Lol, aren't I stuble in my intros? ;D
But to all seriousness, once we leave Twilight Town... WHAT'S OUR FLIGHT PLAN!?
Any suggestions? We already know that these worlds are destroyed (more will be added if need be):
Animarium/Turtle Cove (Power Rangers: Wild Force)
Reefside (Power Rangers Dino Thunder)
Area 11 (Japan) *Code Geass*
Amestris
Spira
Tokyo, Japan *Chibi Vampire*
Nippon *Okami*
Yokohama, Japan *Enchanter*
Planet Gaia (Final Fantasy VII)
Note: It's always best to NOT get rid of all the fun ones first! (Ex. Pride Lands, Alantica, you know, all the ones where our Heroes change forms? XD ) Save these for later, m'kay?

Hehe...well...let's try expanding into different areas. Like later on we go to Ichi's world since it hasn't been destroyed yet or to Magix (I still wanna see Strawberry kick Sky's ass!).
But let's try a fun little world first; maybe Kaleido Star? Circus worlds are pretty cool.

Nyah, this is the plotline for the entire Kaleido series:
Sora Naegino, a young Japanese girl with a great talent for acrobatics, comes to America in hopes of auditioning for the Kaleido Stage, a world famous circus which has mesmerized her since childhood. However, she runs into difficulties as soon as she arrives. She gets lost on her way to the Stage, is leered at by a mysterious stranger, and has her bag stolen by a nimble thief. Employing her acrobatic skills, Sora chases down the criminal.
A kind police officer gives her a ride to Kaleido Stage, but she discovers that she's missed her audition. Her idol, the star performer Layla Hamilton, advises her to return to Japan but a performer's unexpected injury provides Sora with a window of opportunity. She's given the rare chance to perform by the Stage's owner, Kalos (who turns out to be a mysterious man who had eyed her legs earlier). After a faltering effort, Sora is dismissed from Kaleido Stage and prepares to return to Japan, but then Kalos reconsiders, and lets Layla know that someday Sora's performance will be the main draw at the circus.
Sora spends the beginning of the season as an outcast, as the other performers believe that she had relations with the director to gain her position. Layla is particularly cold towards her, and sees her alternately as either an annoyance or a threat. With the help of her friends (stage manager Ken Robbins, the performers Mia Guillem and Anna Heart, and young Marion Begnini) as well as a lot of hard work and determination, Sora begins to earn the respect of those around her. Her incredible personality wins her a variety of friendships (including that of a baby seal!) as well as several increasingly major roles in the productions. Over time, she even manages to form a friendship with Layla.
However, things begin to go astray as Layla's father pressures her to leave and insiders plot to take over and shut down Kaleido Stage. Sora must rely on her winning personality, hard work and close friendships to keep the stage afloat.
New Wings
In the second season Sora returns to the stage after attempting the Legendary Great Maneuver with Layla. This leaves Layla's shoulder injured and unable to perform. The absence of her co-star, having retired to further a career in Broadway productions, prompts a slight decline of the Kaleido Stage. Because of this Kalos brings in a new recruit, Leon Oswald (a lofty trapeze artist). It seems at first that Leon is reminded very much of someone due to Sora's presence, and at times this causes him to either be really rude or really sweet to Sora.
Despite this, however, Leon does not accept Sora as worthy of being on the stage with him. This leads to the most talented of the new Kaleido Stage recruits (the Chinese May Wong, who is also an ex-figure skater) to question and challenge Sora's position as Leon's partner and star of the show.
Sora's first goal in the season is to attend the circus festival in Paris, but the competitors will do anything to attain the title of 'festival winner': betray, deceive, or even attack their opposers. The atmosphere and attitude this creates does not bode kindly to Sora's carefree, optimistic, ultra-idealistic outlook. It inturn causes her to withdraw from the competition in the middle of her act (or the Angel Act) with the redeemed Yuri Killian, leaving friends, family and, worst of all, Layla confused and otherwise disappointed with Sora.
Most of the season concentrates on Sora finding, questioning, and pursuing new dreams. After many trials and rejections, Sora aims to become a "True Kaleido Star" while creating a fun, conflict-free stage, the complete opposite of what she experiences at the festival in Paris.
The Amazing Princess Without a Smile
The first OVA looks at a new production in the works that follows the Kaleido Stage's success with Swan Lake, about a female princess that is unable to smile and a jester of hers that is hoping to bring her smile back. The idea for the production came to Mia from a painting that featured a character that looked very similar to Rosetta and a jester in the background that looked surprisingly like Fool (the stage spirit that can be seen only by very talented students).
Rosetta is assigned the lead role as the princess. Unfortunately, despite the likeliness of her being able to comprehend the role fully as she herself never carried a smile when she first came to Kaleido Stage, she has difficulties acting out the part and leaves the rehearsals mid-way frustrated. Will Rosetta be able to play the role right? What ties do Fool have with the painting of the princess and the jester?
Legend of Phoenix ~Layla Hamilton Monogatari~
Layla and Sora are about to launch different interpretations of the same show "Legend of Phoenix" on opposite coasts. Layla is preparing at the Broadway but is dissatisfied with her performance. She feels that she cannot perform the role properly if she is not truly reborn as a new Layla Hamilton. In a desperate attempt to be reborn, Layla runs off on a solo bicycle trip to upstate New York in hopes of rediscovering herself.
Meanwhile, Sora is also attempting to find her own Phoenix, but when she learns of Layla's disappearance she, Ken and May run off to New York to find the former Kaleido Star who at that instant was on a bike journey with no set destination.
Layla meets various strangers and reminisces memories of her childhood along the way as she thinks of how she can change herself. But while she tries to find a new self, she spends her entire time alone thinking about Sora until she comes to realize just how much Sora has been a muse to her. Once she realizes that, she is reborn. The nature of this revelation, though speculated in different ways by various fans, is up to interpretation. During the end credits, we are shown two different Phoenixes.
What we can do is have the baddies show up to do an experiment involving pure hearts and it leads them to Kaleido Stage. If we decide to go there, I'll think more. ^_^

Yeah, totally! So, we can go to the Kalideo Star world first, and then (maybe) Halloween Town. Ammy's gonna be in her human form there (the one I have on dA), Ichi in a "Hollow-esqe" form, Aisha... were-cat?, and I kinda see Haruhiko as some kinda terminator android? I dunno, I'll think of something for the guy...

Let's see...Karin's already a vampire but she's going to actually look like one and her situation will be reversed. Instead of the vampire in reverse she already is, she'll be a normal vampire xD (beware! She'll want blood!) Rikku I can see as some kind of cat girl. Neku...would be a reaper and Kurz....hmmm...Kurz I can see as a robot kind of like his arm slave built with all the guns.

As for my group...
Lirin would be a human girl since she's a demon
Kira would be a ptera-human hybrid because that was her zord and her dino power connects to it.
Lelouch would be a cat boy because he was forced to cosplay as one at school.
Bloom would be her dark fairy side during Season Two.
Renji would look like Zabimaru aka monkey.
And Shayla might be a gothic queen or something opposite her 'light' side. XD
