Based on the popular Japanese anime series "One Piece" comes another PlayStation2 release, this time a 1 one 1 fighting game, published by Bandai. The game includes the latest characters from the manga series, such as Franky and Aokiji from the Water Seven Saga.
Luffy and crew engage in another 3D fighting foray where their special abilities are mustered for maximum effect against opponents. The engine in the latest One Piece game uses two combo systems:
- Rumble Combo - Every blow registers on the combo meter which pops up in aqua and pink neon. Fighters may chain together punches, kicks, and special attacks which all register on the combo meter. When a mighty move is pulled off, the screen will pause for a microsecond and an animated sequence kicks off which shows the attack from multiple angles.
- Fake Combo/Command Arts - Refers to a combo where a menu is bought up with six slots which registers each combo move. To pull off the Fake Combo, perform up to six combos quickly before the time limit exhausts itself
Game Modes:
Fighting Mode - Up to 6 players may battle
Gamble Mode
VS Fight Mode
Training Mode
Recording Mode
Stages in the game include Partys Bar, Little Garden, and FU-SYA Village.
Thirteen characters are represented as follows:
Aokiji - Uses a head butt freeze attack that turns a foe into a block of ice.
Nico Robin - May pull off a wicked move where arms sprout from the floor and attack en masse.
Crocodile - Hook handed and wears a striped fur coat.
Tony Tony Chopper - Changes between its two forms - shrimp (Walk Point) and juggernaut (Heavy Point) thanks to eating the Hito Hito Fruit.
Roronoa Zoro - Triple sword handler who also uses one of the swords for defense. In a frenzied attack, the swords blur out a red and blue light show.
Sanji - Mighty kicks that have lengthy reach and may also perform an upside down helicopter kick. Sanji also uses his legs as a barrier guard.
Monky D. Luffy - Stretchy attacks and a strong jump ability. May perform an elongated kick when crouching for an upward smacking power blow.

Portgas D. Ace - Punches with rapid-fire bare fists and brother to Luffy.
