Here's a few:
The runup to the 5th Grail War (only Illya has her Servant yet) gets badly derailed when the Fuyuki City High School class that includes Shirou and Rin wakes up to find themselves trapped in Battle Royale... Shirou is going to Save Everyone, of course (his Structural Grasp vs the explosive collars? Easy!), Rin is trying desperately to keep him from blowing the secret of magic, since the battle zone is heavily covered with cameras, Issei is sticking close to both of them to keep Shirou safe from Rin, and Shinji is pure dead weight. Figure out a way to drag Sakura into the mix, and we're all set. Then of course Illya has a conniption b/c NO ONE gets to kill her onii-chan except HER, and decides to gatecrash the party with Berserker, Clock Tower and Einzbern secrecy rules be damned. Gigglemesh and Koto-mime will, of course, show up just to see the suffering, and Assassin-Sensri might just decide that he's going to do right by his students, government be damned.
Meanwhile, the Grail sits back under Ryyudo Temple and pouts about being ignored....
The Dueling Floor of Ohtori Academy is actually a sort of Reality Marble, and Shirou Emiya ends up on the scene just in time to team up with Utena Tenjou for the climactic battle of RGU. I admit, I like this one mainly for the visual of watching Unlimited Blade Works take on the Million Swords head-on (point-on?).
Some Sliders grab Shirou (yeah, my head is stuck on FS/N lately), and take him on a tour of various fantasy universes. By the time he gets back to Fuyuki, UBW has added Saberhagen's Twelve Swords, lightsabers, StormBringer, Mjolnir (not a sword, but hey, Rho Aias), Captain America's Shield (natch), Wolverine's claws ("My body is made of blades," hah!), the Sword of Shanarra (badly underrated weapon, IMO), and... well, fill in your own favorites.
Yes, I have a Thing for seeing Gigglemesh get curbstomped, folded, spindled, and mutilated. Can you blame me?
"Unlimited Gundam Works." I know, totally ridiculous and unworkable. But it sounds cool. Then again, make it "Unlimited Mecha Works" and have Shirou cross paths with the Norse God of Mecha (not possible due to UF being a closed shop, but I can dream).
