One Piece's heroines got some of some gorgeous makeovers from Shojo's biggest artists! One Piece recently celebrated a massive milestone with the release of its 1000th chapter, and this has resulted in all sorts of fun new collaborations with other artists. Not only did Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump artists got to get in on the fun by sharing their takes on their favorite One Piece characters, but Shueisha's Shojo artists got in on the celebration as well. Because while the Shonen genre is sold to one particular audience, Eiichiro Oda's manga series has reached all sorts of different fans across the world.

As part of the celebration for One Piece's massive 1000 chapter milestone from a few weeks ago, Shueisha collaborated with artists from their Ribon magazine for a series of special illustrations putting new spins on heroines from Eiichiro Oda's series. Along with specialty illustrations for each one, the magazine itself revealed a spread featuring all of the makeovers. Check it out below:

The breakdown of One Piece character makeovers is as such:

• Charlotte Pudding by Tea Time ni Mahou o Kakete's Kokoro Otomezaka
