Wakka, the lovable yet religiously dogmatic Blitzball captain from Final Fantasy X, has become a staple of internet culture due to his distinct voice, thick Besaid accent, and his recurring catchphrase, 'Ya?'. While he is a hero in the game, the internet has largely embraced him through a lens of irony, focusing on his intense prejudice against the technological Al Bhed and his exaggerated facial expressions. Memes often depict him in scenarios involving the teachings of Yevon, Blitzball strategies, or edited images featuring him with modern weaponry. His character has enjoyed a massive resurgence in popularity thanks to gaming communities and streamers who highlight the hilarious and often contradictory aspects of his personality, cementing him as one of the most recognizable RPG icons in meme history.
