Oboy. Whee.

I think I'll do the Haruna Fic first. Out of the three girls I picked, Haruna is the easiest one to write, and I've a few well developed ideas to play with. Expect for the Fantastic Four to play quite a role, and for Doctor Octopus to be Haruna's starter villain.
What is the point anymore?

The eyes: FFnet also has a Community function that allows for, well, a Community of fanfics by different authors, and I was planning to have a Community created for this project.

Title pending, for whatever y'all likes best.

Evangeline goes into the Dresden Files (any suggestions on which book?)
I dunno if you're still looking for inspiration here, but I think the best Dresden-enemy for Eva to pair with would be the White Court. Depending how far you want to go in the Dresden continuity, that would mean either Blood Rites, which has the advantage of pornstar sorceresses, or White Night, which has an actual internal war in the White Court itself.
No, wait, I'm an idiot. Small Favor's the perfect entry point for Eva:

1) Most of Evangeline's highest-level ice spells literally invoke a contract with the Queen of Ice (Mab)
2) So, Queen Mab calls Eva into Dresden's world when Chao "accidentally" blasts everyone into the void between universes, and delegates Eva as Dresden's protection against the Gruffs (who get a power boost because of the law of crossovers).
3) This also gives a perfect return point for Eva: once the Gruffs are called off Eva can be returned to her universe, leaving Harry with a new appreciation for ice spells (he's already employing them in combat in Changes, implying that he's practiced with them beforehand).

Even without handing out any powerboosts, Eldest and Nico are plot-device powerful, meaning Eva can't just steamroller them.

SF seems a good entry point. I'll consider it…

I mentioned Time and Space Adventures in homage to Tenchi Universe's multi-part episode that basically does what you describe to the Tenchi cast, though they don't retain any of their memories/skills.

Oh, and I think the OotS plot should probably start during the post-Azure City storyline. Fumika gets accidentally summoned during one of Vaarsuvius's many attempts to pierce the Cloister spell over Azure City. After V refuses to spend any time figuring out how to send her back, Fumika gets pulled into the party by Elan ("She's a random human appearing during downtime, right after we lost a major PC! She's obviously meant to fill in for Roy until Roy comes back!"), and finds out about ninjas when one attacks Elan. Admitedly it has holes in it, not least the fact that V has banned the Conjuration school, which includes Gate and any of the other Calling subschool that such a spell would be part of... maybe s/he was trying a funky Transmutation and screwed it up?

I'm pretty sure any ingress and egress to any of the worlds can be summed up as "shenanigans. Also, Chao" if necessary, so V's inability to summon doesn't need to be an obstacle.

I'm not sure I like that idea. This project idea is already dangerously close to becoming the bad kind of crack, being that it's based on a pretty massive contrivance from the very beginning. Any little thing you can do to make it look more like a sort of mass multiversal Call of Destiny instead would go a long way towards fixing the damage to the readers' suspension of disbelief.

I feel the need to point out that a 10-year old boy mage, being tasked to teach English to a group of schoolgirls in a country far from his native land in order to gain enough experience to be able to find his missing father, is a pretty massive contrivance by itself.

Heck, quite a few events in the story are contrivances. What are the odds that his father would actually imprison someone at that school well before said boy was even born?

I've heard it said that story trumps all. If you can tell the story well enough, then you keep the reader engaged even though it might be as silly as The Three Stooges and The Animaniacs meet Frankenstein, Wolfman Jack, and Dracula.

...

And welcome! Leave your sanity at the door.

Actually, how does teaching English to a group of Japanese schoolgirls equate to training for an epic quest to find Negi's father in the first place? Is it some kind of 'Mr. Miyagi'-style of test where a seemingly pointless and/or unrelated task has unexpectedly relevant results? Or is it a character building thing, to ensure that Negi has the wherewithal to keep himself from being molested by every other woman in his path? Or did the Meridiana head just need an excuse to drop Negi in Japan where all the Shonen stuff happens, assuming that Levels In Badass will just kind of happen to him?
