    So guys, I've been reading a through different stories like A Dragon of the North and Miracle of Zero.

    Without going into the specifics of those stories (though I'm sure you're all familiar with ADOTN), the basic premise is that you introduce either concepts or characters into another setting that just gives them an enormous advantage. The fights involved are practically a foregone conclusion.

    I'm after stories of any fandom with the same sort of premise, but with additional focus on how other characters react to the main character. Worm fanfics with their PHO Interludes have sort of scratched that itch for me, but I'm more looking at things like ADOTN's POV interludes.

    Any sort of fandom would be good.

    Thanks in advance.

    I just finished reading A Village Hidden in Hope, a Naruto/Star Wars crossover where Naruto gets transported to where Anakin grows up. I enjoyed it a lot despite knowing nothing about the Star Wars universe.

    Naruto is the OP one here so far - you'll see why as the story progresses.

    /sidenote: Would you recommend it for someone who hasn't followed Naruto?

    I don't think so. I don't think it explains the nature of chakra or about Naruto's backstory.

    I don't know if it's quite what you're after, but Darth Marrs's Blue Sun Down is in the Library. It's about as asymmetrical a crossover (Star Wars/Firefly) as you'll find.

    A Thin Veneer is a pretty solid Star Trek Babylon 5 crossover. It starts curbstompy then normalizes but I enjoyed it.
