So I played ONE PIECE GRAND ADVENTURE For The First Time...
With the release of One Piece Odyssey and a recent One Piece movie, more and more newcomers are gravitating toward the series. I am one such newcomer and I'm upset that I'm so late to the party because One Piece (at least in its first 100 episodes) rules! To make up for lost time, I decided to dive into one of the original One Piece video games in celebration of the launch of One Piece Odyssey. What does this 3D Anime fighter get right and wrong? I set sail and find out.

Agreed! And just imagine what could be done with a grand adventure 2 with today’s technology. The adventure mode could be way more extensive since there’s so many more arcs to cover now than there was when this was made and the roster of characters could be absolutely massive. Ah man it gets me hyped just thinking about the possibilities. For as popular as one piece is we really don’t get many one piece games. Dragonball gets like 1 new game every single year

I remember playing this game as a kid I liked Don Krieg so much I overleveled him and he was so strong, I tried doing it again when I picked up the game years later and have no idea how I grinded that much he's so weak when you pick him up 😂😂
Played this for the first time last year. I truly loved the campaigns and how you could level your characters how you wanted . Made for very fun Role Play to have zoro have max attack , Usopp have the best item skills, and luffy being a durable tank. It made me actually think about who to take into fights and made the game not as easy as it coulda been. Its all the presentation and fan service I love. Chopper having his walking sound effects is such a small and appreciated detail. A true hidden gem.

The character art also went hard. I remember geeking out getting to play as shanks, mihawk, ace, crocodile, and eneru. eneru was easily my favorite character to play as. so fun.
This is what all the later entries missed: the fun and goofiness of the world. One Piece doesn't do your traditional fights; they get silly and wild with each escalation. Other characters fly in and out during battles.
This was my first One Piece Game. I still have it! I grew up on the 4kids Dub. I started on this, this dub cast was the first dub cast I was introduced to. So this game will forever be nostalgic for me! Focus on it in portions. You can take breaks in between, but each major portion is more or less a good bulk to binge, and then take a break, I find. East Blue - Romance Dawn to Loguetown Grand Line - Drum Island to Skypeia Water 7 Saga - Water 7 to Thriller Bark Whitebeard War - Sabaody Archipelago to Summit War/Marineford Timeskip Part 1 - Fishmen Island to Dressrosa Big Mom Arc - Zou to Levely Wano Arc - Everything Else to Now

