Odd Della Robbia
Odd is, well, odd (hence the name). Odd might actually be spelled "Od" (though no version of the show spells it that way) instead and he is called that both because he is odd and that it's a Norwegian male's name). He is the comic relief of Team Lyoko. He makes constant jokes, and prefers to work on music, film, drawing, and other art, or to make jibes at Sissi Delmas, rather than study for his classes. When called into action in Lyoko, however, he can be a very valiant warrior.
One of the things that definitely lends a helping hand when giving Odd the title of the "weird guy" is his passion for the color purple. In reality he wears it from head to toe quite literally. He has a purple stripe in the front of his spikey blond hair (that, surprisingly, is an actual part of his hair as seen in both Unchartered Territory and Revelation), and wears a purple shirt and then purple bellbottom-ish pants. He also wears gold shoes and a gold belt that matches the color of his hair. However, his night clothes (for when he goes to sleep) are red and not purple. His Lyoko attire is fashioned after a cat (despite him having a dog as a pet), with a purple tail and claws to match the rest of his outfit. Despite the feline-like features on his suit, there's a picture of Kiwi on his chest. Upon close inspection of the picture, it shows Kiwi urinating. Odd often draws a similar picture in class when he should be paying attention. He also occasionally runs on all fours, just like a cat/dog, in Lyoko.
Odd fights with "Laser Arrows," which are powerful spearheads that he fires from his arms. In the first season, he could only hold 10 in each arm (20 if Jeremie reloaded them), and on a bad day he would run out at inconvenient times. Jeremie could reload the arrows, but it took time and did little good. In the second season, however, Jeremie was able to give Odd the ability to hold up to 10,000 arrows, pretty much assuring that he would never run out. He also has the power of anticipation, otherwise known as foresight, in Lyoko, which allows him to sometimes see into the future. Unfortunately, he has no control over this power, and it rarely comes to him. In the second season, he never receives a vision. Instead, Aelita is the one receiving visions, though not in the same way. It's possible that he lost or gave up this power in favor of his shield ability and greatly increased arrow capacity.
Odd has managed to go out with nearly every girl in the eighth grade, and, at times, even two at once. However, he doesn't yet have anyone who could be considered a steady girlfriend. In the episode Déja Vu, Odd was talking to, became interested and considering meeting with a girl he met on the internet. To the surprise of many fans, and most especially to Odd, it was Sissi Delmas, the popular girl at Kadic Junior High School. The episode Is Anybody Out There? also hints at the relationship. The first season episodes Log Book and Just in Time briefly hint at the pairing, as well. In any case, by the end of the second season, Odd's reputation has gotten around and his social life takes a nosedive. Most of the girls (except for Sissi) won't even talk to him and those that will usually stop after finding out who he is.
He has a pet dog named Kiwi. The dog hides in his room at school during classes because of a rule at Kadic that prohibits having animals on campus. The rule may change, but, at the current stage of writing, it seems that the rule conflict will probably be ignored. Despite the rule, most, if not all, of the students know Odd has the dog. It would seem that only the teachers are unaware of Kiwi's existence. Jim seems to know (or suspects) that the dog exists, but has never been able to prove it without a time reversion taking place.
Odd is best friend and room mate to Ulrich, though he is also friends with the rest of Team Lyoko. Ulrich just happens to be the one he rooms with. The others have their own rooms.
Odd has a love of food from the cafeteria, usually liking to point out the cafeteria's menu for the day before and after missions. Because of this, he has a reputation among his friends and some of the faculty for being a heavy eater, many times dining on his friends' leftover portions. Various characters have pointed out his unusual stomach capacity through creative comparisons. Such comparisons are "eats as much as an elephant," "is a walking stomach," and "has five stomachs." Despite this, Odd retains his small stature, making him the shortest member of Team Lyoko. Many characters on the show call him "scrawny" because of this, much to his displeasure.
Odd is a capable athlete, as stated by the school nurse, Yolande Perraudin. He has competed in the school's skateboarding and rock climbing competitions, as well as a few friendly games with Ulrich and other students. He also is a capable martial artist as well, though not in quite the same way as Ulrich or Yumi. His skills tend to lean more towards various types of street fighting. This is hinted at in the second season episode Franz Hopper when Odd gets into a boxing match with one of the Creepers, and wins.
Odd's last name is derived from the Italian family of the della Robbia, a Florentine family of sculptors and ceramists active from the 15th to the 16th century. The most well-known of the family's members is Luca della Robbia, an important Italian Early Renaissance Sculptor, who lived from 1400 until 1482. With Odd's interests in drawing, music, and the arts, this is obviously no coincidence. Odd's first name, however, is Norwegian. This has lead to much speculation about the nationalities (and physical appearances, seeing as they haven't appeared) of his mother and father.
Like Jeremie, Odd's voice changed during the course of the show. Near the beginning, it was quite high, but by the middle of the first season, it became a bit lower and a new voice actor (Matthew Géczy) was hired to voice him.
Summary: MAJOR UxY, some OxSam. The students are allowed to stay after over the summer break. Ulrich wants this summer to change everything between him and Yumi. Read and review, please! Flames accepted! Thanks!
