    Default Blitzball sign of victory

    You remember how the blitzball sign of victory is the same as the prayer of Yevon, right? Well when Wakka first shows it to Tidus and then asks him to do it, Tidus is smurfing useless at it. But then he says that any blitzballer would know it. So is there some bad translation going on here, or is Tidus really just whack?

    Wtf is wrong with Tidus' lips in this picture?

    I'd say Tidus is just a smurfing idiot. Remember, this is the man who MERE SECONDS before the scene you mention can't even repeat the smurfing word "crusaders."

    CREWS-OF-WHAT?

    His stupidity for these first sections of the game make me wonder if there really is truth to the "Sin's toxins" thing.

    What's his excuse midway through the game when he calls Macalania Temple the "Macarena Temple?"

    Tidus is such a tit.

    Sometimes people stumble with words that have foreign sounds but honestly I think he might've taken one too many hits to the head.

    Possible answers on the prayer thing:
    1: In Dream Zanarkand, maybe only the crowd does the prayer thing, not the players. Thus, Tidus might be clumsy.
    2: Tidus is slow at it on purpose to not show Wakka that his world has something in common. Unlikely, but fun to speculate.

    As for the crusaders thing:
    1: The Crusaders were founded after the war between Bevelle and Zanarkand. It is very much possible Tidus has never heard of the Crusaders, as the Fayth that dream Tidus would not know about it.
    2: (Maybe combined with #1) In a world where all is well and all you do is Blitzball, without getting taught history or whatever, it is possible you never heard of the term 'crusaders'. Especially if you're only 17 and your head does not develop beyond kick-ball-in-goal.

    The Macarena Temple thing is awesome nonetheless. Epic face palming by Lulu iirc.

    I'm saying that the word "crusaders" is not hard to repeat.

    For someone who has never heard that word before? Don't think we can judge. But hey, enough seriousness about derp-stuff.

    Except the part where you can, becase it's in the exact same language he already speaks.

    Tidus may know the sign of the Blitzball hand thingy, but that doesn't mean he is good at it. He was probably one of those arrogant athletes that got high off his own fame.

    "HA HA HA HA HA! I'M THE STAR OF THE ZANARKAND ABRAHAM LINCOLNS!! I DON'T NEED TO LEARN THE GANG SIGN!! HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!"

    Not a valid argument. Imagine yourself hearing the following word for the first time and repeat it correctly (after all, it's in the language we were speaking before): Antidisestablishmentarianism

    A 12-syllable-word over a 3-syllable-word?

    It's one thing to be like OH WAKKA WHAT IS A CRUSADER

    IT'S ANOTHER smurfING THING TO SAY CREWS OF WHAT?

    The more important question here is this: Why is Tidus a member of Jersey Shore in Jiro's original post?
