I'm not talking about shows that are set in Europe or a Europe-type setting (Fullmetal Alchemist, SnK, etc.), but just shows that are set in Japan. Is it just to make them stand out from the mostly dark-haired cast? Was there some really old influential anime with blonde characters that the new shows are imitating?

Blonde anime characters are supposed to be foreigners or punks who bleach their hair.

When you draw manga your options for color of hair are basically black gray or white. Blonde is the most realistic hair color to use for white.

Mangaka laziness. Blond is just lines. Everything else requires screentone and/or ink, which takes time and effort to get right.
