What Makes Him Pure Evil?[]
- In each episode, XANA devises a scheme that would either cause a lot of problems or mass causalities. For example in episode "Satellite", XANA takes control of a satellite to fire powerful laser beams at its targets. The laser blasts were massive and XANA intended to kill many people.
- It made multiple attempts on Franz Hopper's, Aelita's, and the Lyoko Warriors' lives throughout the series.
- In the episode "Marabounta", XANA sent its monsters to protect Aelita and her friends from Jeremy's creation, the Marabounta, as it was devouring its monsters, and targeted Aelita because she has XANA's virus implanted in her. However, its clearly out of pragmatic reasons because XANA needed Aelita to absorb her memories, otherwise Lyoko would've been completely wiped out by the Marabounta.
- Although it did once stop a meteor that was sent to the city, it was for pragmatic reasons because it needed Aelita alive, not because it cares for her.
- In the episode "XANA's Kiss", it sent a polymorphic spectre to assume the shapes of the Lyoko Warriors to kiss other people at the academy in a particularly cruel bid to divide and conquer them by taking advantage of the romantic feelings most of them had for each other (Jeremie and Aelita, Ulrich and Yumi). The spectre later proceeded to try to kill them when they caught on to the plot and made amends.
- While it shows honorable qualities in Season 2, it completely abandons them by Season 4.
- It captured and corrupted William Dunbar by turning him into his own slave.
- Murdered Franz Hopper in its last moments trying to stop him from powering the multi-agent program that ultimately destroyed it.