goated voice. I prefer one piece in subbed so I never had an issue with the 4kids dub. I saw it as a funny parody. the 4kids opening also went hard.
Loved this game! I could play it all day. I played Power Stone few years back, but It reminds me of that kind of gameplay. Glad to know that people still play 🙏🏾
A bit of One Piece videogame history and trivia on Grand Adventure: It's one of two "only in America" games that 4Kids commissioned from Bandai. The cover of the game features an image of Luffy done for the PS2 only Japanese fighting game Fighting For One Piece. The islands of Grand Adventure go from Luffy's homeland all the way to Long Ring Long Land, but weirdly Long Ring Long Land's characters are absent from the game.
Huge fan of both you and One Piece. I haven't played many games but would love to see your take on them in order!
I love Sanji's voice in this game I think that's the version that does the Mr.Prince scene the best lmao
Classic. Put mad hours into this one back on the PS2. I actually bought it a few months ago.
Dude this was my jam growing up, awesome video. You should check out the Pirate Warriors series whenever you get the chance.
I played this on GameCube! I loved it. Nowadays I'm working my way through the anime too, and I'm almost up to episode 900! I think this game had a strong influence on my decision to watch the show all the way through, as it left such a good impression of One Piece in my mind...even better than the dubbed episodes I had watched up to that point. (And yeah, after watching so much of the subbed show, it's a little jarring to hear the 4Kids voices here, but I do find them kind of nostalgic in a way)
I played this game so hard that I had unlocked it to 100% before the internet was a thing. I had to endure Sanji's nasal voice but overall it was a fun game.
Would LOVE to see more One Piece Content (its my absolute fave IP). Looking forward to hearing more from you about it as you make your way thru the series. If ever you get the urge, the Manga is 1000x better than the anime (and I love the anime) so you should defonitely read it atvleast once in your life
I for one miss the voice actor of Guts as Zoro. He didnt sound bad it was just a bad 4kids script
Glad you’re going back to one of the old One Piece games!
One of my favorite one piece games of all time. Also I told my little bro about the mindset you have just enjoy it don't worry about the episodes
That’s exactly how I felt years ago when it was brought up to me and I was like “Pirates that can’t swim, sounds silly” and got into Naruto instead… years later I started watching One Piece and deeply regret pushing it off as long as I did. Such an amazing story
Once you get more caught up to the show I would love to see you play the other games. I just picked up Odyssey and I'm having a good time I just wish it wasn't so easy. I highly recommend one piece burning blood I think it's a great fighting game but make sure you're caught up to at least time skip before you play.
Played this game when i was younger before i knew it was a anime and now im caught up to the anime, fun game over all and actually challenging at times within the 5 different campaigns
I never played Grand Adventure but I remember playing Grand Battle on PS2 and it was amazing! Lots of nostalgia!
There’s a ton of filler in one piece anime but what sucks is they blend it in with vital stuff so you can’t skip it haha.
Zoro’s name change was actually a change done by Viz when they localized the manga to avoid getting sued by Zorro’s owners. It is still Zolo being used in the official English manga

Probably the best one piece game series of them all besides pirate warriors of course 😅
One of my all time favorite games! This and the first few arcs of One piece are pure nostalgia 🤌
Totally forgot about this game! Only ever had the demo disc with this on it but me and my brother spent an entire saturday playing it lol. Would love to pick it up at some point!
The first 30 episodes at least are not even close to showing what makes this show great. It is like fans going crazy over the 12 episodes of Chainsaw Man saying it is the best thing when nothing in those 12 episodes really show the real Chainsaw Man experience. So saying in the first episodes of One Piece you fell in love with the series is a bit too much. But I am glad you like it, you are in for a ride.

Be careful with Odyssey. The whole premise is going back through old arcs but with all the strawhats. So there's probably gonna be quite a bit of spoilers.
Man I remember getting this game from gamestop the day it came out. Makes me feel old. Even with the 4kids voice I still liked this game and the one before it Grand Battle.
I remember being confused as to who 2 bon clay was when I unlocked him because he didn’t air on tv at the time of this games release lol.
14:45 Mortal Kombat: Konquest Mode Started with Deadly Alliance and ended with Armageddon I believe. I remember playing as Shujinko in Deception extremely vividly, as Master Bo Rai cho was a Trip. His quests were difficult as hell, because he had you pulling off specific combo strings just to progress. I also remember my sister using Mileena, and spamming her Axel Kick because it was Busted as hell.
@jeremyroberts8822

You are correct. Deception had the best version of conquest mode IMO where you played as shujinko. I thought it was cool how he aged more and more as you got through it and how you would encounter all kinds of different MK characters along the way. I liked Armageddons conquest mode too just not as much as deception
This game is how I got into One Piece. I played it before I watched it because my boy let me borrow this game
Your lady is a strong woman to watch that many episodes I binge watch One Piece a month and I'm on Episode 600
Man! this is a nostalgia trip for me. I played this game when so I was so young and still not good in English (English is not my first language.) I remember that I found some kind of exploit when I played as Ace that let me 1 shot opponent. IIRC, if you use 1 his super attack that he makes a fire wall that expands and push outward very near the opponent, the opponent will take full damage of condensed fire wall. Letting you win easily.
I guess the Chibi designs were made that way because of the limitations of the hardware at the time for a 3D battle game with a lot of stuff happening at the same time. The gameplay is really fun tho. Would be cool to see a modern iteration of this kind of game without the Chibi designs and more depth in the combat. But this game was my childhood anyway, me and my cousins play it a lot on GameCube
My mom randomly picked this game up for my 6th birthda at a Big K mart in PR. Best decision she ever made introducing me to the series.
fun story about this game i bought it when i was a kid from gamestop for the gamecube. the gamestop guy put grand battle in the case tho i ended up noticing a few days later told my grandpa and we took it back and got the grand adventure game. the reason i noticed was because on the back of the case it shows you racing the chickens and a few other characters that aren't in grand battle and i was like how do i unlock this stuff because grand battle was a relatively short game.
My friend got into it in weird way he watched the episodes of east blue special cover the first four of the crew, then jumped to drum kingdom then watched movie 8 the slimmed down version of alabasta, so he was able to get to sky island alot faster

