Is too derivative of ~

This deluxe hardcover graphic novel has gorgeous painted artwork, but it is let down by a serviceable story that is too derivative of Hiroaki Samura's BLADE OF THE IMMORTAL.

I'd like to know whether I can replace "of" with "from" in the adjective phrase "derivative of Hiroaki Samura's BLADE OF THE IMMORTAL."

Thank you in advance for your help.
