I just wanted to get other people's opinion on this. Someone form another message board says he looks more SouthEast Asian (Thai, Malaysian, Indonesian, etc.) than Japanese, while I believe otherwise.

He's Zanarkandianeseish.
In FMV mode, he's asian. In gameplay mode, he's just a tanned white boy. Same with Yuna and Rikku.
Kinda like in FF7, where characters would look [img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img]ty in gameplay mode, and slightly less [img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img]ty in FMVs.
He does look a bit asian, but with the blond hair it kind of throws things off. But the more I think about what his face is like...yeah, he looks pretty asian. IF you're talking about FMV mode, like DocFrance already mentioned. I couldn't tell you where the hell he was from though. Cause I'm racist. :cool:
:D
a lot of FF characters look Asian-ish. Rinoa, Tidus, me (no duh), the old Rikku, Tifa AC, etc. well, at least in FMVs they do.
this question always arises when I play a new FF.....
I don't know..Sometimes he looks Japanese, sometimes no.
I thought he was black
All the Final Fantasies fmvs the characters look like Asians. Although his blond hair can bring some doubts about this matter. Not to mention the origins of his name: Tidus. It's a Greek name right? :shifty:
he got tanned skin and looks slightly japanese in the face but FF was made in japan so one or two characters will looks slightly japanese.
That and the fact that the game's setting was based on Okinawa.
Just in the video's yea but then Rikku and Yuna surely do to...
I thought he looked a little like Meg Ryan.....
he looks kinda asian but looks like a tanned white boy to me.
but what i've heard the japanese have a very big obbesion with white people so it wouldn't surprise me if any of there video game characters or anime looked like that.
yuna looks asian and white and rikku just looks like califrona white girl sooo where in the hell do you see asain n her
Please stop double posting, use the edit button instead. -kikimm
in the FMV's they all look more asian, except Kimahri hu isnt even human, in general, i didnt really think any of em looked excedingly asian.
i think all ffx characters (with exception to kimhari) looks japanese. rikku even reminds me of hikki (utada hikaru). it might me that tesuya nomura wanted to return to his roots.
btw other characters like ffvii and ffviii. most of them are caucasian (sp?)
If I recall correctly, Tidus is the word for "sun" in the Okinawan dialect of Japanese. This would better relate Tidus to the Sun Crest and Sigil, as well as tie in with the point concerning Okinawa that Kishi made.Quote:

I think alot of the Charcters look Asian Except a few
1.Auron-Just doesnt look asian to me
2.Wakka-He looks Hawiian and sounds it too
3.Lulu-She doesnt look that asian.....Maby its just because ive havent stared at her face in a LONG time.
No i didnt include Kimari....Why? Maby hes an Asain Ronso We dont know............
I never really thought they did in-game, but in the FMVs many of the characters have a decidedly asian look to them. It makes sense, really, since it's a Japanese game.
I feel left out...

I noticed that at a magazine rack before FFX came out .... I was looking screenshots during the pre-game hype and looked down and there was another 'zine w/ Meg Ryan on it....
And Blamo....
I releized that they were separated at birth....
i think they all look japanese. its not like tetsuya nomura when he intended the character design to look japanese. look at auron and lulu completely, i see some resemblance among the japanese.Quote:
