all the awesomeness of anime delivered
directly to your gaming system welcome
to watchmojo.com and today we’ll be
counting down our picks for the top 10
video games based on anime and manga for
this list we’ll be taking a look at
videogames inspired by either the
characters or the narrative of both
anime and manga series both handheld and
consoles are accepted though we won’t be
including titles that were based on a
property that was originally a videogame
and then turned into an anime such as
fate extra number 10 sort art online
hollow fragment since the anime itself
is about characters trapped inside an
MMORPG it only makes sense that the
sword art online series would get its
own video game as the sequel to sword
art online infinity moment this PS Vita
title continues the alternate storyline
set out by its predecessor as players
take control of protagonist key dito
follow me sigil Maidana listen focusing
heavenly on the dungeon crawler element
that most online games are known for
fans are given the chance to recruit
dozens of characters for their campaign
while also indulging in some good old
fanservice along the way
basket number nine yugioh world wide
edition stairway to the destined duel
while the king of duel monsters has had
many titles launched on multiple
platforms we found that the series of
similar yet fun Game Boy games really
stood out among the pack fans of the
show and the card game got the chance to
play as themselves build their deck and
compete in tournament style competitions
there was no shortage of difficult
opponents branching storylines and
bragging rights for those who actually
got to dethrone Yugi and Kaiba
while the Nintendo DS inevitably took
over the series the original hai
definitely came from the classic
handheld number eight digimon rumble
arena the digital monsters may not have
had the empire that their pocket monster
counterparts inhabited but they did give
us an exceptionally fun fighting game
taking digimon from over three seasons
of the show
players could deliver real time damage
in an endless brawl with their favorite
character the ability to digivolve
mid-fight also made for an interesting
mechanic nothing is more hilarious than
seeing the digital worlds version of the
Grim Reaper care apart an opponent’s
digital bunny graphics may not have aged
well but the nostalgia factor alone
makes it a worthy contender oh and the
less said about those minigames the
better
number seven one piece unlimited world
read I’m smoking money I guess Anna
you can’t talk about anime inspired
videogames without mentioning one piece
monkey D Luffy and his crew don’t just
have an extreme amount of episodes
movies and manga chapters they have over
30 games under their belt I want it by
Icona in this multi-platform title the
straw hats must battle an enemy with the
ability to create copies of all their
foes and abilities while it may be an
excuse to bring together one pieces
extensive character roster the graphics
and non-stop brawling make for an
exciting time all the same
not to mention setting the stage for
fights never seen in the anime before no
like you know go to some Anya’s Gaetano
Espada number six Mobile Suit Gundam
tiyanak front
there are no shortage of narratives in
the Mobile Suit Gundam franchise but
most fans can agree that one of the
greatest was the one year war between
this spacefaring principality of zeon
and the planet based Earth Federation I
then proposed to form a special task
force consisting on mobile suits
codenamed
midnight Fenrir unit the forces of Zeon
where the antagonists throughout the
series run which is what gave this game
such a unique premise playing solely a
Zeon commandos players got to witness
like in most wars that there are good
people and noble intentions on both
sides with a mixture of stealth and
strategy as well as giant robots this is
a game worthy of the Gundam name what
are you sure you don’t see
number 5 Naruto she put in Ultimate
Ninja Storm 4
Naruto’s final outing definitely didn’t
hold back as the last entry of the
Ultimate Ninja Storm franchise the game
covers the conclusion to the great ninja
war as well as Naruto’s tale I want you
to have my Sharingan as a result the
narrative goes ball to the Wold crazy
amazing graphics devastating ninjutsu
and over a hundred fully playable
characters plus quite a few giant demon
thrown into the mix just for the hell of
it
fans of the series have the finale
they’ve been waiting for Wow casual
fighting game fans will be surprised at
just how accessible and fluid the
mechanics of this gorgeous looking
shinobi showdown are number 4 Astro Boy
Omega factor one of the original poster
boys for animated heroes finally got his
due with the release of this acclaimed
title for the Game Boy Advance
pushing the visuals and gameplay
elements beyond the boundaries of most
Omega factor is just as much of a
spectacle to watch as it is to play
taking inspiration from atoms and
ventures from the series reboot no area
was off-limits as the skies and enemy
bases were there to push through an
abundance of enemies gave the game a
sense of challenge but due to all the
care that the creator’s put in bringing
the character to life and never felt
tedious at all
number three JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure
much like its recent spectacular return
to the animated world Jojo and the gang
were given a sharp makeover in the 2013
release JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure
all-star battle while that’s certainly a
solid title our vote had to go to the
classic fighting game given to us by
Capcom at the turn of the century
following the storyline of Stardust
Crusaders players finally got to play as
the Joestar family as well as the wicked
do Brando and beat the ever-loving crap
out of each other with all the stands or
Aurora’s and bizarreness you could ever
want there is no excuse for a fan of the
series to not have played this number to
Dragon Ball Z Budokai 3
Budo Kai series is often considered to
be the go-to when it comes to Dragon
Ball fighting games out of all the
various entries our pick had to go to
the final installment of the franchise
while the previous games had covered the
sand Frieza cell and poo sagas Budokai 3
gave us an extended look at the rest of
the franchise including GT sharper
graphics ensure that every character’s
ultimate attack looked just as
devastating as it sounded it also gave
us the ability to perform the legendary
fusion dance bonus before we reveal our
number one pick here are a few honorable
mentions
beside the destiny
number one jump ultimate stars there’s
no denying it when our favorite anime
and manga characters cross over in any
kind of way if it’s gonna be pretty hype
nowhere was this better exemplified than
in the 2d side-scroller beat him up for
the Nintendo DS although the reason
j-stars victory vs was a close contender
the game has over 300 characters making
appearances is either combatants or
support characters all from manga
published by Shonen Jump magazine with
characters from hit series like bleach
one-piece gin Tama Death Note
Dragon Ball Hunter x Hunter Narrows o
JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure and a whole
plethora of others this is a dream game
for fans of any of jobs greatest hits do
