Albeit being the reason behind the events of Final Fantasy X-2, Shuyin is only faintly introduced. He doesn’t appear “in flesh” until the begin of the penultimate chapter, giving his character an halo of mystery that isn’t cleared until the later part of the game.

Shuyin was a blitzball player, like Tidus. It’s precisely his uncanny resemblance to the hero of Final Fantasy X, that surprised and confused people when Shuyin’s character design appeared. Many rumours began to fly, from reincarnation to evil twin, Shuyin was seen as Tidus’ clone. Now that years have passed since the release of Final Fantasy X-2 things are clearer, but wait…in this section there will be only simple details.
