"Ray of Hope" Ending	comment	In the end of the story, things might have gone bad for our heroes. They might have lost the base, have the villain remain victorious, or even have themselves killed. But even amongst all that tragedy, there's still something that assures that it doesn't end there, that there might be a chance to make things better, a ray of hope on the horizon. This differs (almost to the point of being the opposite) from a Bittersweet Ending, where the protagonists win but at a great cost, and is not simply a Downer Ending with a few happy tones either. This trope means that, despite the heroes being soundly defeated, physically and/or emotionally, there's still some hope left; a reassurance that things are not as bleak as they may look, and there could be a chance to turn the tides around, even if everything that has been lost can't ever be truly recovered. Depending on the circumstances, this kind of ending may be (or become), and is often used as, a Sequel Hook, as it is promised that things will get better in the sequel. Though, don't be surprised if the fans are pissed off and unsatisfied anyway, especially if the promised sequel gets stuck in Development Hell and never comes out. Compare to A World Half Full, which is a world that despite its broken state can still be turned for the better, Fling a Light into the Future, which is a more deliberate hope establishment and usually happens at the start of the story, Hope Springs Eternal, which is the very concept of hope always living on no matter the circumstances. Contrast Surprisingly Happy Ending, in which a seemingly bittersweet or downer ending turns into a happy ending thanks to a plot twist, Shock-and-Switch Ending, where it looks like there's going to be a Sudden Downer Ending but it's subverted for comedy, and Esoteric Happy Ending, where the creator thinks they have ended things on a positive note, but the Audience Reaction is Fridge Horror. For more literal rays, see Light Equals Hope. Compare "Eureka!" Moment. As this is an Ending Trope, unmarked spoilers abound. Beware.

However, the Japanese have developed an unmanned device that broadcasts ultrasonic waves lethal to the aliens. It has wiped out some of the aliens and might succeed in destroying all of them.

Whether or not this will be a good or bad thing is up to the reader. While Doomsday Clock shows that its discovery leads to World War III, the live-action Watchmen (2019) series reveals that it was never taken seriously, thus ignored.

But this was better than anyone expected, and probably the best that humanity could hope to win.

"Ray of Hope" Ending / int_1641fd92	comment	Sunrider: Liberation Day ends with the seeming final victory of the Alliance and P.A.C.T. over the Prototypes shattered when they possess Chigara and conduct a massacre at the victory celebration, which both sides blame on each other, causing war to break out again. Kayto sacrifices his ship to save the day, and ultimately the Prototypes are still around- what happened only set them back a bit. Kayto also lost a valuable crew member- Claude, who turns out to be a spy. On top of that, Crow Harbor and the Ryuvian Fleet, the Greater-Scope Villain who the Prototypes were trying to stop, are preparing their own attack on on the galaxy. But Kayto does manage to reunite with his crew, and while they no longer have the backing of the Alliance, they at least have each other, and it is indicated that Claude, actually a god-like entity, plans to interfere to help Kayto in some way. Despite this, the ending still got so much backlash that the [RE]turn DLC has Kayto travel back in time to prevent it from happening and has a more optimistic conclusion.

Epilogue, when all actors have given a grim recap of the past 20 years of Israeli-Palestinian relations (from the optimism of the 1993 peace talks that resulted in the Oslo I Accords through the breakdowns of the late 1990s/early 2000s, including the death of several key negotiators and up to 2016 when the play premiered) and left the stage, only Norwegian diplomat Mona Juul and her husband Terje RÃ¸d-Larsen are left. They face the audience and ask — even through all the doubt and pessimism, even after the breakdown of negotiations — if the viewers can imagine a way forwards.

But at least the town has (in its own way) forgiven the family, and they are still together (and find happiness in playing keep-away with a rag Homer had in his pocket).

The Eighth Doctor has decided Seventh's meticulous, intricate, and entirely creator-controlled model railway is boring, and so he programs the little robot people to form their own construction crews and schedulers, and delights in the emergent phenomenon of a system he could never have designed. But the next time he looks in, the trains are wrecked, the stations are in disrepair and the little robot people are either destroyed or milling about in confusion. For a moment, he thinks his past self was right and wants to shut the whole thing down. Then he notices one group of little robot people are trying to salvage some of the engines, and decides it's still worth waiting to see what happens next.

