What's with shounens and constant rehash of this trio?

>ha ha, a funny loser hard worker MC, more often that not woth a demon inside
>a girl that is in many ways similar to him, but also headstrong and rude, to show girl power!!
>a black haired stoic, somewhat arrogant cool tough guy that cringes from the two of them
Did Naruto's influence cause some kind of brain damage in the next generation?

The fact that in so many of these the Sasuke-type loves and gives up his goals for his friends makes me think that Sasuke traumatized these authors in teenage years so much that they all decided to write Sasuke as "nice" that he himself now feels like a trope breaker with his Griffith ways rather than someone who created it in the first place

rehashing is quintessentially shonen
Talking just about Naruto: you get the demon inside like Devilman and Ushio and Tora, the Vegeta rivalry, Sasuke looks like old anime Sasuke etc

Even the fucking Attack on Titan
>Black haired edgy radical
>Girl whose entire character is being obsessed with him
>Blond talk no Jutsuer who has homoerotic relationship with the radical
Seriously, what the fuck?

>that he himself now
*so he himself

Sasuke being based on two female princesses and an old anime about Sasuke Sarutobi who looks like a girl never stops being hilarious.
Kishi really could've saved his woman-hating reputation by making him female

>Did Naruto's influence cause some kind of brain damage in the next generation?
Yes

>did one of those highest selling and most popular series if all time influence the genre it came from
Yes. Are you fucking retarded? What a stupid question.

There is a different between mere influence and obsessive archetype copypaste

congratulations you've just discovered that japanese are no different from any other asians aside from their language
asians can only mindlessly copy paste and rehash everything

Don't forget their cool quirky mentor.

Isn't the rival in this not even in the same squad?

Ah yes, the cool attractive teacher that 20 something girls that consider themselves "mature" despite watching shounen anime in their age can simp for because they don't want to be seen badly thirsting over teenage boys and instead ask themselves to go for "men" cause "Well I'm Not Like Other Girls, I'm an Adult!"

Doesn't really matter, he's still shilled as important.
Despite barely being a character, but hey, "he's nice and not like Sasuke, he's a friendly rival, SUBVERSION AND DECONSTRUCTION!!!!" is enough for the majority of the viewers

It's call the Freudian Trio tropes, basically a group of characters that compliment each other while provide difference viewpoint. This is a very old story telling tropes since naturally, you want somekind of dynamic for the characters to play-off each other. Usually the trio represented the idea of the Id, Superego and ego. Id is emotional and instinctive, Superego is often cold and logical while the Ego is a compromise of both. Star Trek is a good example of this concept: Spock is the Superego, McCoy is the Id and Kirk is the Ego.

Kill yourself Narutard

dumb incel

Ironically sasuke (pre-shippuden fight) is the best character out of all of these types that were inspired by him. I say pre-shippuden because Itachi's reveal entirely ruined sasuke as a character.

Pre shippuden*

Naruto is a poor copy of Dragon Ball and Ninku, it has no right to complain.

This trio is as old as time. It's basically the classic double act of "the straight man" and "the funny man" with the girl who usually serves as the voice of wisdom between the two.

I'd say Hebi Sasuke was still a great gray third party. Probably not as compelling as beginning Sasuke, but still uniquely independent compared to other characters.
But the Itachi had to ruin it for the second time. How does he fucking do it?