Great video Matty. Maybe you can go over the One Piece game for the Wii. Also, the Fairy Tail game you mentioned is published by Koei Tecmo not Bandai Namco.
dude one piece is life , i have watched one piece 3times and still planning to watch it again some time later. and also I read manga too...best manga btw
One game I would recommend especially if you this early in the series is One Piece Round the Land for the PS2. It's a 2D plattformer (or 2D and a half if you like) with 3D graphics and environments. It goes up to the end of Skypiea so it should be right up your alley if you've covered that ground. The game itself is a lot of fun and actually is the first to implement the mechanics you described in your Odyssey review. I'm talking about some paths being blocked off until you come back with a different character. For me personally this is by far my favorite One Piece game as it is just so much fun and you can tell it was done not as a cash crab but by someone loving the series. Sure it might be dated by todays standards but I think that someone like you, who appreciates retro games, will totally get some enjoyment out of it. I don't know if it was released in the states though as I played the European version we had there. Also another game I liked is Pirates Carnival for the PS2. It's pretty much Mario Party in a One Piece setting, where they actually managed to the vast majority of minigames something that actually happened in the series, which is an amazing feat if you ask me. However that one was get's the credit it deserves and I don't know why. If you ever get your hand on it, I'd like to hear your take on it. To this day I don't get why people say that this game fails as a party game.

@@wonder-games3579 I just had to look it up as I only earn the German and Japanese versions but it turns out you're right, there was never a release with English text. I would still say go for it if you have a PS2 that would play games that are not your region. The PS2 era One Piece games focus more on the fun of letting you control your favorite characters in iconic locations rather than the modern games that don't really know what to do with the IP. The story in Round the Land is really miniscule. Basically the Strawhats land on a party island, where they can run around and collect treasure (and balloons) to get the big treasure at the end. There's no complex reason why they encounter their old adversaries on places that are a not to classic locations. It just happens. And it's a crapton of fun. The only downside is that you would perhaps miss out on unique conversations. Like if your main is Chopper and you start the Buggy boss battle both Chopper and Buggy will comment on each others noses which is a spicy subject for both of them.
Mannnn me n my brothers had a demo disc with this game on it and played it allll the time...we always wanted the full game but for some reason never got it..many years later we got the full game, played it and found it underwhelming..i guess growing up played a part in that..but the story mode was also super unfairly difficult at times which hurt the experience for us a lot

Nice review! When i was a kid i Loved this one... piece .... Before we watched 1000+ ep. Lol This game introduced me to the series possibly the best One piece game ever made... Grand Adventure captures the originality of the anime There was some one piece games i never played released in Japan only.. I believe.... But I think Grand Adventure was the best one piece game.... Until the newest one piece of Odyssey game that just released in 2023
Ahh yes. spent sooo many hours with this beauty. good times!

