Jimbo in Lyoko

[Darkborn offline]

Oh, just the tranformation part brought back horrible horrible memories.


When I baby sat my cousin who would no stop watch that show. I had to watch it with him or he would cry and I would not get payed. I hated it.

[TB3]

No offence Taelia but I think Jim having the power of Transformation is a bit...sad. Think about it - yu'd need a permenantly activated tower just to run the program.

Also, hadn't we decided he'd have lightening based powers? Those would be cool.

And now I'm getting off topic. Sorry Shanester.

[Taelia offline]

That's alright, TB3. ^^ Being a Sailor Moon fanatic for most of your life can do that to ya.

Got any other ideas?

[Virus_Xana offline]

how about jim get scanned like the rest of the lyoko guardians?

[Taelia offline]

That's much better. A large scanner would have to be made just for him. Because the normal scanners are too tiny for him to fit.

[Virus_Xana offline]

I just thought it because it seemed the most logical way to go

[Taelia offline]

For some reason, Jim would most likely fight alongside Ulrich when they're in Lyoko.

[Virus_Xana offline]

I think thats because they are both warriors

[Taelia offline]

Exactly! ^^ Every time I watch this one scene in Mortal Kombat: Annihilation, I picture Jim and Ulrich fighting the robot, Cyrax.

[Virus_Xana offline]

That would be so cool to watch them fight Cyntax.

*idea* That can be the name of a bad guy in a future episode.

dunno, if Aelita's dad managed to scan himself in I think Jim would just fit...

Cyntax sounds menacing and powerful! great name for a bad guy.

Okay, I admit it. I'm a Sailor Moon fa---how'd you guess?

I love sailor moon!! first anime I ever watched(it aired in the US when I was 4)

Did you guys know that Jim's nickname may come from "yojimbo", which is Japanese for "bodyguard" or "protector"? =D It fits, and his armor is perfect, and so is his weapon.

Here's a webpage I found that proves it!:

haha Jimbo in Lyoko! Awesome!

well done, I like the style you drew it in and the determined expression he has!

what sorta weapon does he carry?

He's carrying a staff (called bo in Japanese) that has the ability to shoot unlimited amounts of electrical power. I PMed TB3 about adding a future upgrade to it a month or two after he joins the gang.

He sometimes uses his staff to create thunderstorms capable of wiping out many of XANA's monsters, especially his spectres.

[Virus_Xana offline]

it sounds like with that kind of power he would take a lot of xana's creatures out.

[Taelia offline]

Exactly.

Thunderstorm
Jim uses this attack to shock and/or disable the enemy. He takes out his bo and, calling on the power of thunder and the god of lightning, Zeus, he shoots his electricity at his intended target.

Ofuda
Ofuda are white slips of paper that contain Japanese writing (kanji) that are used to ward off evil spirits. In Team Lyoko's case, they are used to deal with XANA-possessed people. Jim's ofuda are gold with brown kanji on them.

That is a funny picture.
