In the first season, they also tried to bring a virtual being trapped on Lyoko, Aelita Schaeffer to Earth.

Old Anime, New Ideas.... and it looks like it's coming back.

Long story short, I fell in love with this anime right off. Sure there were things I questioned.... like how could Xana control a bus that seemed "off the grid" or some other such questions. However, the fact that characters from a virtual world could come to our world (or so it seemed) and that the mystery around those virtual to real-world characters never really got completely answered. There were answers here and there, but they only served to make you want to know more, or make you ask more questions. The writers of this series were masterful in giving you just enough to keep you interested, yet not enough to make you think that there was little (if anything) that they could do from that point on.

What is more, though I haven't been able to completely confirm it, it seems that a new series called "Code Lyoko: Evolution" is scheduled for 2012. A post I found on ToonZone (http://www.toonzone.net/forums/showthread.php?283038-2012-Code-Lyoko-Evolution) said:

"To all Lyoko-fans,

Today it is a great pleasure to finally confirm that we will be producing a brand new 26 episodes series of: “Code Lyoko Evolution”!!!

Your heroes will come back like you’ve never seen them before!!"

Some may say that Xana had been defeated, and I agree. But as most of us geeks and manga addicts know, a villain can always come back, especially if he/she/it is "electronic". What is to say that Xana did not store bits of himself around the web in such a way as not to be detected and, if those bits weren't "reset" or "updated" by Xana on a regular schedule that they would go and search each other out and reform Xana.

OR, Maybe some company bent on taking over the world found Xana when still in it's infancy stages and made a copy, reprogrammed him so that they can control him and took the absence of Xana as an opportunity to release their version of him.

OR, for that matter, why is Xana the only villain? It could be someone completely different.

In any case, I am happy to see that one of my favorite Animes is making a come back. I just hope they don't destroy it in the sequel as many sequels do.
