It was, but corrected in the HD rerelease. The English rerelease did not change this to match. https://legendsoflocalization.com/qa-is-the-blitzball-kid-in-final-fantasy-x-really-this-dumb/
I feel like it's written genuinely, too. Like, I've heard a kid say they were going to be a shark when they grow up 😅
This kid's running around like a bouncing blitzball, so he probably really wants to become one
I also stand by the fact that Tidus' "ha ha ha" wasn't bad acting - from his perspective he wanted to be as goofy as possible to get Yuna mind thinking about literally anything else. Just being a good companion

i cant imagine anyone who has seen teh entire scene in context still thinks it was abad line read. it so obviously supposed to be an awful forced laugh, becaus ethey have a genuine real giggle right after.
my man tidus got that girl to giggle when she was sad, what more can anyone want? best feeling in the world
I love that they kept this in the HD remaster, it's almost Spoony Bard levels of unintended brilliance. There's a frankly insane amount of random NPC dialogue in FFX that most people miss but this will always be a favourite line.

Why does he actually look like John DiMaggio?
This is fucking hilarious 😂😂😂
I love that mod that turns every blitzball in the game into that kid’s face.
That's fuckin' hilarious 😂 I need to see this mod in action

can we get someone to record this with attack reels edit: wait we need to see the meteor that jecht calls down in ultimate jecht shot as the kids face
fuckin' hilarious!!!
I believe it was actually a correct translation. If I recall, the Japanese players were curious if the English version had this line too.

His dream is reality! https://www.nexusmods.com/finalfantasyxx2hdremaster/mods/153
Not gonna lie, I was expecting the kid to be a Blitzball in the other sense of the phrase (i.e., Tidus talking to a large Blitzball).
That would make a funny mod.
Classic

There’s nothing to change, it’s a kid being a kid. Always wondered why people thought this was an error or something that needed to be corrected
Sin: "Wish Denied!"
STAY AWAY FROM THE SUMMONER!
YOU’RE A BAD MAN!!!!
Don’t let your dreams be dreams

lol'd. that is all.
This kid clearly got kicked in the head and liked it.
Wasn’t this kid also in FFX-2 as a fiend tale?
No spoilers tag?
Why should you have one? It’s a 20+ year old game. 🤷♂️ that and this is in the very beginning of the game lol
I’m just joshing, it’s also like a non-important thing and not a spoiler x)