Atlas and Mantle are permanently destroyed, Salem gains two of the relics, Penny and Vine sacrifice themselves, and Team RWBY falls into the abyss alongside Jaune and Neo. However, most of the kingdom's inhabitants have been evacuated, the heroes believe that a kingdom is its people, not its infrastructure, implying a new kingdom can be built, and the Winter Maiden's power remains with the heroes. Thus, Winter rescues the refugees from the sandstorm and Grimm horde in Vacuo while The Stinger implies that the named characters, as well as the refugees that fell when Cinder first attacked, are trapped in the Void Between the Worlds rather than dead.

Remina herself is pessimistic about their odds of survival, but the hobo muses that since it was already a miracle that they managed to survive all the preceding insanity, another miracle occurring before all their supplies runs out in a year wouldn't be out of the question.

Then when they try to leave the island during a storm, they nearly drown when the inflatable duck raft they're riding gets capsized by a wave, and only survive thanks to Zachariah. Meanwhile, Birdboy is shot dead by the police mere moments after Dinky told Birdboy she loves him. Zachariah takes Dinky and the others back to the island, meaning she's still stuck with parents who love their dog more than they love her and don't seem to realize or care that she almost died twice in one day. However, the scrapyards could potentially become safer thanks to Birdboy decimating the Forgotten Children, and Birdboy's soul guides Dinky to a secret cave containing a tree which produces magic acorns, posthumously entrusting her with his task to bring the island back to life.

MD-5's plan has backfired, Sofia has surrendered all of their information on TASCorp, and Tari's involvement in Lucinia's death —a major uniting factor for the group— has been exposed to them. Tari then willingly enters TASCorp's service in exchange for her friends' safety, and Theo's been captured and used as collateral to ensure her cooperation. However, Tari's friends (Masa pending) still refuse to abandon Tari and promise to come back for her, Belle finds a backup copy of the data Sophia gave them and keeps it to herself rather than give it to Lucks, the Big Bad of the series.

Tirek escapes, gets caught and then gets set free by other factions who hate Equestria which includes Queen Cicada's changelings and Unicornia in exchange for his help and knowledge on his mana drain spell, which he agrees to thanks to a very tempting offer to restore him to his prime and aid him in conquering his homeland to pit the Centaurs against the ponies once more. Twilight's family and friends are running themselves ragged trying to prevent Equestria from falling apart altogether. Spike runs away to Erebus Islands and disappears from their lives altogether. But this whole mess actually cemented Discord's Heelâ€“Face Turn and the fact that Spike now has a goal to get stronger in Erebus Islands so that he can come back and actually help make his mother's dream a reality.

Actually, the very fact that the ideals of slavery are so vigorously defended by the establishment subtly hints that they aren't taken for granted by the people anymore. As for the rest of the world, equality is still celebrated widely, in part actually due to the C.S.A.'s actions making the evils of racism and slavery so apparent, and Canada has not only prospered as an asylum of liberty but has begun to take America's place as the cultural center of the Americas.

The Resistance is down to a freighter's worth of people, and have lost all their warships and fighters. None of the Resistance's allies answered the call to help them. The Resistance may be a lot weaker, but it's still going. Rey has the ancient texts of the Jedi Order, and while Luke is technically dead, the undiscovered country has a pretty good day release program for Jedi. Supreme Leader Snoke, the only thing keeping the First Order together, is dead, and while Kylo Ren has succeeded him, his control over the First Order is predicated mostly on beating the tar out of General Hux. On top of that, Kylo is a Psychopathic Manchild whose Berserk Button regarding his past has a negative effect on his priorities, which leads to him being decidedly humiliated by Luke in their final confrontation, which rapidly becomes a legend across the galaxy, including among young slaves on Canto Bight — one of whom is shown calling a broom to his hand with the Force.

However, it's not all gloom, as Samuel Bei and half the battlegroup decide to fight for Earth instead, in the process giving Earth a fighting chance as opposed to the otherwise certain defeat. However, as War in Heaven is quick to underline, the UEF rarely scores any victories in their war with the GTVA whose forces both outgun and outnumber the UEF's, the second act in particular ending on a very cruel Hope Spot when the Wargods, who up until that point have been singlehandedly winning the war, are completely curb-stomped on the cusp of what could've been a war-ending victory. The third act itself ends with the GTVA forces about to invade the Earth itself, Noemi Laporte's revelation that the Vishnans have given up on preserving humanity because of the UEF-GTVA war and have ordered the Shivans to destroy humanity and Noemi being forced to fake her death to escape from the Elders' grasp. The ray of hope comes in the form of Ken bringing Noemi back from a survivor's guilt-induced Despair Event Horizon by telling her that Lorna is still alive and that the Shivans have a plan to prevent humanity's end, but the UEF needs to win the war in order for the plan to work. This leads to a pretty epic He's Back! moment as Noemi re-joins the UEF fleet under a fake identity and vows to end the war no matter what it takes.

