    I’ve had this idea for ages about someone who goes back to like 1000 AD and tries to introduce germ theory, disinfecting surfaces and medical devices with alcohol, etc. The conflict comes from them having to overcome medieval institutions being resistant to change, starting with them naively writing a treatise on what is currently considered medical common sense but getting rebuked for apparently not knowing what they’re talking about.

    Naturally, the main character wears a cute version of a plague doctor outfit.

      Doctor Stone is vaguely similar, just really bad.

      Everyone on earth gets frozen for 10,000 years. Super-genius engineer is unfrozen and the only people left are a tribe living in a new stone age. He recreates modern society (All technology and social development works exactly like it’s described in highschool textbooks) while fighting the villain who is trying to prevent capitalism/industrialized warfare/imperialism (by destroying any technology and being really evil).
