Probably autocorrect.

While you did deserve to fail, you should have at least gotten some points for honesty!

He had already fulfilled his destiny of defeating the brain spawn three seasons prior. Although judging by this scene he wasn’t in too much of a hurry to go back in time:

Dinkel-Quark-Brot

I don’t think I’ve seen a single isekai protag try to go back to Earth

Wizard of Oz, for one. I’m using a Japanese term because English doesn’t have a succinct one for that particular genre, but it apples to media anywhere.

Interestingly, when Fry is actually presented with a way to get home via a forward-traveling time machine and a universe that resets, he never brings up getting off at 1999 and it’s never mentioned in any way.

The Wizard of Oz, which Futurama is parodying, definitely counts! Yes, Dorothy wants to help the randos she meets, but the whole reason she’s going to the Emerald City in the first place is to try to get home to live in poverty with her dirt-farming, teetotaling aunt and uncle.

I live here, but I wasn’t born here, so I guess I’m spared! What do people born in Germany get?

It’s bad when the idea of dealing with a fantasy Dark Lord is more appealing than real life. At least it’s clear who the good and bad guys are.

I’ve thought about the isekai genre (ending up in another world) a lot lately and how a big part is usually the characters trying to find a way home. I wondered what percentage of people would actually want that nowadays. I suspect it’s considerably lower than it used to be.

“As for you, young lady, you want to go home, right?”

“No, not anymore. I want to stay here and become the new wicked witch.”

“Nonsense! Now click your big honking boots together three times and wish to go home to Kansas to live in poverty with your dirt-farming, teetotaling aunt and uncle!”

If only. We’ve been through exceptionally shitty periods of history before, again and again. I was hoping I wouldn’t have to live through one.

You can tell because it uses his old portrait rather than his current supervillain one.

It just keeps getting worse and worse.

For me it’s more like

This was under the assumption that it’s a 4 legged dragon. If the theoretical front appendages are arms, no pants up front. Although thinking about it again, with no junk to protect, front pants are kinda useless, so maybe don’t bother with them at all.

I’d say for any animal with multiple legs that are very close together, no pants at all would be best. At that point they’d be more of a hindrance than a help!

The second one. The boat is meant to represent a dragon, just without the appendages, and the second one is where its back legs would be. Could also have a pair for up front, I suppose.

They ruin my fantasy that most people aren’t hateful and cruel.
