FOREWORD

GATE: Thus the JSDF Fought There is one of those anime series that, despite the various faults, particularly in the story (which is very strongly pro-Japanese Nationalism and pro-JSDF, with a rather contemptuous portrayal of other countries), it's still very much an enjoyable one. I only recently came into it, but found it interesting enough to do, as of writing, two crossovers so far. The first, Parva Sub Ingenti, was also meant to add to the lacking selection of Potterverse crossovers with GATE, while GATE: Thus the Chosen One Fought There was my first Star Wars fanfic, crossover or not, and was inspired by the massively underrated similar crossover Universal Impossibility.

This is my second Potterverse crossover with the series, and while as with Parva Sub Ingenti, it features a post-Hogwarts Harry, this one features a Harry who goes through the Gate with the JSDF, rather than already being present in the Special Region, as with Parva Sub Ingenti and Split-Girl's In Which Harry Ditches Everyone! Welcome to Ancient Culture Chop-Suey.

Anyway, time for the usual disclaimers. Firstly, there will be spoilers for both Harry Potter and GATE.

Secondly, there will be heavy annotations, as is usual for my works. You have been warned.

Thirdly, this is an M-Rated work. There will be coarse language, violence, dark themes and sexual references. Again, you have been warned.

Finally, the following is a fan-written work. Harry Potter and GATE are the properties of their respective owners. Please support the official release. Otherwise, the Flame Dragon will eat you…
