Character relationships could also be a great aspect of such a fanfiction. Imagine Hermione befriending a student from Gakuen Alice who is really good at academics but has a unique Alice power. They could exchange knowledge about their respective worlds. Harry could also meet someone with a healing Alice and learn about a different kind of magic that could be useful in his fight against Voldemort.
A crossover might involve the settings. Hogwarts and Gakuen Alice's school could be merged in some way. Maybe the students from Gakuen Alice visit Hogwarts for a special exchange program. This would lead to all kinds of cultural clashes and new friendships. The Forbidden Forest in Hogwarts could be a place where the more adventurous students from Gakuen Alice explore, using their Alices to navigate the dangerous forest.
One interesting crossover could be the magic systems. In Gakuen Alice, the students have unique 'Alice' powers, and in Harry Potter, there are different types of magic. A crossover could explore how characters from both worlds interact with each other's magic. For example, a student with the 'Fire Alice' could team up with a Gryffindor student to fight a common enemy using their combined powers.
In some fanfiction, Harry could be the one who enters Wonderland. Maybe he's on a quest there, and he meets the Cheshire Cat. The Cheshire Cat could guide him, but in a very mysterious way, just like how Dumbledore often gives cryptic advice to Harry. Harry would have to adapt his magical skills learned at Hogwarts to the strange magic of Wonderland.
Another possibility is a story where the Cullen family's vampire lore intersects with the magic system in Harry Potter. Maybe there's a dark magic that affects vampires in a unique way, and Alice Cullen has to seek help from the wizarding world to deal with it. Harry and his friends, with their knowledge of magic, could offer solutions that the Cullens hadn't considered before.
In a fanfiction, the storylines could merge around the theme of education. Both Hogwarts and Gakuen Alice are schools that teach magic in different ways. A new teacher could be introduced who has knowledge of both magic systems. This teacher could start a special curriculum that combines the teachings of both schools. The students would then have to learn about each other's magic, and this could lead to all sorts of adventures and challenges as they try to master the new combined knowledge.
One interesting concept could be an OC who has a unique and powerful alice that no one has seen before. For example, an alice that can control time in a very specific way, like only being able to freeze time for inanimate objects. This would create a lot of unique situations in the Gakuen Alice setting.
One interesting storyline could be about a new student at Gakuen Alice who has a very unique and powerful alice that no one has seen before. This new student then has to navigate through the complex social structure of the school while also hiding the true extent of their power.
One creative crossover could be the wizards from Harry Potter using their magic to help the Demon Slayer Corps in some way. For example, they could use spells to detect demons more easily or to create barriers to protect the villages. Another idea is having the Demon Slayers learn some basic magic from the wizards. This would give them an edge in their fight against demons. Maybe a character like Tanjiro could learn a spell to heal faster, which would be very useful in his battles.
Well, in terms of a Dark Souls - Harry Potter fanfiction, the idea of the Dark Souls' estus flask could be reimagined in the wizarding world. It could be a special potion that only certain wizards can brew, and it has limited uses. Also, the character classes in Dark Souls, like the knight or the mage, could be used to categorize the students at Hogwarts in a different way. For instance, the knight - like students could be part of a new dueling club that focuses on more physical and defensive magic.
Well, a cool crossover might be the characters from Ben 10 being transported to the Naruto universe. Ben could team up with Naruto against common enemies. Ben could use his alien forms like Heatblast to deal with opponents who are strong against Naruto's ninjutsu. And Naruto could teach Ben about chakra control, which could in turn help Ben better control his alien powers when he transforms.
One interesting crossover could be Superman visiting Hogwarts. He might be amazed by the magic there. Maybe he tries to learn some spells, but his superpowers interfere. For example, when he tries to use a levitation charm, his super strength makes the object fly out of control.
One interesting crossover could be a scenario where Harry Potter and his friends encounter Janemba's chaotic powers in the wizarding world. Maybe Janemba's otherworldly abilities disrupt the magic there, and Harry has to use his knowledge of both magic and the strange new power he's facing to set things right. For example, he might combine spells with his natural courage to combat Janemba's minions.
