Hot take: Harry Potter isn't as blatant as future isekai, like it straddles the line between "isekai" and more general "Chosen One narratives" But it's the world's most popular isekai https://twitter.com/AnaMardoll/status/1272191907414913024 …
Well, I think the Quidditch World Cup was an attempt to retcon Quidditch to make the game make more sense by changing "150 points" (15 goals) to be a *small* number of points and goals Hence it's a whole strategic thing for the Seeker to try to end the game at the right moment

It doesn't really work though Like trying to imagine 15 goals being a small enough number that it's often smaller than the margin of victory is really, really hard And it means that the Quidditch they play at Hogwarts isn't even Quidditch

Like clearly in Hogwarts Quidditch there is no dynamic of waiting until you know for sure catching the Snitch would win the game, it *always* wins the game It turns Hogwarts Quidditch into kind of a joke, like baseball for little kids where you win if you can just hit the ball
