[HD] Dissidia: Final Fantasy Zidane Story Mode - Part 1

[GiecoGeck0]

love that theme at 1:54

[KirbyChan]

It's weird to see Zidane this tall xD I'm used to seeing him all short and stuff. That's just how the artwork was in FF9 and I kinda miss it.

[Ghostgirl777]

Cloud - wolf

Squall - lion

Zidane - monkey

Tidus - ........ a chipmunk?

[teenaho]

Now that I think about it, Zi-dawn makes sense because in Japan, they would pronounce his name Ji-da-n. But I like saying Z-eye-den better >:p

[DAYD111]

Zidane looks way cooler in this version.

[BlueKiss131]

Wow, the voice and stuff have improved a whole bunch in Dissidia 012 Duodecim. :P

[Rockerbro3371]

I'm afraid the mouse is SMACK dab in the middle of enemy territory

Oh Kefka you maniac

[MysticShadowdude]

SMACK.

[awsomeyoshi2]

"One of us is not serious enough"

Oh Kefka you

[cholexion]

Kefka has Kakashi's voice XD

[cholexion]

Zidane has masaomi kida's voice XD

[MackenzieMcKenzie]

Zidane's voice would have been perfect for Zell if FFVIII had had voices...

[isaac4533]

One of us is not serious enough? Zidane is serious if he is looking for his pal bartz!

[4k1m1]

I think Zidane's voices suits him. I used to always pronounce his name Zih-dayne, but now I pronounce it as it is in this game. Idk, I guess that I'd rather pronounce it correctly rather than be like, "No, this sounds better." Cuz even if it sounds better, it's still not his name. p:

[Blunderbuss09]

Yeah, I ain't digging Zidane's voice here. He's supposed to be a charming ladies man; he needs a nicer voice!

[Thebassjunk]

Always pronounced it as Zi-dayne as well. Hearing it like this sounds... weird.

[MsBigB777]

My MOST FAVORITE character of all Final Fantasy Series! He will always bring me a smile on my face! He is so cool, witty, clever, and CUTE!XD

[pyrowayvern]

What is the little chocobo doing there?

[AAvdH]

... I wish he had a deeper voice >.> The way I remeber him he was MANLY! And with manly a deep voice has to go with >:/

[MrFreshLuffy]

Zidane looks kinda gay on this he dosent look that way on FF9 XD

[creamashes]

SMACK

[iluvd4432382]

Kefka: Inconceivable!

Me: You keep using that word. I do not thhink it means what you think it means.

^_^

[missystar013]

@iluvd4432382 ROFL. Inigo Montoya quotes ftw!! :D

[iluvd4432382]

@missystar013 Yeah, I couldn't resist. ^^

[missystar013]

@iluvd4432382 Hahaha that's cool. I have made a few Inigo Montoya quotes out of Final Fantasy moments, too. It's too fun to pass up.

[iluvd4432382]

I always liked Zidane's victory pose.  It fits him so well! And that wink at the end is kinda cute... ^_^

[BlueKiss131]

wow, "pronoucing zidane the right way" is famous. lol

[Clouderous]

I've been saying it Zih-dain when i started playing it. found out how to pronounce it from the soccer player. So now i try to pronounce it zee-dahn. but not zee-dawn

[xXArabianNinjaXx]

At 1:20 - OMG they're sparkling! *shoots Stefanie Meyer*

[silverdragonknight19]

i prounced zidane zi ( rhymes with sigh ) dane

[xXSpiritDreamerXx]

"He continues on his exciting adventure with his partner, Bartz" Partner, huh? Since when? XD (sorry, my inner yaoi fangirl just had to)

[Ventusvsterra]

lol goku the monkey tailed boy

[Ventusvsterra]

lol goku

[ph34rbucket]

I say Zid-ain sounds way better.

