Escapade, by Nai-bu
Koenma's decided that Lord Voldemort has finally crossed the line by recruiting demons to his Death Eaters. Now Magical Japan is getting involved. Without, of course, the knowledge, or permission, of England. Or their school.

Probably the most notable aspect of "Escapade" is that the YYH and HP characters don't get along at all and generally don't have any desire to. What's more, this mutual distrust is rooted in cultural, political, and spiritual differences. Plenty of the YYH boys being bad. Yay!

Thicker Than Water, by Youko Koenma
At Koenma's request, Kurama must get to know the great-grandson he'd neglected for years. And poor Harry, who never realized he had family other than the Dursleys, will be drawn into a world of demons and violence.

If you really, really want crossover characters related by blood, this is the way to go. Messy and complicated and a fly in everyone's soup. A long history of prejudice and hate between wizards and demons adds spice.

Keeping Quiet, by DemonUntilDeath
A new mission's come up but this time they didn't get a choice in the matter. Thrown into the war between wizards and humans, the gang must find a way to survive in a world where demons are slaves killed without question.

Ah, I love conflict. Super special extra credit with cherries on top for, if I'm not mistaken, creatively using the Meikai and plot of the movie to put a very different spin on a cliched crossover.

To finish the ff.net set, two more crossovers (okay, technically three... four):

That Gorram Fox, by Stories from AngelsFall
With his human life now centuries distant, Kurama finds a new home with the one crew in the 'verse that attracts as much trouble as Yuusuke.

Firefly crossover. That's right. And it works. It really does.

Damage Control, by Shinigami no Seishi
Hinageshi's mistake means Naruto gets another shot at life. Yuusuke attempts to help. The others come along for the ride.

More humorous in nature than Arigatomina's "The Hidden Continent" but, IMO, a good read still. Besides, given the author's The Crow fusion Running with the Crow, I have hopes that "Damage Control" will eventually take dramatic turns as well as comedic ones. Along with joisbishmyoga's Bloodsport and "The Hidden Continent," the best Naruto crossover I've read. (Notice how I unsubtly tried to drop as many links as I could.)
