Moonscoop to produce fifth season of Code Lyoko

June 9, 2011 by Gary Rusak

Paris, France-based Moonscoop is set to produce a new live action 3D version of its animated series Code Lyoko with co-pro partners France Télévisions and Canal J.

The new season, Code Lyoko Evolution, will be the fifth in the series.

Moonscoop has developed an extensive licensing and merchandising campaign around the IP including an upcoming live show to launch in Spain.

In addition, the company is developing a MMORPG in collaboration with CJ Internet. The gaming experience will include full 3D, real role-playing universe and a full combat system.

Are you sure about the “live action” part? As in staring live people instead of drawn, cartoon people? I’m confused.

Right now they’ve said that the Lyoko parts will be in the usual 3D animation, but that the regular scenes when they’re not in Lyoko will be in live action. There’s a lot of concern among the fans, though, so MoonScoop hasn’t made the decision final.

I’m against the notion of Live Action. :/ It’s good for a movie, but a new series? No..
It’ll be way different. Hopefully they do throw out that terrible idea.

Live action? I hope it doesn’t happen because the show is so much better as 2D animation.

but i wish they make their heads normal size though.

Rofl, that’s what a cartoon is! Completely unproportional! XD
Well, is Code Lyoko really a cartoon? It kind of seems like it’s in-between a cartoon and an anime… Though, they better pitch the live action. That’ll completely screw it over.

Live action or animated, I’m just glad that we get a season 5! I hope the loose ends from the last season are tied up, (like the Men in Black, and Aelita’s Mother) we see Odd, Yumi, Ulrich, Aelita and Jeremy pound some new monsters of XANA’s.

Code Lyoko forever!

NO, NEVER EVER. Please don’t make it a live-action. I was hoping you could continue where you left off, or something, but don’t make it live-action. The idea is cool, but only if you hadn’t made it into a cartoon already. Maybe a movie, that would be neat, but I would prefer a t.v series please.

The real world would be actor, and lyoko would be the same

have you guys seen the concept art of the MMOG? Looking at that stuff, everything about live action dosen’t seem so bad.

Okay every great TV series has been ruined by thinking were gona try somthing new. Plus if people who have never seen code lyoko go back to its roots they are either gona be thrown. And there gona turn into those annoying fans that like action and all that BS opposed to the story’s roots and traditions. heres the thing with Live action your LIMITED. heres animation the sky is the limit Moonscoop should not do this into the future thing. Change is only good if the majority likes it. and the last thing we need is trashy whores and douches ruining a very very VERY good show because they will either jack up the story to where its to easy to understand or go the primetime TV way were you only need to watch the end of the episodes or jump right into the series whenever you want.

Honestly I don’t think this is as terrible an idea as everyone’s making it out to be. Most of the crazy action stuff happened in Lyoko, so they wouldn’t be replacing the combat with awkward cheap live action. I mean, yes it will be different, but until we see any kind of footage, I don’t think its right in this case to completely condemn the idea outright.

BULLSHIT! I WANT ANIMATION! NOT LIVE ACTION!!!!

Drop the live action it just ruins it people want to see the regular characters not live action characters besides u always get the best reaction from anime they have funnier faces and everything when it comes to them u just don’t feel as connected with the character as much when it is live action I for one won’t watch it then I love it just not enough for that big of a change

i dont think they should make it live action since they already made it in cartoon/anime form it will just be horrible i mean come on. I think we should all email moonscoop and tell them the idea is ridiculous! >:D

I agree
LyokoWarrior4Evr

I actually think that the live action will be kind of cool. But I agree with all of you, the animationis really so much better. I do like their new faces in Lyoko though, they just find more ways to make Ulrich look even more adorable! And what’s with William? Is he a zombie in Lyoko? Seriously? That’s epic!