Corruption and nepotism are often Inherent in the System in order to placate the key supporters to one's regime, who are more important to ruling than the masses, while rivals will be seeking to overthrow you, and being an "honest" leader will often mean they can exploit that. But at the same time, the viewer is encouraged not to turn away from politics, not just because you can't avoid them, but because you need power if you're ever going to bring about any of the changes that you dream about. It ends with the message that even if the viewer doesn't like the rules, better they be in power than someone else, and by knowing them, maybe they'll be different.

Everyone Lives — hell, no one's even in jail, except Zemo, who vindictively provoked much of this conflict in the first place. However, that's only because Cap led a mass jailbreak of the anti-Accords side. They're all now living as fugitives from international law in Wakanda. And while he's still a hero, he's decided to abandon the Captain America mantle by leaving the iconic shield with Tony and showing up to the jailbreak in civilian clothes. Meanwhile Bucky whose disputed right to be free set off most of the plot, is now willingly going back into cryostasis because no one can figure out how to remove what's left of the HYDRA brainwashing in his head, Rhodey was paralyzed by a stray shot from Vision and can only still walk with great difficulty and a Stark Tech exosuit, and Tony is alone except for Rhodey and Vision on the Avengers compound, dealing with the revelation that the Winter Soldier graphically murdered his parents. The ray of hope is Steve's letter to Tony apologizing for how he handled all this, and the fact that Tony puts Secretary Ross on hold (thus letting the jailbreak go ahead unhindered) to finish reading it, with Steve promising that the Avengers will come if the world needs them. Avengers: Infinity War ends with Thanos killing half of the entire universe including many heroes with only Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, Bruce Banner/The Hulk, Black Widow, Nebula, Rocket, War Machine, M'Baku and Okoye as the only known survivors.note Hawkeye and Ant-Man were not in the movie, while the likes of Wong and Shuri's fates remained ambiguous until supplementary material revealed the former survived and the latter was killed.

In spite of this development and the destruction of the Druids, Allanon remains as the last Druid, the Sword of Shannara is still capable of destroying the Warlock Lord, and Jerle Shannara continues his bloodline — leaving his descendants to eventually destroy the Warlock Lord.

However, Prince Zuko finally makes a Heelâ€“Face Turn and the episode ends with him following Team Avatar in an attempt to join them and help them overthrow his father.

In it, the 3rd Quarter Quell arena escape fails, with Katniss, Peeta, Finnick, Johanna, Enobaria, and Beetee all dying while Brutus wins the Games, the Rebellion never happens, every rebel who wasn't in the arena is exposed and either executed or sent to a Black Site, and the Games continue with more and more dead or mentally scarred children. However, District 12 isn't bombed, District 13 is still presumably out there, there is an Underground Railroad in the districts, and one final Cynicism Catalyst finally makes Brutus and Lyme decide to rebel and hope they can bring down the Capitol.

He fails and even makes things worse, but he does manage to find a way to immunize unborn children of anyone expecting. Bashir can't save many of the people he promised to save, but he does make things a lot better for the following generation. "Call to Arms" ends the fifth season with the Dominion invasion of the Alpha Quadrant, Deep Space 9 being quickly captured by the Dominion forces (although they pay dearly for it) and the heroes retreating. The ray of hope comes in the form of the massed Federation-Klingon fleet ready to fight back and Captain Sisko leaving behind his baseball on the station, a message that he will return, and shove it up the Dominion's ass when he does. "The Changing Face of Evil" has the Federation fleet at Chin'toka utterly destroyed, including the USS Defiant, making things pretty hopeless for the Federation and its allies — and then they learn of Damar's rebellion.

