Line 10:
* In ''[[Digimon Adventure]]'', Taichi, having just defeated the villain of the arc, manages to return to his home world. Unfortunately, all his friends are still trapped in the Digital World. After receiving a garbled message indicating that they may be in trouble, Taichi finds a way to return to the Digital World in order to rescue them.
* In ''[[Teen Titans (
* In ''[[Dual]]! Parallel Trouble Adventure'', Kazuki is at one point blasted back to his world mid-battle. Upon realizing what happened, he asks the scientist who sent him there in the first place, Ken Sanada, to send him back.
* A very brief example occurs in [[Mahou Sensei Negima]] when {{spoiler|Zazi sends Negi's group back to the Old World (Earth) after they had been trapped in the Magical World for a few months under the condition that they stop interfering with Fate's plan and let the villains go about as they please. The whole group demands that they be returned to the Magical World so that they can set things right.}} The worst part: {{spoiler|because of Chao, they know that one possible future doesn't turn out very well, and Zazi seems convinced that their actions are going to lead to the future she came from.}}
Line 18:
* The first season of ''[[Magic Knight Rayearth]]''. The heroines have defeated the [[Big Bad]] Zagato, and freed Princess Emerald from her imprisonment so that she can return to being the Pillar of the World. The magical world saved, their mission fulfilled, the magic knights return to their own world. Good End. {{spoiler|Except that nothing about it was good. [[Well-Intentioned Extremist|Zagato was in love with the Princess, and kidnapped her to liberate her from her fate as a Pillar]]. The princess, embittered by her savior and lover's death, went [[Unstoppable Rage]] against the heroines, forcing them to slay her}}.
{{quote| '''Hikaru''': [[Tear Jerker|This can't end this way!!!]]}}
* ''[[Star Ocean the Second Story
* ''[[Life On Mars]]'' ends this way. {{spoiler|In the middle of a massive police sting, Sam finally wakes up from his coma - but he finds life in 2006 so numbing that he ends up [[Suicide Is Painless|throwing himself off the top of the police HQ]] just to he can get back to 1973.}}
* Averted in Inuyasha. When Kagome first returns to her own time, she briefly considers attempting to go back to feudal Japan to help search for the shards of the Shikon no Tama. In the end, however, she decides to just pretend it was all a dream and ignore it. {{spoiler|And then Inuyasha shows up and drags her back to the past anyway.}}
** Played straight in one of the movies. Inuyasha throws Kagome down the well to return her to the present, then blocks the well with a boulder so that she can't get back. She immediately tries to get back, but since the well is blocked in the past, it doesn't work. {{spoiler|Once things get so bad in the past that they start to affect the present, Kagome destroys the boulder with a magic arrow, enabling her to travel back and forth once again.}}
* About halfway through [[Neil Gaiman|Neverwhere]], the hero gets back 'home', to upper London. He chooses to return to the adventure.
* Right at the end of [[Higurashi no Naku Koro
* At the end of [[Red vs. Blue|Red Vs Blue S9]], {{spoiler|Epsilon-Church says this after being pulled out of the Epsilon unit. He had figured out the secret that let him escape the cycle, but then was dragged into the fight again.}}
** To this troper, this is also a terribly sad moment: {{spoiler|Church is terribly abused by Tex, especially in her flailing failure to accomplish anything, and only achieves inner peace when he gets rid of her, by forgetting her.}}
