CLE Episode Six: Suspicions

[Snickie]

Thoughts?

I personally thought it was a bit...meh...for an episode. The skid works, though I wish we could've seen William's reaction to it. Speaking of William, I loved that they're all being nice to him again. =D It's so wonderful! And his interactions with Aelita only strengthens my AxW ship (not as good as JxA but much better than OxA). That shoulder grab and when he saved her from the spiky core interior thing.... omg. Speaking of which, that was a cool touch.

I guess Yumi's in detention or something, but I'm glad that we're seeing someone similar to Herve on the scene even though he was tall and wasn't hanging all over Sissi (when are we going to see her, anyway?).

The attack at the end, though? Lame. So lame. XANA makes triplicate clones, and they have a staredown. One clone does some fancy stuff with the electrical board. And they stare some more. And then the Lyoko warriors finally decide to make a move just as Aelita gets to the completely unguarded tower and deactivates it. Like I said. LAME. It's pretty obvious they needed a spacefiller there.

I liked the Aelita feels with her father (though it's in the wrong place in Carthage). She misses him and is confused. And we still don't learn whether or not he's still alive.

I can't wait for the English subs to come out.

Indeed, the attack was pretty pathetic imo, but I suppose this was one of the episodes where the focus wasn't on the attack but rather on the development of characters/plot/whatever.

Is it bad that even though she's lost her father and is still in mourning and I know I'd feel pretty bad if I was in that position, but I just don't find myself feeling sorry for Aelita. Don't get me wrong, I'm not like "pfft get over it" or "ha take that!" but I just don't feel sorry for her :L omg I'm a horrible person

I love Queen's theory on the attack, personally.

It's great that William has finally been accepted (like, about time, seriously).

I'm really itching to see Sissi. She was one of my favourite characters from S1-4!

I’m completely convinced that the attack in Soupçons was just to fix the sound system.

It was for a good cause; Japan just had a huge storm and Yumi’s cousin’s school burnt down, then everything was going wrong as they tried to set up this last-minute fundraiser party, and the sound system was broken.

So Xana says to itself, “hey, I can control electricity, and those poor students in Japan…but I can’t just fix it, they’d think something was up. So ok, I’ll make three spectres of this weird kid, fix the system ~menacingly~, and then have the spectres stand there and wait for Aelita to deactivate the Tower which I’ve left unguarded <3”

YES!
I believe XANA is fully capable in helping out the kids when he needs to. I mean, he couldn't have just left them all alone and depressed and stuff. He needs them to be around so he can steal their codes! Just like in Hot Shower when he called off the attack, and Common Interest when he delivered the new battery to Jeremie.

I feel like the attacks are all the same now in those final moments leading up to the deactivating of the tower: EPIC STAREDOWN.

By the way, why didn't XANA implant codes in William? The guy was possessed for forever, and as such he's left alone by the others and that makes him a perfect target, especially if the clone XANA took on Yumi's form. Oh the drama that would cause!!!!
And speaking of which, why didn't XANA unleash spectres on Yumi when all the other Lyoko warriors were in the Cortex and otherwise unable to immediately come to her rescue? VULNERABILITY ASGHASGLKH.

And one more thing: XANA wants the source codes, no? Even though he was helping Yumi out with the sound system and stuff, he could've still taken code from Aelita while she was on Lyoko all by her lonesome. How? Who was our bestest friend in the whole wide world throughout all of seasons two and three? No, not Franz Hopper, dweebs. I mean the scyphozoa. Blubber face. Seafood. Giant squid. Whatever you want to call it. Surely the producers of CLE haven't abandoned that amazing creation.....have they? ;_;


I can't wait for the English subs to come out on a site that will actually play it. -.- I had no idea about the storm in Japan until I saw it in Queen's journal just now. (You can tell I'm on Tumblr a lot, right? -.-)

I think Queen’s theory is now my head canon…

I also thought it was too easy for Alita to take care of the tower. I would have loved to see her have to fight all on her own...
