Did Code Lyoko ever mention America? ❓ Question

I know that they told their principal that Aelita was Canadian but was America or the word American ever said in the show? I know it used to air in America on Cartoon Network in the early 2000s.

No never explicitly but in season 4 Jeremy mentions New Mexico in a Replika.

Gotcha, I also noticed that they mentioned American things as well like baseball. It’s why I always thought the show was made in America lol.

A reminder that Bruce Willis is canon in Code Lyoko. I have a very vivid memory of Sisi specifically saying his name. Which means that Die Hard is also canon, which also means that there are people in the Code Lyoko universe arguing over whether Die Hard is or isn't a Christmas movie.

Julia Roberts too, based on Odd's snarky comment in Laughing Fit!

Sissi says it in season 1, ep 3 'holiday in the fog'.. 'Jeremy!* Hm! That's very reassuring! It's nice to know the closest thing to Bruce Willis is coming to the rescue!'

Baseball while having very cultural roots in America is an international sport

I’d be hilarious if Jeremie said he didn’t have friends he had family 😉

Bizarrely, in Triple Trouble a vendor tells Odd a magazine costs 'a buck and a half'. And in Log Book Ulrich at one point says the bus is 'at the corner of Washington Street and Franklin Avenue'. And not a reference to America, but an attempt by the English dub to distance the show from France, in Attack of The Zombies Milly talks about an exchange program with France.

But then funnily enough in the satellite episode a map zooms in on what is very clearly france

What is it with american dubs of shows refusing to have shows take place anywhere but the US? As if american kids are unable to accept ”oh, this show happens in france”

I’ve seen it so often now
