Worth trying out.

Before we start it should be noted that this game has a low chance of getting to the US thanks to the budget related prob(similar to the Jump Superstars problem).

Graphics

Graphics are pretty well done here.Characters look as if they were directly pulled out of the anime(though I thought Luffy grinned too much in this game).

Sound

Voiceacting is quite good too,but Buu and Goku's voices were quite annoying.It's also a pity the stages didn't play the soundtrack from the anime since that would give it more "feeling".

Gameplay

What really matters has been done right.The gameplay is similar to Super Smash Bros only this time it uses the characters from Dragonball Z,One Piece and Naruto.The different thing here is that it doesn't use the percentage knockout fights and it doesn't use life bars like Digimon Rumble Arena.Instead,this game utilizes a powerbar,which is separated into 4 parts if there are 4 players fighting.This motive is to collect the orbs that fall out to increase the power bar and if the battle ends,the player with the highest powerbar wins. Another thing that should be mentioned here is the multiplayer.Seems most games that copy Smash Bros have stellar multiplayer and so does this game.Up to 4 players can play,and unlikeDigimon Rumble Arena there is Team Play!There is also an extra multiplayer mode that allows you to use coupons won in Single Player mode and in this mode you can have all sorts of battle changes like Giant characters,Bomb Match and Left and Right buttons switched! The main negative point in gameplay is the ridiculous missions that are thrown at you.For example,some missions require you to squat down for 60 seconds in total!Besides that, there is a dumb unlocking system in this game,and that is a slot machine.It's impossible to get the JUMP symbols lined up together unless the system gives you that special chance time
(don't fret,the chance time happens often,but not too often)

Overall?

Great game,great multiplayer but bad lasting appeal.Get this for playing with friends but if you plan to play this for yourself,don't get it because there won't be anything to do after unlocking the characters and stages.
