And now for something that's NOT a computer programming pun...
04-16-2015, 05:45 PM
So, after watching the "Fast to the Future" fan trailer, my mind went Bad Places...
"Aright listen up! The guys we're after are professional runners. They like time banditry and are guaranteed to go down the timey-wimiest, wibbly-wobbliest possible way so make sure you've got your thunderwear on. We find 'em, we take 'em as a team, and we bring 'em back. And above all else we don't ever, ever let them get into time machines."
"Dom... we don't have enough room to get up to 88."
"That's what terminal velocity is for."
(obviously, the Flight mods are on the fritz, or haven't been installed yet. Also, "Oohhhhhh SHHIIIIIIIIII---")
"What, we working for The Doctor now?"
(and now, a pause while considering The Doc as played by The Rock. Yeah, I'd give that a shot)

I'm now imagining Matt Smith going "Do you KNOW, what the DOC, is COOKIN?"
And laughing my face off at the idea.

We've switched Tomoyo Daidouji (Cardcaptor Sakura) anf Tomoyo Sakagawa (CLANNAD). Let's see what happens in both continuities!

We've switched Rei Hino for Ray Vecchio. Let's see which city gets blown up first, Chicago or Tokyo.

Faced with the menace of Koro-sensei, the Earth's governments develop a weapon that can blast a limited volume out of this dimension entirely! Sure it's a little drastic but when you're faced with imminent world destruction, sometimes you need drastic. The weapon is deployed on the way back from Class 3-E's summer vacation since it's easier to cover things up if all that vanishes is one small boat in the middle of the ocean. The cover story practically writes itself.
Sure, it's a bit rough on the entire class of middle-schoolers on the boat but they'd die anyway if the Earth is destroyed and the School Chairman assures the governments that no one important is being lost and he's happy to donate the school's boat to the cause of getting rid of Class 3-E... of Koro-sensei.
All very well for that world, but where to Class 3-E wind up?
Lots of possibilities for a crossover, but what about... Naruto?
Sure, the kids aren't going to be chakra-users so they aren't going to be any match for Narutoverse ninja in combat, but they aren't being trained for combat. (and if combat is required, Karasuma is pretty good, not to mention Kuro-sensei is at least S-rank). They could very easily become a minor faction in their own right. Plus Kuro-sensei would probably delight in dressing as a Kage.

There's also another story possibility.
Replace Koro-sensei with Piccolo from DBZ.
Evidently inhuman? Check
Practically invincible? Check
Destroyed the Moon? Check
Teacher? Check (well, taught Gohan).

Note that, unless we're taking small liberties with AssClass canon, they'll know about the universe they're in now. At one point, Koro-sensei makes Terasaka the butt of a Naruto joke, and Fuwa's a big Shonen Jump fan. (Yes, this is totally shameless on Jump's part.) And Naruto is one of the most popular manga in Japan, so a number of other students are probably going to have some level of knowledge or another.

No, but I just had an idea for a great new series... no, a new thing for the Film Room at cons: Mythbuster Science Theatre 3000. Basically, all the Mythbusters blooper reels mashed into one supercut, with audience involvement for snarky comments. Bonus points for keeping track of who's taken more wounds, Tori or Adam.

GURPS is pretty much made to enable crossovers, and Munchkin would fit right into the Narutoverse, if perhaps set on whatever the other continent was from the movie with the Europan-style knights who used "gelel" rather than "chakra." Not seeing any issues there, unless you count a Pyramid subscription. I hear it's big in Wind Country.

Around here there used to be an ISO-Standard Random Campaign Generator.
Walk down the GURPS aisle at the FLGS.
Close your eyes.
Pick three books.
I tried this once. Ended up with Feudal Japan, Prime Directive, and Black Ops. "Right. Section 31, Temporal Division."

Despite Jim Kirk's cavalier attitude about the Temporal Prime Directive, he's only Number Two on the Temporal Division's Most Wanted. The top spot is reserved for an irritating alien in a blue box....

On his first ride on the Hogwarts Express, Draco Malfoy encounters a thin pale red-head and throws the usual insults about Weasleys, poverty, etc.
"Actually I'm Tarvek Sturmvoraus but I'll be sure to share your family's pretensions with the rest of my family."
Brushing aside the pale-faced Malfoy, now recognising the name of an ancient and royal House from central Europe, Tarvek goes on to befriend two (apparently) muggleborn students: Gilgamesh Holzfäller, ward of the mysterious but puissant german wizard, Baron Wulfenbach, and Agatha Clay...
Edit: EDITED!

We've just swapped Pinkie the Lab Rat with Pinkie Pie. Oddly enough, nothing much changes, at the macro level....
Bonus non-crossover:
This fall, HBO presents:
GAME OF PHONES
"Deregulation is coming"
Game of Phonies, where antropomorphic bug ponies try to pass themselves off as humans and achieve control of a vaguely 19th century society with the help of magical phones!

Ukyou Kuonji, Osaka Naru, Mitsune Konno, Ayumu Kasuga, Shizuru Fujino, Hayate Yagami and a couple dozen other girls with similar manners of speaking suddenly find themselves representing Japanese battleships from World War II, under the command of an unsuspecting, innocent admiral in...
