So a discussion came up, and I honestly couldn't think of much that would be a good fit for To Love Ru using it as the base world. Basically series that would fit in the To Love Ru universe and not break established rules....to much.
Any ideas?
To Love Ru would be better off as a secondary world then a base world. It's simplistic enough that you can slot it in with a decent amount of other series but at the same time it's too simple.
In your DxD multicross fic, DxD's huge mythological world gave your multi-cross actually leg work to stand in since you can justify multiple series coming together with DxD's lore. To Love Ru's world is too bare bones for that, I find it more interesting to see how it would fit into other universes like in Ben 10, how would Vilgax vs Deviluke affect the universe?
Eden Zero immediately comes to my mind as a potential crossover. Deviluke are one of the many factions that can reasonably exist in those settings as other humanoid aliens and are in a territory war with other factions. Then Jord SI comes swooping in and swooning Lala off her feet. But you would have to nerf Gid so that the other big bads can actually live long enough for your SI to fight them.
Gid is a giant problem in itself. He's like the Gojo of the To Love Ru world but his power isn't a problem since it's a slice of life anime. If your going to have action and your SI beating up people then your going to have to introduce a reason to why Gid doesn't just descend and fucking murk everybody. Like have his planet exploding power be a double edge sword and he can only pull it off once per 6 months. Or there are peace treaties in place that stop Gid from interfering.
Any slice of life romcom for one can fit in, kinda like what you did with DxD & Uzaki-chan. Maybe you can crossover Bochi and have Bochi and To love ru girls form a band?
Potential base worlds off the top of my head:
- Eden Zero
- Ben 10
- World Trigger
All 3 series above feature sci-fi tech, and waifu aliens so To Love Ru's inclusion wouldn't break the setting too hard.
Eden Zero: SI is on future Earth and wants money to travel into space to explore and shit. Lala crashlands and builds a ship for him and they go on adventurers. Going there and back from other planets to Earth, collecting waifus during each trip.
Ben 10: SI is a newbie plumber posted in Japan and is shocked to see Lala crash land into his bath tub. Plumber HQ sends him a mission to guard Lala from alien threats and story rolls on from there. Add in some political background like Deviluke and Plumbers have back door deals, Plumbers and Azmuth supported Deviluke empire because compared to every other empire, they're the most peaceful out of all of them thanks to Sephie's efforts. You can give SI Skurd as a power up, have Skurd realize that th multiple alien suitors coming after SIs lif means he gets plenty of DNA to absorb so he sticks by SI.
World Trigger: SI is a B-rank Border Patrol agent wanting to create his own squad to fight off the Neighbors. Lala ENTERS. It's revealed that Devilukes are one of the many Neighborhoods that exist in the verse and they are in a harsh war against Aftokrator. Gin can't one shot the villains because Black Triggers act as a war deterrent and they don't want to risk Aftokrator spawning an Anti-Deviluke Black Trigger. SI teams up with Lala to form their own team and gets a few more girls along the way to climb up the rank wars.