[AnvilRTX]

i've been saying Zidawn and Teedus since i've started playing... --" no other way makes sense for me

[awkwardlygirly]

haha.. it still blows my mind that Zidane is only 16 years old 0.o (But he is one of my fav charaters in the whole final fantasy series... even though not alot of people like him because hes a 'monkey boy') And i noticed that all the Final Fantasy games are slowly turning into Kingdom Hearts: the fights, the art works, the graphics... sigh. I miss the old final fantasys.. (Although im NOT complianing about the grafics, because i really do like them.)

[LokizarroX]

Am I the only one who actually pronounced it "Zidawn" before I heard this? lol it makes sense for it to be "Zi-dain" as well though.

[PokemonaMoni]

@LokizarroX Well, I'm spanish so from the begining I pronounce "Zidawn".

[PrincessNikikeya]

@TurboSalad Actually on FFIX, Garland says Zidane was created 12 years before the game. Thats a loong ways from 18 xDD

[PrincessNikikeya]

his Japanese name is Jitan pronounced GEE Tawn (A is pronounced like in fAther) So yes Zee DAWN is correct.

[scorptatious]

I always kind of imagined Zidane's voice to sound a little like Edward Elric from Fullmetal Alchemist. Albeit, a little more upbeat.

[PrincessNikikeya]

@scorptatious agreed, speacially since Romi Paku (Ed's Japanese VA) Does Zidane's voice in the Jap version.

[Cordelordo]

The word smack is SMACK dab in the middle of this sentence.

[iamkairiheart]

Oh man. Zidane sounds like a 14 year old from Kingdom Hearts. I had always imagined his voice somewhat less...childish.

[LokizarroX]

Zidane is awesome.

[thadex454]

how did you recprd this?

[Dataro2]

oh kefka :3



[Lateral0Thinking]

Ugh.... Zidane's voice is so bad.

[TheKindplayer]

@Lateral0Thinking true!

[MajinCCBThePrince]

@369destroyer Hahahaha!!!! xD Mk vs. DC-U vs. D:FF well quoted xD made my day XD

[MajinCCBThePrince]

its always been pronounced Tee-dus, English Kairi & Selphie were only morons... as for Zidane it's obvious as hell, you have remember these were NOT made for englih but japenese... pronouncing a NON-english name in english is just retarded and practically has you begging make ass of yourself by mispronouncing everythin you come across...

[MajinCCBThePrince]

correction, Mispronounced xD

[MajinCCBThePrince]

Only ff char I ever misprounced was Sephiroth by sayining Sep-h-eerot-h my country doesn't hav the ph and th grammar rule... and I was 7 xD

[GalacticConflict]

What in all hell IS that chocobo thing after every battle?

... You can tell I've not played Dissidia, can't you?

[favreg17]

thease intros are so dramtic

[xIegionx]

ZiDAWN

I thought it was ZiDANE

[finalfantasy8911]

@xIegionx

That always happens with these final fantasy characters.

CLAWD with CLOUD

TIDUS with TEDUS

KEEFKA with KEHFKA

FIRERON with FEARION

CEECIL with CEHCIL

Some of the pronounced names I had originally thought sound better too.

[finalfantasy8911]

@xIegionx

Oh I forgot...

ULTIMECEA with UlTIMESHA.

[shathedeath]

Hey, Zidane's voice is exactly like Demyx's in Kingdom Hearts 2

[iamthepkmmaster]

SMACK!

[AzaleaFlowerGirl]

I Love Zidane for life!!! He is so sexy with his cute little tail

[durkadurka91]

man, i just beat FFIX last night for the first time..and this is certainly not how i imagined zidane talking. glad they did well on squall's though.

[SwizztheWolf5]

TSEpictures...you know he shares voice actors with Ed in Japanese?

[jepoy741]

is zidane a girl??

[iamthepkmmaster]

@jepoy741 no zidane is male

[TSEpictures]

Zidanes voice reminds me of Ed's... Lets call him short and see what happens!

[DAYD111]

@TSEpictures

Funny, because Zidane's japanese voice actor actually does provide the voice for Edward.

[TSEpictures]

@DAYD111 That is interesting. I still wanna call him short though.

[Dsurvivor21stCentury]

@CrazyWebGuy Longspoken? Oh I thought you were referring to his constant theatre related vocabulary.

