Q: What is a bang?
A bang is an event/challenge based around collaboration between authors and artists. It's where an author will write out a work with the events required minimum word count and the artist will claim which works based on summary they wish to create artwork for.This bang in particular focuses on the fandom One Piece and pairings that are considered rare pairs!

We've set the rule that any pairing that has 500 works or less counts as a one piece rare pair. If a creator has a pairing in mind, they're sure is considered rare, but has more than 500 works, please don't hesitate to DM one of the mods and we will let you know.
