* ** Spend five minutes on a ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'' forum and you will quickly discover that Tidus is one of the most polarizing main protagonists in the franchise's history. The commonly cited reasons include: His whiny voice, his daddy issues, his IdiotHero characterization that comes across as rather self-centered, and the ridiculousness of his design in general. However, fans of the character either don't mind the voice or like the contrast between early and late Tidus, find his anger at Jecht both understandable and relatable, and feel that he grows and matures as the story goes on. His romance with Yuna is often considered either one of the best in the series or one of the worst; Yuna is far more universally beloved[[note]]With even her voice actress acknowledging the positive impact the romance subplot had.[[/note]], so detractors usually put the blame squarely on Tidus. Finally, Tidus's HeroicSacrifice and (possible) resurrection is either the final nail in the coffin or a [[EarnYourHappyEnding well-deserved ending for players who like the character]]. There is also the fact Tidus has been noted to have surprising CharacterDevelopment, getting over his hatred over his father in the game, and honoring him in the cdrama by wearing his bandana. Despite some questionable actions Yuna makes in said CD drama, Tidus decides to keep his promise when rather than becoming angered or annoyed by her.

** Tidus is generally well liked for his friendly personality (contrasting previous angsty characters), his relationships with his friends and most notably Yuna who are noted to be one of the best couples in gaming in general. On the other hand, some hate Taylor's voice acting as him, his DaddyIssues and his ridiculous design by Nomura.

This is a pretty unbalanced oversimplification of the actual debate over Tidus's character. The first part is basically just gushing and trying to pass off an opinion as fact. The second part almost begrudgingly glosses over a few reasons he's disliked.
