1.  CONTROLS

Overview on how to rock the house with your favorite One Piece character.

       A. Basics:

       Attack- Circle
       Jump- Triangle
       Guard- X
       Throw/Pick Up- Square
       Double Jump- Squarex2
       R1/L1- Activate Super

       B. Advanced

       Getting-up Attack- Hit attack while on ground
       Fall Recovery- Hit any button before landing.

       C. Supers

       In order to execute a Super, you press R1 or L1, and then input the
       command for your character's Super. Each character has different level
       Supers. Most characters have Level 1 and Level 2 Supers, although some
       characters have a Level 3 Super. In order to achieve these levels, your
       life gauge has to be at a certain point. Once you reach this point, you
       are able to perform your Supers at any time, indefinitely.

       Example:

---------- ---------- ----------
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
---------- ---------- ----------
       Lvl 2    Lvl 1

---------- ---------- ----------
||||||||||||||||||||||
---------- ---------- ----------
                    Lvl 1*
*At this point, you'll be able to perform a Level 1 Super.

---------- ---------- ----------
|||||||||||
---------- ---------- ----------
      Lvl 2*       Lvl 1*
*At this point, you'll be able to perform a Level 1 and Level 2 Super.

2. START MENU

Overview for the modes you have to choose from on the start menu.

       A. Event Mode
       This mode lets you play through the story for your character. Only the 5
       Hero characters are available when first going into this mode. A golden
       crown will appear over every character you have won the game with. This
       mode is where you will unlock the villains and secret characters.

       B. Grand Battle
       Think of this mode as the versus mode. You can select 1P vs 2P, 1P vs
       Computer, and Computer vs 2P. Everyone that is selectable in the Event
       Mode is also selectable in Grand Battle mode. However, the villain
       characters are available without unlocking them only in this mode.

       C. Options

        i. Computer Difficulty
               Strong  Normal  Weak

        ii. Match Time
               Infinite        90      60

        iii. Item
               Plentiful   Normal  Scarce

        iv. Character Selection Screen
               Normal  Simple

        v. Sound
               Stereo    Monoraul

        vi. Express Help
               I have no idea what this does. Someone tell me. ([email protected])

        vii. Auto Save
               Activate            Don't Activate

        viii. Memory Card
               Gives you the save, and load options. The last selection is to
               return, as in to return to the previous menu.

        ix. Analog Controller Rumble
               Choosing this option brings up a window where you can choose to
               activate the vibration feature for your analog controllers for
               either the 1P or 2P.

        x. Default Settings
               Self explanatory.

       D. Treasure Chest
       This mode shows you all the characters that are currently available to
       play, and the supers for them. It also gives you the option to listen to
       voice samples for each character.

3. STAGES

Overview for the stages that are available for you to battle in.

       A. Beach's Sloping Road
       This stage is inspired from the battle between the heroes and Captain
       Kuro's band of pirates.

       B. Marine Restaraunt Baratei
       This stage is inspired from the battle between the heroes and Don Krieg's
       band of pirates.

       C. Arlong Park
       This stage is inspired from the battle between the heroes and Arlong's
       band of pirates.

       D. Fuusha Village's Harbor
       Uhhh.... I forgot.

       E. Golden Roger's Execution Square
       This stage is inspired from the battle between Monkey and Buggy with
       Alvida. This is also the part in the opening when Buggy is going to cut
       Monkey's head off, but Buggy is struck with lightning before he is able to
       swing.

       F. Inside Rabuun's Stomach
       This stage is inspired from when the heroes are inside of a whale's
       stomach on their way to the Grand Line.

4. ITEMS

Overview for the items that you'll encounter while fighting. There are three
containers for items in this game.  They are a barrel, a box, and a treasure
chest.

       A. Recovery
       There are three items you can get that will recover your life. In order
       from weakest recovery value to strongest, here they are: Onigiri, Beer,
       Meat.

       B. Poison
       There are three items you can get that will make your character poisoned.
       In order from weakest poison to the most potent, here they are: Poison
       Onigiri, Poison Beer, Poison Meat.

       C. Hazard
       There are three items that are hazardous to both characters. The bomb,
       Which can be thrown at a character to deal damage. The lantern, which will
       deal damage upon impact, as well as deal damage for as long as they're on
       fire. Finally, the shark teeth, which you can only find in the Arlong Park
       stage. They can be thrown at an opponent for damage as well. There is also
       a more rare hazardous item known as Gaimon. It's, well, Gaimon. A small
       man in a mining cart with an afro, and a pistol. If not picked up, or hit,
       he will slide around, shooting. If you pick him up, you can point him at
       your opponent, and he'll fire shots from his pistol.

       D. Treasure
       There are four items that, well, quite frankly, I'm not sure what they do.
       If you'd like to let me know: [email protected]. There is the
       Treasure Sword, the King's Crown, the Coin, and the Jewel. When you get
       any of these items the icon will appear under your life bar. If you get
       the Jewel, it will display the Coin, the King's Crown, and the Treasured
       Sword under your life bar, rather than the Jewel itself.

9. THANKS

Uhh... I don't really know if there is any...yet. Well, I guess I can thank
Clint for the initial interest in the One Piece manga. Heh. ^_^ That's about as
much as I've got right now. Oh, and thank you me, for sacrificing your precious
homework time to write this useless FAQ that no-one will read. ^_~