Nakama!!! New subscriber here, I'm so glad you enjoying One Piece 😁 If I have to give you recomendation please try One Piece Grand Battle 2 and 3 on PS 2, it's a huge improvement from the previous one and I think you will like it if you fans of the early arc
Guess I'll start watching One Piece again soon, loved it back when it started.
This game was so much fun, not even the shit voice acting could ruin it for me. Always loved using Chopper's Walk Point move were he zigzags across the stage to catch my opponents off guard. Good times.
I love Luffy because despite how powerful he is and despite how often everything comes down to him, he isn’t unassailable and doesn’t just ALWAYS pull out a new power up every time he fights an arc villain. Dude relys SO DAMN HEAVY on his crew which he should. He is a pirate and he has an actual crew. Secondly, everything he does, even the ones that are new forms TEND to be less of a power up and more a creative change to how he uses his powers and shows again that he earns everything he does.
We have been on the same page recently lol just replayed this one a bit last week
YO I NEVER KNEW THEY MADE A SEQUEL TO THAT ONE PIECE ARENA FIGHTER!!! hot damn i have so much nostalgia for the *objectively* best voice cast, the 4Kids dub. New Jersey Sanji and southern bell Nico Robin (for better or worse) shaped my idea of good voice acting and i wouldnt have it any other way
I don't know if you saw clips of the 4Kids dub, but I can imagine you yelling Luffy the Corgi's name like Zoro did to Luffy in Whiskey Peak.
One of the best OP game ever. Gameplay is absurd for a Fighter game, the arenas are interactive, good movepool for the characters and nice combos and interactions with the sorroundings. The only downside is the absence of Wiper, Aokiji and Foxy (there were only available in a Japanese version)

You should do videos on the .hack series. I love the 2000s vibes
so i'm 1 minuet into the video and I just wanted to say, as a One Piece fan who caught up a few years ago, I completely recommend taking you time on the series and not binging through it all like crazy. Enjoy the adventure. One Piece should be considered a marathon, not a race. You gotta pace yourself. There is allot to soak in, and some things that don't seem important at all right now will blind side you later if your rushing. Take breaks if you need to, and remember you can always come back to it later!
The Japanese voice actor for Krillin is Luffy. Mayumi Tanaka.
One piece romance dawn for the 3ds plays exactly like one piece odyssey. Sadly the game came out limited release in the USA
I don’t care if the 4kids dub is “bad” the rap makes up for it all. Plus if you get mad at the One Piece dub name changes you have to get mad at Yugioh too. You can’t be mad at one and ok with another.
One of my favorite games growing up
Not sure if anyone answered this for you, but the reason you hear Dragon Ball actors in One Piece is funimation is based out of Dallas, at the time actors had to be local or at least able to come to Dallas to record. This isn’t the case now, but thats why so many of Funimation licensed anime had the same actors.
People get too caught up on trying to catch up. Just gotta take it slow and enjoy it. I've been reading one piece for years at this point and i kinda forgot everything so im going back and rereading the whole thing from the start. Im currently on chapter 119 and have fallen in love with OP all over again.
Did you know zoro from 4kids has the same VA as guts from berserk? My mind was blown by this
I remember playing this off the Demo Disc from PlayStation Magazine 😮💨
Matty! Do the ps2 inuyasha games! They're so much fun. I've been buying up old anime games and have been having a ton of fun. You might have some fun with the old full metal games as well.
I remember playing this game at a friend’s house one time and completely dominating with Zoro.
I rented Grand battle as a kid and bought it a couples years back. I dodged Grand Adventure because 2 or 3 characters were cut due to 4kids OP weren't up to their reveal in episodes. Foxy & Aokiji were missing, I think Pandaman too? The japanese ver(Grand Battle Rush!) has them all.
This game was so fun i played it alot as a kid it got me into the anime and the soundtrack is so good
This was my fave gamecube game.
I loved this game growing up used to play this with my best friend all the time 🤟🏾
In the english manga, Zoro is actually "Zolo" to always remind fans of the 4kids dub (which I was introduced to the series with and very much love).
