    It happens to me a lot of time, specifically conversation scenes of casual talks without direct mentions of any plot-relevant information, such as friendly gossip between characters.

    I don't know how many times I had said this before, but still I will say this once again. The fictional world of your story is merely inspired by our Real-Life, but it is not exactly our Real-Life. So there exist no reason to use any trademarked terminologies that are only known by Real-Life...

    Just a question. Why an emotional rivalry between the two characters is needed? Why the two strangers must meet each other before the actual competition? Will it produce a big story plot problem if they never met before, only met each other the first time on the stage? Since you said it, they...

    There is always another method in making a seemingly long battle short, which is by changing the very fundamental of the winning condition.

    For me, I planned my story basically all the way at least up to half of the entire work. But for this, it is only the basic draft outline, or the general idea what I had planned to write in the future. It is alterable anytime during the process. I do this because it will then give me an idea...

    Neither of the two. First thing first, why the crossover must be in the format of "character of canon A suddenly transfer to universe of canon B"? Can't it be the setting of canon A adapt to or even exist in the universe of canon B, where then it doesn't have the problem of implausibility of...