[Dsurvivor21stCentury]

@CrazyWebGuy What do you mean by "the game"? Do you mean Dissidia or FFIX, cause to me I was playing Dissidia, and I was thinking "KUJA DOES NOT TALK LIKE THIS!" (I mean, he does in FFIX but not as religiously as they made him do here)

[Dsurvivor21stCentury]

I don't care what this game says I refuse to say Zi-dahn, he'll always be Zid-ayne to me.

[AzaleaFlowerGirl]

@Dsurvivor21stCentury I know, right?

They made you guess for over a decade and then they decide they want to put voices in for the real pronounciations? WTF is that?

[Dsurvivor21stCentury]

@AzaleaFlowerGirl I believe its Fan Disservice

[Kasidy92]

Aww the Melodies of Life sounds nice.

[rashyboy]

I still don't understand the Tidus thing what I know is that in KH1 Selphie says it liks TIE DUS, but Wakka says it like TEE DUS in KH2 briefly whee Selphie is with Kairi she says it like TIE DUS again, but here they say TEE DUS, his name pronounciation is inconsistent, but hw they butcher Zidane's name, now that's just wrong.

[Kupo923]

@rashyboy Technically, you can't objectively say that Zidane's name was butchered. His name in Japanese is Jitan, which obviously sounds more like "Zih-dahn" (as they pronounce it in Dissidia).

Thus, I'd say that Dissidia's way of saying it is the CORRECT way, because it's honest to the original way of pronouncing his name.

[rashyboy]

@Kupo923 Back then couldn't they at the very least not spell his name like that in the english version of FFIX and instead made it Zidawn or something, because when it's for japanese speaking audiences, it's understandable because of the original name, but why did they put an e at the end? That is very misleading for english speaking, especially on the game he was in had no voice acting.

[s0ph14luvUKn0w]

can anyone tell me that Zidane is actually a Mithra?

[DropletOfSour]

@s0ph14luvUKn0w Zidane's a Genome.

[369destroyer]

Joker say: Why so serious

Kefka says: One of us is not serious enough

[Riku7538]

Bartz resembles the Freelancer Job in V... Any weapon, 2 abilities at once, just like the weapons he holds...

If you know the Job System, you'll understand what I mean...

[soraenja952]

zidane's voice is pretty bad here. =/ then again, so is bartz's :( but zidane's my favourite ff hero though :(

[blobman000]

I don't like the voice they chose for Zidane. Our the pronunciation they chose for his name.

A think a good rule is to not give voices to characters whose original games didn't have voice acting.

[TPoynt100]

@blobman000 For this game, that would mean that only Tidus and Jecht have voices.

[Dsurvivor21stCentury]

@TPoynt100 LOL +1 +1 +1 Well played, so true!

[VampiricamvMaker]

if i play free mode or something then i lvl up and have Zidane or other guys in the lvl

i don't have it but i am going to buy it

[ilovehiei]

THAT'S HOW YOU PRONOUNCE HIS NAME!!

*headdesk*

I had two different ways I thought it could be, and neither were right!

D:

[soracal]

kefka is funny

[ImATumor5]

kefka: "one of us is not serious enough"

...must resist joker jokes...

[extremeanigma1]

dang what lvl did u have him at?

[TurboSalad]

actually in FF9 Zidane is 18 not 16

[asfjant400]

@TurboSalad actually he is 16

[Lindaru]

@TurboSalad

In FF9 Zidane is 16

so in dissidia he is 16 as well

[Chaosical2]

@Lindaru im pretty sure he was 18 in ff9

[Peridapheniliac]

@Chaosical2 Zidane was 19, but yeah, not 16, that was Dagger

[Badfish93]

@Peridapheniliac Zidane was 16 in FFIX it states that in the manual.

[Peridapheniliac]

@Badfish93 Are you talking about the strategy guide? 'Cuz the game manual doesn't give ages that I see. Regardless FFWiki seems to agree with you so I concede ^^; ...not that i find wikapedia a reliable source for debate... mebbe OF debate... but I'm convinced for as much as I CARE what age he is. X3

[Badfish93]

@Peridapheniliac Oh I haven't checked the manul in almost six years (lost the actual game ages ago :( ) But yeah wiki isn't the most realiable source.

