I think it's because Bee wanted to say "Guy, explain.", a line used a few times in Tales of the Abyss. It's often used by Jade when he gets Guy to explain some past issue or something.
I think Bee didn't want to call you "a guy", but "Guy Cecil". O:

I think Bee didn't want to call you "a guy", but "Guy Cecil". O: Ooooh. I wasn't totally sure. But now I get the reference. I have played TotA. @bee: They're not pronouncing it wrong. They just spelled it wrong. It's supposed to be "Gai." That's how it is written in katakana. ALSO, wouldn't if make more sense for Gailardia to be shortend to "Gai" and not "Guy"? It's almost like how they spelled the name "Colette" wrong in the official Japanese ToS. They spelled it "Collet." Then in the anime it was "Colett" for some reason.

I think that the Japanese spelt it Collet instead of Colette because it makes more sense and if you're talking about the kanji and stuff wouldn't they spell it Koreto? I think that whole guy thing is just funny XD
Yeah... when I first beat TOS I was confused about that as well, why Lloyd had wings. I had to ask a few people to understand it but what I want to know is.... What's Sheena's real name?

...One thing, not related to the topic really, but response to Kelocena's 'Ore wa onna dattebayo!' title. 'Ore' as a pronoun used to be used by women, but no longer. ...And 'dattebayo' is a reference to a certain anime series... ...Nowadays, 'ore' is just used by punk guys and anime and video game characters, but you all knew that much.
Also, Guy's name actually likely originates from the Japanese name 'Gai', as in Gai Daigouji from Nadesico, or Gai Shishioh (Though most fans write it as 'Guy', it is spelled with the kanji for 'Victory Song') from GaoGaiGar. I hear it's soooort of like, say, 'Ace' or 'Max'. So, it's not the French name, it's the Japanese name, written as the english word in order to not confuse westerners, and also because it looks better, aesthetically speaking. Also, remember that Guy Cecil is an assumed name for the purpose of hiding his identity. If he had spelled it 'Gai Cecille', no one would have been fooled. No one is spelling anything wrong, he simply spelled it how he did for more anonymity. I mean, who the heck is going to notice someone with a name like 'Guy'? Sheena's real name is Sheena. She's lying to you! Nah, it's just forever a mystery.
I think in ToS, somewhere, they had the character names in roman letters, like they did for other games' characters (Phantasia, Destiny, and Tempest all do this, I know). The short story is that the Japanese are cuh-razy.
I was never surprised at a Lloyd with wings, to be honest... I mean, after his dad got wings from Mithos with the Eternal Sword, it wasn't shocking.

'Ore' as a pronoun used to be used by women, but no longer. ...And 'dattebayo' is a reference to a certain anime series... ...Nowadays, 'ore' is just used by punk guys and anime and video game characters, but you all knew that much. As far as I know "ore" has always been masculine. What you say could be true but knowing men at all, I find it hard to believe that they'd use "ore" if it had ever been feminine. And I bet there are some people in the real world who use "ore" but it kind of gives you the feeling they're compensating for something... By the way, I wouldn't trust Wiki on that. And "dattebayo" is not an anime reference. Just because Naruto made it popular doesn't mean it didn't exist before then. "Dattebayo" has no accurate translation so is either left untouched or interpreted based on context. Literally, it means something along the lines of "I say!" or less literally "ya hear!" It is something maybe said to emphasize a point or indicate that you're 100% sure of something. It's slang and what I like to call "guy speech" which is speech (slang) you're not likely to find a girl using. In most cases, people--both male and female--just use "yo." And so "dattebayo" became "dammit" because that was the most appropriate translation based on context. That said, if a girl says "Ore wa onna dattebayo!" you could say she's not making a very convincing argument. Sorry, I just had to clear that up. On Sheena's real name: We'll only know when Zelos marries her. Then he can tell the world! It's probably something like "Will Grow Up to Have Huge Melons." XD;;

Leik, major spoilas ahead ev'ryone! Beware!!!11!!I was never surprised at a Lloyd with wings, to be honest... I mean, after his dad got wings from Mithos with the Eternal Sword, it wasn't shocking. I don't find it that surprising that Lloyd has wings either, but I am kind of interested in the fact that he and Zelos got wings without that ugly transformation thing that Colette had to go through. Forgive me if that issue was addressed already... Another mystery in Symphonia that I'm curious about is the fact that Lloyd's exsphere seemed to absorb Mithos' at the end of the game--What was the signifigance? The answer is probably right in front of my face. D:And the biggest mystery of all: Why does Kratos wear purple tights?

Hmm. I think Lloyd's wings are different. I still think Origin gave them to him temporarily so he could fly. As for Zelos, he must have had a proper rune crest or whatever. Remember that Lloyd had to make one for Colette? The reason she was affected was because she didn't have one before.
Yeah, I don't get the absorption either. It might have something to do with Lloyd's special exsphere... And symbolic... of something. Showing Mithos the new world?
Kratos wears purple tight 'cause it makes him feel geeewd.
I'm curious as to Mithos' second form in the final battle. You beat his first form and then BAM! With no explanation or scene in between he's in this thing. What is it and where the hell did it come from?

i tought lloyd had wings because thats what the angeluss project was. also like kratos sayd to mithos in tales of fandome lloyd is special since anna was inpregnated with him while she still had teh exphere on her. but... heres something i dont get if mithos's exphere was drestroyed... i mean come on. we actuly see lloyd destroying it so there no mistery.... but....... WHY THE HELL DOES DHAOS'S FORM LOOK LIKE YGGDRASILL!??! i mean if they were thinking of m aking symphonia the prequel prologue what ever top phantasia. would it make more sence to to maby give us an idia to why the hell dhaos looks like yggdrasil i mean i had a theory about how deris karlan got even more populated with kids with douls.....but.......... wait a minute did i just awnser my question....?.................. no.... mithos wouldint......... or he would... i mean he is evil........ MITHOS YOU HOOKER!!! oh otehr wierd question. why does lezan.. laizen ... what ever that guys name is.... that guy in tos that you see in the anime that is a complet moron and gets into an arument with klarth...>_>;.... anyway..... why does he remind me of yuan so mutch?......... *just rmemeberd a small detail that makes everything wierder* .... i have no clue how yuan sounded in teh game but anime yuan is dhaos ;......... and sephiroth......>_>;..... but hes dhaos.... .... so .....if i go with my logic..... '?........ yuan and insulting him self?..... .............. UH!?!?

WHY THE HELL DOES DHAOS'S FORM LOOK LIKE YGGDRASILL!??! I think it's Yygdrasil that looks like Dhaos because Phantasia was out first right? There was a lot of things Symphonia used that were similar to Phantasia which is why people think it's a sequel. Just a guess. Kratos wears purple tights because it's hot. XD Actually probably because it's easy to move around in. That or they did it for the fandom. Yeah wth was that? Mithos' forms lol. That made no sense, probbaly just to make it look epic and stuff. A lot of ending bosses do wierd stuff like that to freak you out. At least he wasn't a god mod.

Denshi Jisho, actually. If I can't trust that thing, I've lost all faith in the 'net. Ore isn't polite, in a polite society, so... only punk guys would use it, I think. Yeah, yeah, I know that dattebayo isn't strictly an anime reference, but... Ha ha, sometimes I ramble off what I'm thinking without thinking about what I'm thinking. I'm not as dense as I seem. ...I mean, I hope not. If a girl said 'Ore wa onna dattebayo!' to me... I don't think I'd be convinced either.
