    I'm gonna go with the tanned Asian theory.

    I think he's from Spira. His skin color does appear to be white though.

    I've got the self restraint not to Google foreign terms, but when it's brought here...!

    Is Tidus white?
    The first thing that comes to mind is Zanarkandian.

    I believe the characters of Final Fantasy X were intentionally given Asian and Polynesian influences to reflect the climate of the world of Spira.
    I believe in the power of humanity.

    He always looked like a pacific islander to me. Considering the settings the majority of the game takes place in, I figured that was the intent.

    Also, for those of you wondering why he has blonde hair; it's bleached. In many of the FMVs you can see that he needs to do his roots.



    Also, in the flashback scenes where he's a kid, his hair is not blonde.



    And lets not forget, he was originally supposed to have jet black hair anyway.

    His dad was a freaking whale, so I don't think he's ever gonna fit into traditional ethnic categories.

    Um, spoilers?

    Lulu is a goth, clearly she's a bad example as she's so white she's practically translucent!

    I can't be the only person who ever thought of Wakka as Jamaican. He's got the accent going on.

    It's important to know this because Stormfront can't enjoy a game with a non-white protagonist.

    As gamers, we can't relate to people who aren't pasty neckbeards pretending to be the hero of a video game.