Despite a ferocious and desperate all-out assault by the remnants of the Allied Nations forces, bolstered by their Superweapon Surprise in the Paradox Engine, Libra's intervention and prior sabotage of the Paradox Engine's Prism Refractors before the final attack ensures the invasion force is all but destroyed and they're unable to destroy the Epsilon Army's Mental Omega Device before it's activated, leading to it mind controlling the entire planet. However, despite the seeming total victory for Epsilon, all is not yet lost. The Allied Commander's sacrificial ramming of the Mental Omega with the Paradox Engine delayed its activation long enough for Siegfried to Chronoshift the Allied remnants and the Paradox Engine wreckage to Point Hope, Alaska, where they form up with Scorpion Cell renegades, American resistance and Chinese defectors to form the Foehn Revolt. Partially repairing the Paradox Engine and using Siegfried's leftover notes, they use an altered Time Freeze to de-sync Point Hope from the world at large, allowing them to build up their forces and plan to strike back in peace. Meanwhile, the Soviet General resisted the Mental Omega's mind control wave long enough to warn the Soviet garrison on the moon to not return to Moscow, cluing them in that something's wrong and leaving them free to act against Epsilon in the future.

However, Luffy recovers from his Heroic BSoD thanks to Jimbei and sends a secret message to his crew to meet up in 2 years rather than the 3 days they agreed upon. Why? Because 1) Whitebeard's final words indicate that the One Piece is real and the age of piracy is going into a new era from said proclamation and 2) if the Straw Hats do intend to take on the 2nd half of the Grand Line, dubbed fittingly "The New World", they'll have to train to get stronger to be ready for the tougher challenges that await them. Thus the crew put their travels on hiatus to do just that.

But Kiritsugu manages to save the life of one boy, Shirou, who inherits Kiritsugu's ideals and will eventually fight in the Fifth and final War. The Animated Adaptation makes this more explicit, with a timer at the end of each episode counting down to the exact moment (the "zeroth second") Kiritsugu rescues Shirou, marking the the instant Fate/Zero ends and Fate/Stay Night begins. Saber herself more blatantly sees a ray of light pierce through the cloud choked battlefield of her past, symbolizing how she'll be redeemed in the next War.

"Ray of Hope" Ending / int_a47889a2	comment	Hadestown is based on the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, so it's no surprise that it ends on a downbeat note, with Eurydice being trapped in the Underworld forever and Orpheus being doomed to Walk the Earth. And, as Hermes sadly tells us, the story is told over and over again, with people always hoping for a happier ending that never comes. But... that kind of hope in the face of despair is exactly what Orpheus inspired in people, and continues to inspire if we keep telling his story. If we tell it again, maybe we can change the ending. If we tell it again, maybe, maybe this time, it'll come out right. The show ends with Persephone raising her glass to Orpheus, and the hope he brought to the world.

None of the three protagonists have an ending that could be considered good. Terra? Has lost his body to Master Xehanort's machinations, and has no attachment left to the world except through the Animated Armor known as the Lingering Will. Ventus? Has lost his heart thanks to Vanitas' failed attempt at a Fusion Dance, leaving him comatose. Aqua? Has utterly failed to save Terra from Xehanort, has unknowingly doomed the worlds to suffer at Xehanort's hands for 12 years, and is now trapped in the Realm of Darkness in his stead. But despite everything, when she's ready to give up, Aqua is saved by her friends' Keyblades flying in and destroying her aggressors, reminding her of everyone she's forged connections with. This renews her courage as she looks down at her Wayfinder and remarks "There's always a way".

"Ray of Hope" Ending / int_b0ff5776	comment	The second season finale of Young Sheldon focuses on Sheldon trying to have a party, inviting his classmates and friends over to listen to the Nobel Prize ceremony over the radio in the middle of the night. Predictably, no one shows up — even his teacher who promised to go ends up being unable to do so when he suffers a breakdown and has to be hospitalized. Sheldon's mom stays up with him, but he can tell she's only humoring him and tells her she can go back inside. The final scene has Sheldon sitting alone in a garage, all set up and decorated for guests he now knows aren't coming, listening to the winners being announced... and the project he was rooting for ends up losing. The poor boy is left desperately Trying Not to Cry, and his adult self, who narrates the series, admits that in that moment, he truly thought he'd always be alone. It's absolutely devastating, but it's not a complete Downer Ending, because we're then shown a montage of what six other kids are doing at the same time, accompanied by the song "Someday We'll Be Together" by The Supremes. Those kids are Sheldon's future friend group from the parent show, reminding us that, as alone as Sheldon was in that moment, it didn't last forever. The season ends with adult Sheldon admitting that he's very thankful to have been wrong.

However, against all odds and unknown to almost anyone, the rest of the Stark children are still out there, still fighting to get back to each other, getting increasingly badass and most of all freaking pissed at the Lannisters. Meanwhile, across the sea, Daenerys — one of the only other benevolent leaders — has gained power, liberated thousands of slaves and is on her way to Westeros. A miserable ending, but not the end of the game.

