(PS1) Shaman King : Spirit of Shamans

Developed by Dimps and published by Bandai in 2002, it’s based on the anime series and the events inside the game cover the first half of the overall story.
It’s a classic 2D fighting game with 12 characters playable, there are 3 buttons for weak, strong attack and block and L and R are used for dash and back-dash; the special move is assigned to triangle but unlike other fighting games needs a combination of two directions like a normal combo (for example back, forward, triangle) and every character has 2 unique special moves.
Shaman King was released only in Japan.