[Peridapheniliac]

@Badfish93 Sad!!! T~T

[Badfish93]

@Peridapheniliac I miss the the original game :(

[DAYD111]

@Peridapheniliac

He was 16. It even said it in the manual for FF9.

[Peridapheniliac]

@DAYD111 I'm sorry... are you referring to the comment I made nearly a YEAR ago? And without even reading the resulting convo w/Badfish93?

Dude... you have too much time on your hands. Take up crocheting or something. Or better yet, watch the next video.

[DAYD111]

@Chaosical2

He was 16, dude. He and Garnet were the same age.

[Olecranon89]

Wow, that guys actually nailed Kefka's laugh, this is awesome!

[wikidclown4lif]

Kefka reminds me of the Joker from Batman

[SkittlesWithMuffins]

SMACK!

[Aleks182]

I've pronounced it Zih-dane for 7 years now, I don't intend to stop now, lol.

[Arisa951]

@Aleks182 Lol same here i cant call him Zi-dan now i cant i like my way better

[Aleks182]

I bet they did it just to piss us off =P

[wikidclown4lif]

@Aleks182 Me neither. It's Zih-dane. Thats my way, and i'm stickin to it

[yoznfroogurt]

@Aleks182 I actually find myself calling him Zi-dawn sometimes lol. Even though i think it's like Zi-dayne.

[TheProphacy1]

too many fangirls/fanboys here...seriously its just a damn game o.O

[analukatmj]

Zi-dawn?

I love Zi-dane and FFIX!!! s2 <3

[Lithiel]

Zidane..*sigh*.<3

[TCUSolidWolf]

Kefka: One of us is not serious enough...

The Joker: Why so serious?

Yeah, I saw that joke coming, too.

[xXxbeisel76xXx]

Freaky ass clown...

[KingdomEllipsis]

What's with the little... I think it's a chocobo? that's at the end of every battle?

[kaihedgie]

@KingdomEllipsis Play Plan

[FF3710Freak]

It's cool how all the stories weave through each other, the stories all connect, and that is SO cool.

[rinraiden]

Hey, isn't Ultimecia suppose to have some kind of speech thing where she puts a K in replace of a C to show shes saying it stronger than she should be?

"Kurse all SeeDs. Swarming like lokusts akross generations."

~ Ultimecia, FFVIII

Although she does lose it in her final form. But she ain't in her final form in Dissidia...

[pikagirl123]

i love Kefka ... "I'm afraid the mouse is... SMACK...dab in the middle of enemy territory" HAHAHA i love how he changes his voice so quickly!

[kaihedgie]

@KittyloverAmethyst The other villains call 'em a monkey. He certainly moves like a monkey and behaves like a monkey and his Trance gives him more monkey-like attributes. If he were half-lion, he'd also have that bushy tuft at the tip of his tail and more feline features.

[DarkFrozenDepths]

uh...what?!

[Renkel76]

Zi-dawn???? I have always prounounced it zi-dane....Am i Wrong again??? Anyway I love how Tetsuya redid him! He looks so freakin awesome! I wish they redid ff9 in that art! :)

[Zidane756]

i think its sopossed to be zi-dane now zi-dawn thats how i pronounce is zi-dane and will stay like that but they got tee-des stuck in my head insted of ti-dis

[AnimeAngel88]

@Zidane756 Zi-dawn and Tee-des is how they're pronounced in the Japanese versions. That's how they were carried over in the English version.

[legion9060]

As my own opinion, Zidane should've a better model. He was so cool back in FF9 that in Dissidia it's pretty spoiled. And the voice, it should've got a better one too...

[joshua4784]

Zid-AWN? HERE we go again like TEE-DUS(tidus)

[AntarieI]

It really is "Tee-dus," though. How they managed to butcher Zidane's name, however, I refuse to try to find out anymore.