Jakob dies in a Heroic Sacrifice to save Dom, which proves fruitless as the film ends with Dom and his son completely at the mercy of Dante and Aimes as they prepare to blow up the dam that would flood the valley Dom and Brian are trapped in. The plane Tej, Roman, Han, and Ramsey are on was shot down with no indication if they make it out alive. Tess is heavily injured earlier in the film. Even if they all make it out alive somehow, they're still branded terrorists by the international community after Dante frames them for the devastating bomb explosion in Rome. The only silver lining is that Letty and Cipher managed to escape the Agency's base and rescued by a very much alive Gisele.

"Ray of Hope" Ending / int_ba9a9454	comment	The ending of Se7en. The villain has won, as Mills gives in to his anger at his wife's and child's death at the hands of John Doe, and Doe's agenda, a recreation of the Seven Deadly Sins in the form of murders, comes to fruition as Mills' execution of him makes him embody the seventh sin, wrath. Mills, clearly emotionally traumatised by the events, has been taken into custody. The hope comes in the form of Detective Somerset, who is a generally selfless and moral Knight in Sour Armor until a short time before the beginning of the film when he decides to actually retire and get on with his life. However, throughout the film, he just can't keep out that selfless part inside of him that wants to keep on fighting for the innocent, which is pushed on by Mills who is like a reminder of Somerset at a younger age. He does decide to stay on for a few days, but at the end of the film, it is implied that he has decided to stay on completely. The last words of the film are Somerset: "The world is a fine place, and worth fighting for. I agree with the second part" which shows that even in the worst of places and after seeing the worst in humanity, people will still fight for good. Also; Mills can still get a lesser sentence when circumstances for the execution are considered and there's always therapy. Sommerset could perhaps keep in touch with Mills and help him recover. Meanwhile, Doe's plan is a Pyrrhic Victory since Doe is... well... dead. While this was part of his plan to inspire a movement, there is no evidence presented in the film at all that John Doe is viewed as anything other than an Ax-Crazy maniac by the public, likely making it a Stupid Sacrifice.

The Riddler managed to kill a ton of people before being caught, he's met The Joker in Arkham, the Waynes' legacy is tarnished maybe forever, and the events of the movie have left a power vacuum in the criminal underworld that will lead to a lot of bloodshed and chaos. Batman even acknowledges in his closing monologue that things are going to get worse for awhile before they even have a chance at improving, and Selina doesn't think they'll ever improve. Batman himself doesn't know if they will... but he's still going to try. There's a new mayor who's honest and goodhearted working to rebuild trust in the city, Gordon is still around to be a voice of reason in the mostly-corrupt GCPD, and Batman's realized he can do far more good as a protector and symbol of hope than as a living nightmare. The mere promise that things can get better is all he needs to keep fighting his endless war against corruption and evil.

Come the ending, John's bounty is higher than ever, what few allies he still had after being excommunicated are either dead or no longer want anything to do with him, and he's hurt even worse than at the end of the previous film. However, the Bowery King is definitely agreed with him on fighting the High Table this time, and there is a subtle hint Winston may not actually have betrayed him for real.

"Ray of Hope" Ending / int_d532f73	comment	In Christian Nation, the entire United States is taken over by a Christian theocracy, thus putting an end to democracy, religious freedom, and even privacy as the government monitors everything its citizens do. Fortunately, the Free Minds Movement, which the protagonist is now a part of, is recording a part of that history with the help of an electric typewriter, one of the few pieces of technology that isn't being monitored, in the hope that future generations will learn to fight for their freedoms once again.

Hollyleaf snaps and kills Ashfur, before attempting to murder Leafpool, who is heavily implied to be suicidal. The only reason she relents is that she believes that it would be more of a punishment to let Leafpool live after she lost everything she loved. Brambleclaw is distraught and breaks up with Squirrelflight, who is shunned along with Leafpool by her fellow Clanmates. The Three face prejudice for their statuses as heroic bastards. Hollyleaf seemingly dies after running into a collapsing tunnel, apparently dooming the prophecy. The only good thing about this ending is that Jayfeather and Lionblaze realize that Hollyleaf was never part of the prophecy and that either Dovekit or Ivykit was the Third all along.

Echosong did eventually receive another prophecy to lead them toward the other Clans, but it's only a tiny spot of hope after the Clan has lost so much. A (downplayed) Foregone Conclusion makes the ending slightly happier, especially when connected to Shattered Sky.

