Naruto has copied up to 3 series,
Ninku:
1.Rasengan=Kuatsuken
Kuatsuken in a sphere of air pressure in the users palm . The technique can also be adapted to propel the user to great distances.
2. Jinchūriki=12 Ninku corps
In Ninku The names of the corps were taken from the twelve Chinese zodiac animals and each captain of the corps was called the zodiac animal Ninku master . Their powers are derived from nature and a specific dragon to their own e element. Each corp has a specialty. for ex.
wind, metal, plant, etc..just like the jinchiriki
just like jinchuriki the people in corps got powers based off their animals
ULTRAMAN TIGA
1.Moons eye project=Ultramna Tiga ep. 45
both plans would cause the world to go into a forcively peaceful state
2.the ten tails god tree=Gijera
Gijera is like the original idea of the ten tail tree...in ultraman Gijera was a plant that would cause the world to go in a peaceful state.
HUNTERxHUNTER
1.Sausake=Kurapika
-same backstory(clan memebers killed)
-both have powerful red eye
2. Kurapika & Sauske
-both become ninja/hunter due to a reason because of their clans massacre
3. Hisoka=Orochimaru
4. Massacre of the Kurta Clan=Uchiha clan Massacre
5. Bisky=Tsunade
-transforms there bodies to look younger
-are both strong
6. Naruto and Gon are main characters, they each have a friend who later becomes a doctor
7. Gons best friend/maybe rival uses electricity.......and sausake use electricity
naruto is known for rasengan whic is copied, sharingan is based off the kurta clans eyes.....(!!SPOILER ALERT )the kurta clans eyes caused kurapika to have all nen types, so kishi probably said "OK, sharingan users CAN COPY ALL JUTSU TYPES".....and he copied ultraman tigas ending.
this should be removed from top manga lists and top anime lists......again this is just a ninja fanfic of HxH
holy fuck you are so retarded.
i dont like naruto but you are going way too far
>are both strong
fuck i guess there isn't a single manga that is original
>hisoka=orochimaru
??????
Anime itself is a copy of Disney animations. Japan never created anything original, that's their ninja way.

everything is a ripoff of everything
boku no hero pretty much ripped off naruto
>>156253821
We all know that Naruto is a HxH rip-off, but no one gives a fuck.

Remixing content's ideas into new things isn't new as you both pointed out. The criticism must balance between things that are done with similarities and those that just is almost exactly the same. In my personal opinion OP has a slight point but takes it too far making common tropes (I hate that word but there isn't a better one) a irredeemable offense. It's like complaining about Edward and Alphonse burning down their house at the start of their journey as a rip off of Record of Lodoss War.
Originally when I heard that Naruto and HxH are copies I took their word for it because I hated Naruto with a passion and never watched/read HxH.
but now that I did read HxH and Naruto is no longer the worst thing ever for me I can safely say that they are completely different manga and the comparisons are bullshit made by people grasping at straws.

>Gon is a literal Goku clone
>Killua is a retread of Hiei who was a Vegeta clone
>complain about others copying it
Dragon ball is a copy of journey to the west whats your point
>>156253821
>Sausake=Kurapika
this is an insult to Kurapika
>>156253821
>Hisoka=Orochimaru
So Hisoka is a child molesting kidnapper that wants to learn all powers in the world? Right. gtfo

first part of it is sort of true

Also the chunin exam's "collect the scrolls" part is basically a less imaginative version of the Hunter Exam's "collect the numbered plaques"
