Do me a favor, will you. Say this word out loud or at least sound it out in your head..

"Tidus"


Now, you are either in one of two distinct groups

1. Normal English Speaking Mildly-Intelligent person who pronounces this word
"Tye-Dus"

or

2. Never-played-a-rpg-in-my-life-cannot-annunciate-basic-words-
and-pronounces-this-word
"Tee-Dus"

The voice actor for Tidus in Final FantasyX was interviewed and I happened to get a glimpse of it on Youtube the other day. He, and several others were heard saying "Tee-Dus". WTF
Its kind-of like the people I knew who called
"Super Mario Brothers"
the
"Super Merry-oh Brothers"
Face-Kick.