[makitan12]

i thouth zidane was a girl

[Ghostgirl777]

o_o

Zid-awn?

I THOUGHT IT WAS Zid-ain o_o

...well...IT STILL IS TO ME!!!

[belovedchaos1]

@Ghostgirl777 Me too!!! I say it that way too.. sounds better... XP

[DoubleUPHarmony]

@belovedchaos1  i agree, its retarded! Americans ruin all good names, like (just for excample) sailor moon, USAGI-san, tunred into Serena... WTHECK!! Oy

[belovedchaos1]

@DoubleUPHarmony Glad I'm not the only one who thinks so... I really think they should get fans to help with voice casting, and name pronounciations... it's just embarassing...really... *shakes head* But I guess it's better than not having it at all....still!

[kaihedgie]

@DoubleUPHarmony Must you think think that every single solitary American is responsible for every thing that is wrong in the world?

Zidane isn't even an English name for Pete's sake

[Gemjades]

4:41 O.o a chocobo?

[logansew]

Zi-don HMMMMM odd i thought it was pronounced Zid'ayn

[nickninja27]

zidane's voice in english just doesnt match his size. He should have a little person's voice.

[WoolyWoolwine83]

It may not match his size, but it matches his age. He's 16, not 6.

[nickninja27]

nope, i think the kind of voice that he had in the japanese version fits better.

[WoolyWoolwine83]

Personally, while I think the Japanese voice did a better job, I think the English voice fit better. Short does not necessarily mean you have to sound like a little kid. Like I said, he's 16 years old, he should sound like it. But that's just my opinion. If you think the Japanese version fits better, that's fine.

[nickninja27]

yeah its all a matter of opinion

[thatfallout3guy]

@WoolyWoolwine83 I thought he was 17?

[logansew]

it suits his apearance he looks like a gril in this

[ImpmonRULEZ]

lol, i bet alot of ppl thought it was funney when kefka said "that little mouse is SMACK!...dab in the middle of enemy territory." XDDD

[thekingofreyes3]

i dunno bout you guess but i absolutely love the japanese VO for zidane this one is not terrible but alright

[waytothudawn]

i'm afraid the mouse is SMACK.... dab in the middle of enemy territory.

[iceandflame]

2:24

Bartz: More like I'll show YOU!

Zidane: (What...what is this feeling?)

Bartz: FEELING OF ME SERVING YOUR FACE!!!!!

[Aggibale]

did anyone else think that intro narration was kind of... gay?

[SakayaNari]

Yes, Yes it was.

[LuCaRiO424]

SMACK...dab in the middle of enemy territory.

XD

[Rikugirl1996]

@rasheobob:

Shut up!!! Bartz isn't Emo!! He is funny and laughs much!!! And he just looks cute!

[rasheobob]

bartz looks emo...i just dont know why..

[strickenimp]

slomo back flip nice

[Bloo2u]

u obviously havnt played ff9 lol

[jadedmisanthropy]

Kefka's like "Why so serious?"

[Bloo2u]

i always thought it was Zie dane o.o

[luveprincesora]

You're not alone on that one.

[Peridapheniliac]

sigh... so manly in his game... so girly in this one

[waytothudawn]

is bartz played by the guy that voices goku? he sounds almost just like him!

[Makilore]

Ever heard of Zidane the soccer player? It's the way they pronounce it in English the makes the name kinda funny. They say Zi-dawn, when why should be saying Zi-don. The "O" is too stretched.

[Sehanort]

SMACK!!

[sp0909]

lol Zi-Don? i thoguht it was pronounced Zi-d(long a)ne

lol anyone else agree?

[sp0909]

what i meant was i though it was pronounced that,guess im wrong

[robimltube]

Hear, hear!

[KeikaStrife]

I did too... Zidonn sounds ridiculous T_T I'll... just pretend I didn't hear it XD

[fffan231]

Absolutely. Why add the E at the end if it was ZiDON? They thought it looked better? Stupid of them.

[PrincessNikikeya]

@fffan231 Cause its how its spelled. Its a French name.
