Nope. I liked him quite a bit and didnt find him annoying at all.

Hmm... no one was really annoying.

I thought Wakka was hilarious at times! Like when he tried to cheer Rikku up after her home exploded, he said "it's like happy fireworks, ya!?" What an idiot!

But the funniest scenes with Wakka are when he gets pissed off. When Luzzu breaks the news about his brother and it zooms up on Wakka's face, and he punches him in the face. Hilarious. Also, later on Bikanel Island the same thing happens when Rikku is trying to say something, I forget. It zooms up on his face and he makes a "HNNG!??" grunting noise. Hilarious.

I don't know why you'd think he was annoying, really. The only person remotely annoying on the team was Tidus in my opinion.

My name is...something..?

Wakka is in no way annoying!!!!
Wakka is actually one of my favorite FF characters. I mean, he's an islander and you don't get too many islander characters in FF games.

Not at all. I think he's one of the best characters in the game. His story is really well fleshed out - retiring blitzball player, devout follower of Yevon, etc, which really humanizes him. He's consistant, and his island accent is pretty realistic. He doesn't talk for the sake of hearing himself speak - he really has opinions and thinks quite a bit about things. Also, he's the best looking guy in the game, IMHO. :p

I really enjoyed watching him deal with his prejudices when he finds out Rikku is an Al Bhed. I thought X really excelled in having very human reactions, Wakka especially. He doesnt just stop disliking the Al Bhed, it takes him a long time and a lot of thought.

He could be funny at times, I'll admit, but I have to say he is probably my least favorite playable character. Just to annoying for me to handle. That, and he DEFINATELY didn't deserve Lulu! (She's MINE, you island freak!!!)

I liked him. He was funny, like Gwelenguchenkus said, when it zooms on his face it hilarous! The first one was in the Kilika forest when Yuna said she wanted Tidus around. HAHAHAHA!!! I always look forward to that part. His prejuicism wasn't good, but he eventually got out of it, which made me like him more. I though he was funny... *shrug* I was surpised when I saw there were alot of people that didn't like him. I mean, I know every character has their haters, but Wakka had A LOT, and I don't think he should. He wasn't the best character ever, but he was still frickin' awesome!

I thought it was funny that he accused Auron of being an Al Bhed at some point after getting worked up over the revealing.

He's voiced by Bender the Robot. How could he possibly be annoying?

Is he really? That's cool, didn't know that.

I hate his voice. I live in Wisconsin, where people really do talk similar to that. "Oh ya, yoo betcha, eh?"

Other than that, I like him. He's a good character, with good development and such.

Isn't Tidus's voice actor someone in futurama too?

According to IMDB Tidus's guy did background voices.

Wakka's great.

Wakka was my favorite character, he was the fresh air the game needed.

Wakka is awsome. My second favorite character....next to Auron. Hes as funny as hell :D

Wakka was a good character, but I gotta admit, I did find him somewhat annoying, but not to the point of disliking him.

He was pretty stubborn, and a really brainwashed religious fanatic. He was really stupid and naive, and his prejudices annoyed me, but he's a great, energetic fighter, he's comical, and he's a great blitzer. He's da Captain, Ya?!?! He's like that stupid friend you have who makes an a$$ of himself when he opens his mouth, making you laugh at him, but is still a good guy.

i find him about as annoying as a bottle of cold water in a hot desert. i don't find him annoying at all to tell the truth, he's easily misunderstood.

to me he was all right somtimes he tries alittle too hard, but his funny hair style makes up for it i wonder how he gets it to stay like that???

yeah hes annoying but in a good way but hes now where as bad as Tidus and Yuna man chatty little kiddies

...but his funny hair style makes up for it i wonder how he gets it to stay like that???

Ever seen There's Something About Mary?

I'd have to say that Rikku is much more annoying, as is Tidus. He may be my best character, but inside, he's still a wuss.

TurkSlayer
05-14-2005, 03:28 AM
Actually I liked Rikku a lot more. And the guy who plays Bender does Wakka's voice??? I would have never guessed. They're voices aren't anywhere near similar. Wow... I guess just because of that I'll like him a little more.

I didn't really care about them the first two playthroughs, but in the third he was rather annoying, yeah.

I thought he was interesting. Not as interesting as Auron, but he had a lot more in his head than some characters *cough Lulu cough*

*waits for her head to be cut off*

Wakka's not annoying, but his hatred for the Al Bhed certainly was. I can understand where he was coming from, but yeesh. I'm glad he reconciled with them though.

The only line you need to define Wakka:
"What team you play for again?"
A whole 2 seconds after Tidus explains it.

Wakka was annoying at times, but man, he sure can throw a blitzball.

sometimes he's annoying, but most of the time he's the funniest character (alongside with Rikku)

Slade

Just for the record, Wakka is no where near as annoying as Tidus........... :mad:

I hated how he spent 4/5 of the game mindlessly following orders even after Bevelle itself had abandoned him. His unjustified prejudice against the Al Bhed is pretty ridiculous and makes me want to punch him in the face.

He's voiced by John DiMaggio for crying out loud. You can very easily imagine him saying "Bite my shiny metal ass".

I liked him. He had a little thing I like to call "personality". And it's fun to throw beach balls at birds. :tongue:

I loved his insults, they were so funny. :)

!!!

Wakka and Kimahri were voiced by the same person (John DiMaggio).

Whos John DiMaggio anywho? Famous for what?

Yes, but its his "personality" that I dislike. As for who John DiMaggio is, all I know him from is Futurama, as the voice of Bender.

I like Wakka because he's Bender. And Bender is great.

When I first played the game his "ya's" got very annoying. But after playing it again a few times I don't mind him at all, I like him as a character

i think wakka is annoying cuse hes always saying " ya "

Del Murder

'Ya' was bad, but 'you know' was the most overused phrase I've ever seen in a game.

Wakka was cool! The only personi found really annoying was Tidus, god he was annoying!

I thought Wakka, Tidus, Rikku, and Yuna were annoying.

I never really formed an opinion about Wakka for some reason. I spent most of my time hating Tidus and Yuna and being thankful the rest of the cast were at least tolerable. But after reading this thread I've decided that I like Wakka. Him and Rikku did seem to have personalities I liked. He was just a lovable guy. And Rikku was adorably cute to me.

Time for a celebration!! Drinks on me!

Seriously though, he's not so bad that I wish him dead, I just really don't like him and the fact that didn't deserve Lulu at all.

'Ya' was bad, but 'you know' was the most overused phrase I've ever seen in a game.
Exactly.

At least "Ya" sounds like some kind of Islander lingo, with a distinct accent. (I know, because I come from an island, and we have our own lingo, and a distinct accent!)

"You know", however, sounded stupid, and was completely overused.

However, it doesn't spoil the game or anything. And neither does Wakka, or even Maester Seymour for that matter!! I just completed both FFVII and FFVIII, and I'm now playing FFX for the 3rd time, and its my favorite. By far.
