| - In early 2008 brother and sister named on Youtube as Nisinator1 and Hilzabee started a parody called Final Fantasy X The Real Version featuring only one episode where Yuna talked to the people of Spira about hypello rights. Realising that this episode wasn't funny at all they nipped the series in the bud and even deleted the video off their combined account HilzXAdamXAndXStuff. Then after watching other parody series such as Alternate Reality Dragon Ball Z, Yugioh Abridged, Naruto abridged and various others, they absorbed certain ideas and influences from these series until they figured out the direction they wanted to take for their own abridged series in late 2008 in the form of Final Fantasy X The Abridged Series. By February of 2010, HilzXAdamXandXstuff had created 20 episodes for the series, and had gained a loyal fanbase with at least a thousand views on pretty much every episode in their collection. It was just before the series reached the 10's in the episode count that some characters were starting to sound similar as there are only so many voices two people can do. Because of this new cast members were added to the series such as Deeemm13 staring antagonist and perverted character Seymour, xXSweetxNightmareXx staring Captain Lucile and Belgamine (or in this series The Great Belgaminge), ShotGroinProductions as Mika and Kinoc and let's not forget Redjacketalchemist as God in episode 9 and AliTietze as Yunalesca. As the series progressed many running gags came into play such as Tidus (pronounced Ty-Dus in their series) complaning about the absurd concepts of the game, Yuna being the reject of the group, Kimahri being obsessed with cookies, and Wakka never failing to remind the gang of what they're about to do even though he's already done so a million times before. After the termination of the hilzXadamXandXstuff youtube account, they decided to make remastered versions of the early episodes of Final Fantasy X:TAS, with updated script, voice acting and editing, releasing the first episode on November 16, 2010, on their new account, YaCrazyChannel. Originally, it was intended that the remasterd versions would cover at least episodes 1-21, as the quality begins to pick up from episode 22 and onwards, but due to the length of time it was taking to finish the remakes, they only reached episode 11, before deciding to simply upload the rest of the original episodes from 12-35. Episodes were reposted at about a rate of one episode per day between August 1st and August 24th of 2011, leading into the brand new episode, Episode 36, that was posted on August 27th of 2011.
