#Acnologia would wreck shit and leave

Would it be better or worse if these things were all happening at once?

(Gajeel and Irene are Wendy's parents, Erik is the uncle that gives questionable advice (All three not present, only their influence exists), and the other six all have to babysit Wendy together.)

If you did a crossover between KHR and Fairy Tail, what characters would you involve in the crossover and which way would it go (Fairy Tail in KHR-Verse or KHR in Fairy Tail-verse)? What possibly pairing would emerge and most importants what magic would you impart upon the KHR characters?

Hmmm…. well the trend is more about putting the KHR people in FT, which essentially tends to make the Vongola another guild or have the KHR people as part of FT.

Which is kinda stale. Especially since most of them don’t diverge from FT-plotline, even if they involve an extra character. Partly because FT fails to elaborate on most of their characters characters; Juvia got reduced to Grey’s psycho stalker and not a woman in charge of her own happiness. Basically everything past the seven year time skip is not as good as it could have been.

Especially towards the end! You can see how they story line went a lot more wronky towards the end. Oda’s twenty-month pregnancy with Ace stretched belief but Erza’s dragon mom carried Erza for centuries! Never mind how bullshit all those hyped Spriggan 12 were and how things like coherency stopped mattering!

Zeref’s death was good writing; Curse of Contradictions and all that. Was poetic and had a sense of closure. We didn’t need the ‘look, the reincarnations that look and behave pretty much the same have met and its tru wuv!’ shit at the end.

Acnologia’s defeat/death was nothing but asspull and dues ex machina in a plot device tossed in last minute. Plus his character was stupidly, stupidly flat. Like during the Tenrou Arc when he showed up -due to Zeref supposedly- after Gildarts had managed to get away alive I was hoping for backstory and complex motivations. Guess what got shafted in favor of megalomania and destroy everything?

Basically while the seven year time skip helped to resolve Lucy’s feelings to her father in her narration… whatever happened to the side-characters like Lyon? Grey comes back and is able to match the guy who’s had seven-years to train and practice magic in? Basically what happened in those seven years is that outside the FT-guild, no one grew in skill or prowess unless needed for plot. Jura, the O-something Seis… about the only except is maybe Romeo but he got older and is hinted at being Wendy’s eventual romance in the shonen ‘first love is true love’ way and I’ll consider that plot.

Yeah, FT started going off the rails then with bullshit after the ordeal at Tenrou Island. Never mind the lack of world-building, inconsistent details and lack of government; sure you have royalty, nobility and the magic council that gets destroyed like three times. Which the Rune Knights obey and presumably police the mage population. Like we know there are laws but it seems like they’re more suggestions? See the Duke guy in the early chapters, all but kidnapping the author for years?

I’m also still kinda pissed that the few times they’ve ventured out of Fiore, they never were able to explore other lands -Sun Village, those islands near Alveraz that got miniturized- unless it was part of a movie in which Magnolia gets destroyed for the Nth time for some reason. So you really can’t base a character anyway but Fiore. Because we Know Nothing.

Basically if you’re going to do something original in FT you’re going to have to do Massive Amounts of WorldBuilding because you can’t just superimpose our history and all our world details on it. Or take the easy way out, focus on characters and make it a romance or something.

Now then, put an FT character in KHR and you’re going to have uh, problems. Because most of the FT characters run wild and are used to a weak government and getting light penalties for their crimes. Unless you belong to a Dark Guild, in which case they leave you to rot in jail until you break out.

So you’d want to put in someone smart and can blend. As great as Grey is undercover -see Avatar Arc- the stripping would get him arrested. Because other characters like Natsu and Erza… they’d make a splash, cause a wreck and then get quietly assassinated by poison. Natsu might survive the poison due to shonen powerups and actually being a demon but that’s not a sure bet.

Honestly, for characters of FT that wouldn’t get targeted/killed inside a week by being stupidly headstrong or attracting the wrong sort of attention: Rouge, Gajeel, Cobra, Levy, Cana, Freed, Evergreen, Lyon, Minerva…

People that have a brain and no habit of being a public nuisance. Sure how they fight would gain notice but these characters are smart enough to know that fighting isn’t going to solve everything and to know when things are over their heads and need to go to ground and how.

Because a terrible author bends the rules of reality so their characters can do the impossible. A great author makes their character bend/change the rules to achieve the impossible.

Plus I’m probably PMS-ing and so want to make characters hurt and suffer so I’d drop them into the Estraneo labs. Because that’s a solid first impression of be cautious and consequence that means you need to keep your wits because Look At What Has Happened Here. With the creeping realization of ‘of fuck, magic is a myth here’ and ‘any people that can use a form of it belong to Dark Guilds.’ Alongside the ever popular, ‘We’re not longer in Magnolia, how do we get home?’

But ASSUMING Izzy would right typical ‘reincarnates or oops KHR character into FT and learns magic’ most of them would get fire magic as a primary/basic sort of thing. But they’d all be Caster-type instead of Holder-type.

Tsuna would probably pursue Fire and some sort of Flight magic, because he’d like that. Gokudera would learn explosion magic because that’s Gokudera. Yamamoto would diversify by learning some water magic, sword magic and probably a bit of Requip and illusion. Ryohei would learn some sort of strength magic, possibly even Titan because for all that Ryohei’s Sun Flames can heal you have to know what you’re doing to heal properly. Lambo of course gets to get electricity which he learns to shape and use for defense. Mukuro’s going to specialize in illusion and also go grab-bag. Kyoya would go for self-enhancement magic and pick up telepathy if only to relay orders to his minions because it’s not Kyoya if he doesn’t pick up minions.

The Varia and others would pretty much follow the same them in that it suits their character and inclinations and if smart/practical enough, covers for their own weaknesses. Like I could see the Varia learning various types of runes for practical reasons like singling their target and telepathy so they can communicate and coordinate.

Because as Jellal and others prove, it’s possible to use and learn other types of magic in battle.

But Izzy really wants to see Enma, reincarnated as the son of Gildarts and one of his one-night stands and has Crash and Gravity Magic. Oh and he tells Gildarts that as soon as he sees him. Which makes him Cana’s younger half-brother, by at least six or so years so Enma’s pretty much of age with the main-cast ie Lucy, if a little younger. But based on experience fighting from a past life and training in this one… yeah, he’s probably S-class and made it younger than Erza did. Which is also a point of conflict with his half-sister, he didn’t know he had. Although I suspect she told him after her third or fourth failed attempt at becoming S-class. By this point however, Gildarts has been long gone since FT has three young S-class mages and Enma makes number four; Mystogan, whenever he joins would make number five.

Pairing? Enma probably settling down after dating a few others casually with hmm… not Lucy for all that there might be a crush, Erza is practically sister-territory after remember Adel, Mira is cute but I don’t think they’d have much chemistry, Wendy is twelve/thirteen-ish at the end of FT… and for all  hate how ham-fisted the Gajeel/Levy pairing is in the manga, I’ve seen enough fan comics to adore it for.

Oh and I’d like to have him avoid getting stuck on Tenrou for seven years, so can someone say Fourth Master Enma? Because I can. And it would be original.
