbia is all business. Knowing that both Milly and Tamiya, two young girls who are (reasonably) scared out of their wits and facing possibly lethal circumstances, Odd's funny guy demeanor drops completely, leaving his caring, driven, and most of all, responsible self, to shine through.
(Also, I really love the "big brother role" the show sometimes gave Odd when it came to those two, especially Milly. I wish they had expanded on it more, but I'm happy it was there all the same).
Have a redraw to experience my love for this episode.

Code Lyoko is one of those shows where you step away for a bit, it comes back to you, and you think “it wasn’t actually that intense. I’m just misremembering, how I felt when I last saw it as a kid that’s all.”
Then you watch it.
And no, no actually, I remembered correctly. They almost drove into a nuclear power plant, a military laser as pointed at them, they team up with the big bad to rob the government, the man characters have a near death experience every day, it’s very much implied that deaths on Lyoko is very similar to the real thing, literal men in black came after Aelita’s family, William lost months of his life, Jeremy was torturing himself to keep his friends safe on the other side of the screen, Odd almost drowned, Yumi and Ulrich were nearly boiled alive.
Also, you remember how hard the intro goes.

i'm a bit late BUT! happy 20th anniversary to code lyoko!
this show was my first hyperfixation and also my first time participating in fandom spaces and was just in general a HUGE part of my formative years, to the point where it's not even nostalgic because it's just an enormous part of my life.
i'm currently rewatching the series and looking forward to many more decades of code lyoko taking over my brain whenever i think about it!

I know Evo has the reputation of being a raging dumpster fire but I'm actually curious on if anyone else has actually watched it all the way through.
