Reading that with interest. But I realize that you aren't understanding AU the same way I was meaning, sorry. When I asked if it would be a panfandom AU it was in reference to the setting and such. I'm not talking about a case in which Usagi Tsukino, rather than being Sailor Moon is Tuxedo Kamen, but for example cases like Kenshin Himura, from a series settled in the Meiji era, being apped. Or about humanoid characters like the Thundercats, or even characters from worlds that are clearly not Earth and such. How would those be handled?

As for non-human characters they would be turned in to normal humans. Characters that have ears and tails can keep them as cosplay props.

All characters would come in with basic understanding of how the job works, like you had just gone through job training.

I still don't think you understand what that anon meant.

Would the characters treat the setting as a jamjar? Would they be thrown into this world going "WTF AM I DOING HERE I WANT TO GO HOME" or do they have an established AU background in this world? Did they grow up there? Is the world they find themselves in the only world they know, or do they remember their canon home?

They would remember their canon home

First anon

I'm sorry for being a thick head but I'm still not clear on this issue. Taking once more the example of Kenshin Himura, his "canon home" is Kyoto, that he remembers that doesn't mean he would remember being a samurai assassin that lived in the Meiji era. If he does remember all of that I can't help to wonder how and why characters would even want to become idols rather than return to their worlds. Unless the most popular idol gets to go home, that is.

[sarah_sheep]

It's fine, I'm not very good at explaining things so this is kinda my fault.

In the end when you've gotten to be top idol in theory you would be able to go home. It would be that sort of thing driving the characters to aim to be the best.
