Shaman King: Funbari Spirits (Japanese: シャーマンキング ふんばりスピリッツ, Hepburn: Shāman Kingu Funbari Supirittsu), is a cel-shaded 2D style fighting game released in Japan only on April 8, 2004. It is not to be confused with Shaman King: Power of Spirit, a game produced by Konami to go along with the 4kids Entertainment dub. It is a pseudo-sequel to Shaman King: Spirit of Shamans, a 2D fighting game for the PlayStation. This game is based upon the manga. This is the last Shaman King game to be released in Japan.
Gameplay
[edit]Funbari Spirits features simple controls and plays like a 2D fighter despite being 3D. The modes include a 2 player mode, an adventure mode, a mini game mode, and a free play mode along with a training mode. The game also has the voice actors from the original anime, as well as cel-shaded graphics. All of the main characters are present as playable characters, along with a few characters that only appear in this game.
