One Piece "Grand Advanture"



One Piece: Grand Adventure (Wan Pisu: Gurando Adobenchaa) is a video game for the Sony PlayStation 2 and the Nintendo GameCube. Unlike other One Piece video games, this one was developed specifically for the US. The gameplay is similar to One Piece Grand Battle! (known in Japan as One Piece: Grand Battle Rush!). Based on the popular Anime and Manga series, One Piece, Grand Adventure contains more characters (Zeff, Kuina), levels, and features, some of which were cut out of the U.S One Piece Grand Battle. game was also released in Korea, Australia, and in both Spain and the UK in Europe.

One of the new features in Grand Adventure is Adventure mode, which allows the player to sail the Grand Line and visit various islands from the One Piece anime, similar to The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker (though unlike The Wind Waker, you will be able to select certain "hotspots" and sail there automatically). On these islands, the character will engage in combat against other One Piece characters, who if defeated may join your character's crew, or play in various mini-games. In the fights, characters gain experience points and can level up, where the player can level up certain stats of the character (HP, attack, defense, etc.).

There are 5 known Captains and their difficulties:

  • Captain Monkey D. Luffy - Easy -level 3-30
  • Captain Buggy the Clown - Normal -level 5-30~
  • Mr.0/Sir Crocodile - Hard -level 20-40~
  • Captain Chaser(Captain Smoker) - Hardest -level 5-30~
  • Usopp - Pirate Panic (You can custom make your own team of pirates in Pirate Panic mode. You can also use any character you unlocked in the game.) -level 40-10

There is a total of 24 playable characters. There is a total of 51 support characters which the player can choose in addition to their playable character. While the support characters are not controllable, they are able to help the player when called out. There are six types of support characters: Dash, Jump, Ride, Recovery, Gun, and Area. Each type of support character has its own advantages and disadvantages in battle.

Each character is assigned support characters. Every character has at least one, but none of them have more than three. In some game modes, the support characters the player can choose from are limited to the ones assigned to that specific character. In most modes, all unlocked support characters are available. There are some exceptions where a support character can never be used by any character other than the one it was assigned to. In some cases, a support character does not even have a character that it is assigned to.
