Also the game is full of OriginalGeneration characters, with the [[VillainProtagonist Goketsuji sisters]] as the only returning character, as well some of the [[LegacyCharacter children of the characters]] of the previous titles.

''Gōketsuji Ichizoku 3: Groove on Fight'', known simply as ''Groove on Fight'', is a FightingGame developed by Creator/{{Atlus}} and is known as the DistantFinale of the ''VideoGame/PowerInstinct'' series, made in a different way than the parent games, being DarkerAndEdgier, similar to that of ''VideoGame/{{Darkstalkers}}'', but still maintains some of the same humor that is particular to the series. Also the game is full of OriginalGeneration characters, with the [[VillainProtagonist Goketsuji sisters]] as the only returning character, as well some of the [[LegacyCharacter children of the characters]] of the previous titles.

The story of this {{sequel}} of the ''Power Instinct'' series takes place 20 years after the last Goketsuji tournament. Because the lack of family members, Oume and Otane makes an open tournament for the first time in the series in searching for a successor in the family. The graphic style of ''Groove on Fight'' is very different from its predecessors, as the sprites are smaller, but are more fluid and have an animated look to them much like several other 2D fighting games.

The game was released on Arcades in April 1997 and only received a home release on the Usefulnotes/SegaSaturn. Neither it or its console port [[NoExportForYou received a release outside of Japan]], but however we could play it thanks to some distribution on Arcades outside Japan, as well by UsefulNotes/{{Emulation}}. It was the last game in the series that was fully developed by Atlus.

For more info about this game, you can see more info in [[https://powerinstinct.wikia.com/wiki/Groove_On_Fight this article]] on the Power Instinct Wiki, as well [[https://segaretro.org/Groove_On_Fight:_Gouketsuji_Ichizoku_3 this one]] in Sega Retro Wiki. For tropes for the characters, see the ''Groove on Fight'' section in ''Characters/PowerInstinct'' Character page.

!!''Groove on Fight'' provides the following tropes:
* AlternateCompanyEquivalent: With Creator/{{SNK}}'s ''Garou: Mark of the Wolves'', the DistantFinale title of the ''VideoGame/FatalFury'' series that has a redesign in the sprites and has most of the cast being OriginalGeneration with a returning character (Terry Bogard) and a LegacyCharacter (Rock Howard).
* AnimeHair: Hizumi Yukinoue. Obviously, being an {{Otaku}}.
* BadassGay: Rudolph Gartheimer.
* BeastAndBeauty: The team of M.A.D. and Solis.
* BigBad: Bristol-D.
* {{Bishonen}}: This game has Larry and Chris, also a team.
* TheCameo:
** In ''Groove On Fight'', Goketsuji sisters' hyper move is about to summon the spirits of all characters from 1, 2 and ''Legends''. Also, some of the characters from these games appears as cameo in some of the endings.
** An Atlus example: In the first ''VideoGame/{{Persona|1}}'', the hero's alternate self in the Well of Mind and Souls, also known as the Alaya Cavern, is seen playing ''Groove On Fight''. This reference was carried down to the PSP remake as well.
* CoolHat: Chris has a stylish cowboy hat.
* CoolMask: Sujiroku has an {{Oni}}-like mask.
* {{Cosplay}}: Popura Hananokōji.
* DarkerAndEdgier: This game is probably the darkest game on the series, not just in story, the colors are greyish and the backgrounds almost all are lifeless and creepy.
* DistantFinale: ''Groove On Fight'' takes place 20 years after the last Goketsuji tournament (at least after ''Legends'').
* [[{{Expy}} Expies]]:
** Bristol-D looks like [[Franchise/XMen Mister Sinister]] and also [[ComicBook/GhostRider Blackheart]] as seen in ''VideoGame/MarvelSuperHeroes''.
** Damian Shade certainly looks like Creator/HermannHesse's ''Demian''.
** Remi Otogiri is a female version of [[VideoGame/StreetFighterII Guile]].
** Falco looks like a older Creator/SeanConnery.
** Some internal examples on the series:
*** Hizumi Yukinoue is an {{Otaku}}-friendly Saizo Hattori.
*** Solis' rejected designs show that she was probably based on Super Kurara.
* ExtremityExtremist: Bristol Weller only uses his kicks to fight [[spoiler:(or if he's losing, his pistol).]]
* [[WolverinePublicity Goketsuji Publicity]]: Just like in the main series.
* GrievousHarmWithABody: If your partner of one of the opponent's team is down on the stage, you can always grab him/her and throw it to the enemy to make more damage.
* HellBentForLeather: Rudolph Gartheimer.
* KidAppealCharacter: Popura and Remi.
* KidFromTheFuture: Solis, also lampshaded in one of her winquotes:
--> ''I am the girl that fights for the future!''
* KissingCousins: Totally averted in this game, which Oume and Otane had to open to public since there're not much Goketsuji heritage left to participate on the tournament.
* LegacyCharacter: Chris Wayne and Popura Hananokōji.
** StrongFamilyResemblance: Both characters resemble strongly their parents, Chris in the {{Moveset|Clone}} and popura in the resemblance.
* MadScientist: M.A.D. (his acronym/real name goes further with this).
* ManaMeter: Although was part of the series since ''Power Instinct 2'', here's more closer to ''Franchise/StreetFighter'' and the then-nascent ''VideoGame/MarvelvsCapcom'' series.
* MeaningfulName:
** ''Groove On Fight'' utilizes background dance music.
** On the subject of acronyms, Max Ax Dax in ''Groove On Fight'' was better known as M.A.D.
** Also Larry Light, a character with white hair and [[PlayingWithFire fire powers]].
* MusicalAssassin: Remi Otogiri. Sujiroku Tenjinbashi technically count since [[DualWielding his two sticks]] are drumsticks used for the festival.
* OnlyOneName: M.A.D. (subverted; his name is Max Ax Dax) and Falco.
* OriginalGeneration: With the exception of Oume and otane, all characters are original to this game. Partly subverted with Chris Wayne (son of Keith Wayne and Annie Hamilton) and Popura Hananokōji (daughter of Kurara/Clara).
* PlayingWithFire: Larry Light.
* RedOniBlueOni: Larry and Chris. Inverted since Chris is more impulsive than Larry.
* RuleOfThree: Strangely enough, each character in ''Groove On Fight'' has a three-pieced special move.
* SeriesMascot: Solis R8000 as seen in the main image, following closely by Larry Light.
* ShockAndAwe: Chris, Solis, M.A.D. and Sujiroku.
* SilverFox: Falco. Larry certainly qualifies.
* TheSponsor: Remi's family funds Sujiroku's family
* {{Stripperiffic}}: Solis R8000.
* SubBoss: Rudolph Gartheimer.
* TagTeam: The second (and last) title of the series that have this fighting setting.
* WidgetSeries: Just like the main series (as well most of Atlus titles).
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Larry has white hair, Chris has light purple hair and Remi has pink hair. Averted with Sujiroku, that red hair is a wig.