A majority of the existing powers of FÃ³dlan except for the Leicester Alliance are gone and the church is potentially crippled with the loss of Rhea as an authority figure. However, with the truth of the history of FÃ³dlan revealed, those in the present can truly give FÃ³dlan a completely fresh start, free from the system that is born from many years of lies that created prejudices and various problems to the society of FÃ³dlan, and change the land for the better. The Silver Snow route also has this. Every single one of the existing powers of FÃ³dlan are decimated along with the church being potentially crippled with Rhea's death (unless you choose to S-Support her). FÃ³dlan as it was is gone by the end of the Silver Snow route, but those in the present can still create something new for the future of the land.

"Ray of Hope" Ending / int_e93b2f62	comment	The Fly (1986) was supposed to end with one of four scenes, all of which involved a Dream Sequence counterpart to Veronica's earlier Nightmare Sequence in which she sees a baby with butterfly wings emerge from a chrysalis, that answered the question of what would become of her and her unborn, possibly mutant child by the now-dead Seth. The options were 1) she gets back together with ex-lover Stathis and is carrying his child now, 2) same as 1 but she isn't pregnant at all, 3) she's single and not pregnant, 4) she's single and visibly pregnant with Seth's child. However, no one in the cast and crew wanted 1 or 2, and all four went over poorly with test audiences because, according to David Cronenberg, Seth's death was so upsetting they couldn't accept a hopeful epilogue so soon. Thus, the movie ends immediately after Veronica kills Seth. The dangling plot thread of the fate of the child became the jumping-off point of The Fly II.

Joined by several defectors from Britannia, and the Ashford Student Council, they plan to lay low for a while and rebuild their forces. They also manage to piggyback off Megatron's message to bring all remaining Decepticon forces to Earth, and send their own message to bring any scattered Autobots across the universe to Earth so they can join their fight against the Decepticons. Cera/C.C. also forms a contract with Optimus, giving him his own Geass so he can even the playing field against Megatron and his Dark Geass.

Wander's attempt to help Lord Hater impress Lord Dominator leads to Hater getting mercilessly shot down, and Peepers and Sylvia's attempt to defeat her once and for all is completely ineffective on top of accidentally giving Dominator ice powers on top of her magma powers. Fortunately, now that Hater knows he has no chance with Dominator he's given up on trying to woo her and can instead focus on helping Wander and Sylvia stop her evil plot to destroy every planet in the galaxy For the Evulz, if only so he can conquer the galaxy himself. In the penultimate episode of the series, "The Flower", Wander and Sylvia's morale takes a pounding as much of the galaxy lies dead in Dominator's wake. The only living thing they can find is a flower which they ultimately fail to protect. Yet in the end, they soldier on, still determined to thwart Dominator and somehow find a way to restore the galaxy. Meanwhile, the flower's spores spread to all the dead planets, start to grow, and life, however slowly, begins to return to those planets.

Of course, the T-850 knew it would happen all along. John finally accepts his destiny as leader of the resistance and begins his long journey to the eventual defeat of Skynet.

It still ends on a dark note as Donald realizes that he only exists inside the mind of a sleeping octopus and might one day vanish.

"Ray of Hope" Ending / int_f724b70d	comment	Every single season of Code Lyoko except the last one (which is a straightforward Earn Your Happy Ending) ends this way, with a victory for XANA but with the potential for the heroes to undo his victory. In order: Season 1: While Aelita is finally materialized, a virus planted inside her makes her freedom temporary, and the heroes still unable to shut down the computer without killing her. Still, Aelita is not a complete prisoner, and Jeremie promises to find the cure no matter what it takes. Season 2: Aelita has more freedom from Lyoko, but XANA now has a specific goal, to absorb her memories using the Scyphozoa. In the last episode of the season, he succeeds and manages to escape Lyoko, no longer relying on it and becoming far more powerful than before. However, when the heroes seem out of ideas, they get a message from the enigmatic Franz Hopper, pledging his help. Season 3: The end of this season marks XANA's biggest victory. His goal is to destroy Lyoko so that nothing can undo his attacks on humanity. At the end of the episode, he not only succeeds but makes William his slave. But, when all hope seems lost, the heroes get a message from Hopper again, hinting that he may have a solution. (In the next season, it is shown that Jeremie is able to use what Hopper sends him to rebuild Lyoko.)
