i posted this to reddit before, where, in addition to excellent discourse on the topic, commenters gave me these examples from actual anime:

the inumimi from tokyo mew mew

a similar vibe with an even more surprising species from super pig

[pterrorgrine]

some more people who have posted about this same basic idea:

this post from @momolady

this post from @barbaricjester

this post from @llilobnuy

this post from @crypt1dglyph5

to all of you: so true bestie

this post is now perhaps the most authoritative set of links about the idea of mashing up a werewolf transformation sequence and a magical girl transformation sequence anywhere on the internet

Of course, when I think of "The world you grew up in no longer exists" it's things like "a generally held opinion that racism is bad" or "a generally held opinion that science is a more reliable source of information about the world than random assholes with YouTube channels" or "a generally held opinion that we should take steps to ensure that Earth remains habitable" or "a widespread feeling that the future might be good, rather than a headlong rush into a nightmarish, Hobbesian war of all against all", but hey, yeah, your nostalgic photographs of old Seven-Elevens or whatever are things too.

[becquerel]

there didnt used to be a bridge until one kept crying about being lonely like Maybe you should talk to the boyfriend i put in this saw trap with you. 🙄. but fine. theres a bridge now.

[becquerel]

as soon as the one who kept crying about being lonely got off of his oil rig he immediately fell in love with a mii on the outside. someone is losing bridge privileges tonight .

[becquerel]
