Did you know Capcom made a landlord game? Yes, it's true! In fact, if you scrutinize this Playstation gem you may find some compelling anti-landlord themes simmering beneath the surface. As our good friend Karl Marx would say "yummy yummy!"

BONUS MEME
It is incredible that this game has avoided basically all thorough inspection simply by being called One Piece Mansion. It seems literally everyone in the entire world feels real cheeky about bringing up the acclaimed manga One Piece by renowned artist Eiichiro Oda, starring Monkey D. Luffy and his Straw Hat pirates. I mean, we did it too, so we're not judging. We might as well just hone in on that non-existent connection a bit more. Why don't you write in the comments about your favourite One Piece character, and imagine how they would be as an apartment neighbour. My favourite is of course Carrot, I think she would overload the electrical sockets and stick weird shoji fanart in your mailbox.
