Hi :D episode ask!
65- Final Round
favorite thing about the episode: i mean. them losing everything is absolutely great. we had a losing situation in the season 2 finale but this time it's way bigger and i think it'd hit even harder if they didn't recreate lyoko mostly off-screen (and so fast) but when you're watching the ep it's really great
least favorite thing about the episode: everybody having a dumb excuse for not showing up ig because usually they'd get there wayy quicker. but i guess that's not entirely a bad thing bc honestly a random attack unexpectedly being their doom hits harder and is more realistic since they're constantly fighting. also like i said before i didn't like that the only long term consequence of that finale was william being imprisoned
favorite character in this episode: aelita! she did her best in a situation where she ultimately had to babysit william in the middle of the attack but also i just love her behavior in the ep in general
favorite scene: the ending where they all sit in the hermitage living room defeated in every sense of the world i absolutely love this scene!! but honestly the ep is full of great scenes
favorite line: ulrich saying “well i finished listening” is the absolute banger of bangers, honestly the scenes with him and his father are so incredibly written #tome. also when odd says “can't you like somebody without being in love?” and ulrich says “sure i can but you're totally in love buddy” i looove it they're so fun!!!! and milly and tamiya asking jeremie a bunch of dumbass questions and him answering in the most fuck off manner ever sharon mann killed it 😭😭
overall thoughts: great ep lot of things to take away about characters (ulrich's home situation, odd's reaction to sam lying) and like i said i wish we had more on-screen rebuilding of lyoko so it'd hit harder. i think it'd also hit harder if william was a likeable character in any capacity but i actually kinda like it that he wasn't but they still had to save him. at this point of the show it was way more interesting to see them save somebody they disliked and who wasn't a really good person
