* CrossOver/VisualNovels


Added DiffLines:


[[folder:Visual Novels]]
* In ''VisualNovel/MajiDeWatashiNiKoiShinasai'', members of the [[VisualNovel/TheyAreMyNobleMasters Kuonji household]] shows up in several places, as they live in the neighbouring area. In one of the routes they even spend the night in that mansion. Naturally, one of them mentions that Yukie has a [[ActorAllusion nice voice]].
* Despite being an internally consistent [[TheMultiverse multiverse]], the {{Franchise/Nasuverse}} only has crossovers in incredibly round-about ways. Part of the problem is, well, WordOfGod stated that some of the characters simply ''cannot'' exist in the same universe for {{Canon}} reasons.
** Zelretch was seen in the Prologue to ''VisualNovel/{{Tsukihime}}'' with a young Arcueid. He also appears for one scene in the "Heaven's Feel" route to ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight'', walking in from AnotherDimension to meet Rin.
** Aoko Aozaki spends time in the beginning of ''VisualNovel/{{Tsukihime}}'' with a young Shiki Tohno, appears later in ''VideoGame/MeltyBlood'', and is the main character of ''VisualNovel/MahoutsukaiNoYoru''. Her sister, Tohko Aozaki, is the OlderAndWiser mentor figure of the (arguably) ''Tsukihime''-prototype, ''LightNovel/KaraNoKyoukai'', plays a major role in Mahoyo, and is mentioned in an ending of ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight''. Despite each of them knowing a different Shiki (each possessing the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception) [[WordOfGod it's explicitly stated]] that Tohko and Arcueid cannot exist in the same universe (and most likely, Shiki Ryougi and Shiki Tohno can't, either).
** Shirou's employer at his part-time job in ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight'' (who appears ''once'' in an easily-missed scene) shares a name with a drug dealer in ''LightNovel/KaraNoKyoukai''.
** Cornelius Alba of ''LightNovel/KaraNoKyoukai'' makes a cameo appearance in the ''LightNovel/FateZero'' anime adaptation, though he doesn't appear in the original light novels.
** Sion's magic gun in ''VideoGame/MeltyBlood'' is a replica of Godo's Black Barrel in ''Literature/AngelNotes'', which Ciel is [[WordOfGod reportedly]] carrying around in ''VisualNovel/{{Tsukihime}}''.

* CrossOver/{{Radio}}


Added DiffLines:

[[folder:Radio]]
* Batman and Robin made frequent appearances on ''Radio/TheAdventuresOfSuperman''.
* ''Radio/TheArchers'' had a crossover with Gardener's Question Time for Easter 2011, where the real-life panel, chaired by the real-life Eric Robson answered questions from the population of Ambridge.
* On the April 1, 2013, broadcast of "FamilyLife Today", John Fuller and Jim Daly, from "Focus on the Family", crossed over.
* Two episodes of ''Radio/TheGoonShow'' featured guest appearances by Jack Train as Colonel Chinstrap from ''[=ITMA=]'', a popular comedy show from the previous decade. There was also a crossover with the comedy "[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Educating_Archie Educating Archie]]", called "Archie in Goonland".
* An arguable one, similar to the UsefulNotes/ComicRelief PanelGame crossovers above, the New Year 2010 episode of Creator/TheBBC Radio 4 comedy panel game ''Radio/TheUnbelievableTruth'' featured Creator/StephenFry, Alan Davies, regular ''Series/{{QI}}'' panelist Rob Brydon and ''Series/{{QI}}'' producer John Lloyd. The format of the game was unchanged, but the "obvious answer" klaxon was added. Much to the satisfaction of the other players (and host David Mitchell), Stephen set it off twice.

* CrossOver/{{Mythology}}



[[folder:Mythology]]
* Due to the popularity of Arthurian legends, many unrelated Welsh and Breton folk tales later had some Arthurian elements and trappings added, such as with Tristan and Iseult.
* OlderThanFeudalism: The Myth/{{Classical|Mythology}} tale of Jason and the Argonauts brought together many mythological heroes in a sort of Justice League Ancient Greece. "Hero" in Myth/ClassicalMythology was an awfully vague term (as [[ComicBook/TheCartoonHistoryOfTheUniverse Larry Gonick]] put it, heroes aren't necessarily ''heroic'', just excessive), and since the mission was to ''steal'' an item (the Golden Fleece) "Justice League" isn't a terribly good name for them....
* Maid Marian, the [[{{Arcadia}} shepherdess]], featured in many pastoral plays popular at May festivities. Then there was a fad for ''Myth/RobinHood'' plays. Then someone put the two characters together. It worked so well that Maid Marian is best known as a ''Robin Hood'' character, even though her independent existence predates him.

* Franchise/{{LEGO}} has many licensed sets of Franchise/StarWars, Franchise/HarryPotter, superheroes, etc. Easy crossover potentials, as demonstrated with ''WesternAnimation/TheLEGOMovie''.

For example, ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'' has a handful of episodes where the characters head off at the end, only to turn up in ''Series/{{Angel}}'' straight after. This also works the other way, with a magic amulet in ''Series/{{Angel}}'' turning out to be vitally important for the last-ever episode of ''Buffy''. (This also highlights one of the few dangers of crossovers; if you or a fan watched only ''Buffy the Vampire Slayer'', but not ''Series/{{Angel}}'', this particular amulet appeared to [[DeusExMachina come totally out of nowhere to save the day]]....) Sometimes this is done to [[PoorlyDisguisedPilot provide the lead-in for a spin-off show]], as happened with both of the ''Series/{{CSI}}'' spin-offs.
