Sauce please.
The anime adaptation is legendary, it's Maria x Holic, also a similar premise for Kobayashi ga Kawai Sugite Tsurai! (look for the official translation).
Talking about trope. I read some 'untrope' kinda thing? Like flipping the usual romance trope. Such as one bed turn to too many bed, he only love you turn to he only hate you, etc.
Phrase it better if you want me to understand it, but there are many twists in romcoms nowadays.

The answer is always "magical twin siblings".
You mentioning twin giving me an idea

A twin separated by world. Two twin are supposed to born in two parallel world, but the two twin lost its pair. Since they were child that left, the two girl aware of each other existence. The girl able to communicate to each other telepathically. One girl is born in the sci-fi setting but not too far in the future, and one born in magical fantasy world.

story about each girl asking each other advice, like love life, their worry, and more (push the love more). It's kinda like Kimi no Nawa where they both aware each other existence but never actually met, but instead of distance they separated by universe.

At the climax the twin combine the power of both world, the science and magic to open the portal and finally meet each other.

Is it twin twin, or just twin?

Talking about twins, I have an idea too. The setting is fantasy medieval, about the twin who was born in the dark castle when the storm happened. I just have the image of a horror castle and a myth about twins bringing calamity, but I don't remember the rest of the setting. I'm sure I'm not digging it too deep.

What I don't understand is, are they a couple of twins, and did their sibling get switched or separated one one?

what i meant is two version of sibling but both only one remain and lost its pair. On the scifi universe the girl A of the twin survive, and on the fantasy universe the girl B of the twin survive

Now I know what you mean. Sorry, I'm kinda late for this kind of thinking, is not my forte.

Anw. I just read a fun phrase that I wanna add somewhere. something like, 'if you really love your god, let me send you to him' or 'this shit is so ass'. I really like those sarcastic remarks.

The latter is very modern. Could see some quirky marvel character say that or a Netflix animation.

On that note modern swearing in fantasy/historical fiction is something that really annoys me. Everyone just going "fuck, shit, shit fuck and fuck fuck shit". There is a point why they are called "swears" and "curses", there is power in them. Sure, sometimes it's just a translation issue and especially if it's an official one, you know that it's just laziness from the translation team rather than the original author writing the characters so.

Would be fun to read a series about transmigrators, who constantly get in trouble due to their modern behaviour. Would take some comedy talent to make it work and research into historical taboos and adapting them into a fantasy world.

that reminds me of the Black Night comedy movie starring Martin Lawrence
The girl able to communicate to each other telepathically
And this "twins" talk reminds me of an even older movie whose title I can't remember.
Only there is a scene where the twins are examined in separate rooms. One of them was hit on the knee to test the knee reflex, but it was the other twin in another room who performed the reflex and kicked the doctor in the ball.
I only remember that bit.
