Men In Black
From Code Lyoko WIKI
The Men In Black in Code Lyoko are mysterious agents who work as repressive operators against traitors in the Project Carthage. They were sent after Franz Hopper, who escaped to Lyoko with his daughter Aelita. As Aelita fears them and associate them with her mother's disappearance, some fans suspect them to have kidnapped Franz's wife.
In Season 3, it is learned they are from "a very secret section of the secret services" (according to them): even the president doesn't know they exist, and they themselves don't really know who commands them (that could mean they believe to be a governmental service but in fact serve private leaders). They obviously appear as a parody of conspiracy theories. To fit with all stereotypes, they always wear sunglasses, and are virtually beyond Jim's intelligence level.
They made appearances in all seasons but Season 1, the appeared in Aelita's visions in season 2 (production wise), but Aelita's vision was chronologically before season 1, they also made an appearance in season 3 when they came after Jeremie because XANA framed him for hacking in to the men in black systems, and finally they made their last appearance in season 4 when XANA created one from a polymorphic spectre to capture Aelita in town.
They may be inspired from the agents in Men in Black, in the Matrix trilogy or in the real world, from the United States Secret Service.
