Twitter user @OpalisArt recently posted a fan edit of a One Piece and Pulp Fiction crossover. The artist posted the original work and an alternate version in celebration of Nico Robin’s birthday, which passed on February 6th.

The community has reacted overwhelmingly positively to the tweet, which, as of this writing, has over five thousand retweets and more than 28 thousand likes.

Follow along as this article highlights the two versions of the photo and how the One Piece community has responded to them thus far.


One Piece and Pulp Fiction original content crossover from @OpalisArt blows up on Twitter

@OpalisArt's original artwork crossover

@OpalisArt’s One Piece and Pulp Fiction crossover has taken the community by storm. With the original post having thousands of retweets and likes, the artist is getting support for her work from everywhere.

The original photo showcases the classic Pulp Fiction movie poster, featuring Uma Thurman lying down on her stomach while reading a magazine and smoking a cigarette.

In @OpalisArt’s version, Uma Thurman has been replaced by Nico Robin, still wearing the black dress and heels that the actress wears.

The names of the Straw Hats and a brief description of the series are displayed where the names of stars and production companies normally appear.

@OpalisArt also tweeted out an alternate version of the artwork, in which the title is replaced with "Peak Fiction."

The joke in titling the crossover Peak Fiction is two-fold. One is a play on the words of the original Pulp Fiction title, and the other is a reference to a popular claim by the One Piece fanbase. Oftentimes, fans will claim the series is “peak fiction” due to the quality and longevity it has seen.

@OpalisArt seemingly agrees with these claims, both implicitly and explicitly, by creating the alternate take and joking that the variant is “more appropriately titled” than the original.

Regardless of whether fans agree with her claim or not, both the original image and Peak Fiction variant have proven wildly popular amongst the Twitter fanbase.


In summation

With over 34 thousand total interactions in the original tweet, the One Piece community clearly loves @OpalisArt’s artwork.

The fact that her work features Robin, one of the most popular characters on the show, contributed greatly to the piece's success.

In fact, many fans have responded to the tweet, saying they always viewed Uma Thurman and Nico Robin as extremely similar.

Be sure to follow along for any and all One Piece news as the year of the series’ 25th anniversary progresses.
