Wow this topic is still alive? You're kidding right? It's been nearly a month. People hate Tidus because he's whiney and bratty, etc...??? Okay stop for just a minute and think about this. If you were thrown into some unknown world, being chased by fiends and nearly killed and all alone and then you wind up with people you don't even know, wouldn't you just want to go home? Wouldn't you be upset at first? I mean what if you found out your father was the cause of all the destruction and pain in Spira and the only way to get rid of him was to kill him? How would you feel if you fell in love with somebody (summoner Yuna) only to find out later on that her defeat of Sin will take her life and you'll lose that too??? I mean put yourself in Tidus's shoes and think about that. You don't know where you are, you don't know anybody and have no choice but to go with them so you won't be alone and so hopefully you can find a way home, you fall in love only you may end up losing that love because of your father and so your mission is to kill him without her dying but yet you're still losing one you care about. I mean wouldn't you be scared, wouldn't you be complaining and wouldn't you cry if you went through all of that?? Think about it...
